JSON format is used for getting the results of resource information (GET).

The supported character encoding is UTF-8.

Request format

  • If you specified a null character for a string-type attribute, the value of the attribute is assumed to be null.
  • If you specified a null character for an attribute whose type is not string, the attribute is assumed to be unspecified.

Response format

  • If the API processing succeeds, a response is returned in JSON format.
  • If the processing fails, depending on the contents of the error, a response in HTML format, instead of JSON format, might be returned.

    To resolve the error based on the HTTP status code in the program, check the value of Content-Type in the response header.
