How to get Json result from Infotable in thingworx while using any rest api of thingworx

You need to add header

Accept

application/json

Then the response will be in json format. Not sure if this was the question.

What also works (but is not so nice) is to add "<host>/Thingworx/Groups?Accept=application/json" to the url. You can also add maxItems=<number> as by default only 500 items will be returned.

Where exactly "maxItems=<number>" has to be added ? Is ii in header or in url, please give some example ..

Hey @KP_9595031,

I just know of the URL parameter maxItems. Example:

- "<host>/Thingworx/Things?Accept=application/json&maxItems=99999" 

If you use more than one parameter in the url you need to add the additionals ones with '&'. If you only want to use maxItems in url and Accept as a header it would be like this

- "<host>/Thingworx/Things?maxItems=99999" (+Accept header)

Hope that helps!
