Hi,

I’m would like to use the REST API in order to GET the stream files actually present on my application.

This is the link that I use:

[http://localhost:8087/v2/servers/_defaultServer_/vhosts/_defaultVHost_/applications/test/streamfiles](http://localhost:8087/v2/servers/_defaultServer_/vhosts/_defaultVHost_/applications/test/streamfiles)

It return an empty array even if there are two stream fies present (using the web interface I can see them)

Thank you

Nicolò

Hi,

Make sure you are using the first example provided on [this page.](https://www.wowza.com/docs/stream-management-query-examples#getstreamfiles)

That should work. Ensure you adapt the command line for your application name and that your system meets the full requirements, such as running version 4.3.0 and above.
