HCP System Management Help
Here’s a sample metadata query API request that retrieves metadata for all objects that are:
•Flagged as replication collisions
•In the finance namespace owned by the europe tenant
The query uses an XML request body and requests results in XML format.
This request returns only the URL, version ID, operation type, and change time for the objects in the result set. The request specifies that the result set be sorted by object path in ascending order.
Request body in the XML file named FinanceCollisions.xml
