Note

Changing the request method of the API call from POST to GET will retrieve the Telemetry System configuration currently deployed on each BIG-IP. You can use this GET request to view the full TS configuration at any time.


Attention

Before closing the “TS-2-A [bigip1] Configure TS for CloudWatch” tab or the Postman application, it is best to change the request method back to the original value of POST. Otherwise, you will get a message asking if you would like to save changes to the declaration.
