An object ID is used to uniquely identify a resource.

An object ID is used when specifying a specific resource in a URL. To specify an object ID, execute the GET operation and then obtain the object ID from the execution results.

Example: If the object ID of a QoS group is 10
qos-groups/10
Note:

When the GET operation is performed to obtain an object ID, the REST API server sometimes returns a value encoded according to RFC 3986, as the value of the attribute obtained by the GET operation. To use the object ID obtained by performing the GET operation in a request of another operation, use the object ID without decoding it.
