Retrieving Live Measures of a Component using cURL

To retrieve the measures of a component during the current measurement period through the REST API using cURL, the command should be specified in the following format:

curl -L -X POST "http://<eG Manager IP:Port>/api/eg/analytics/getLiveMeasure" -H "user:<eG username or domain/eG username>" -H "pwd:Base64 encoded password" -H "managerurl:http://<eG Manager IP:Port>" -–data-raw "{\"componentType\":\"name of component Type\",\”componentName\":\"name of the component:Port\",\"test\":\"name of test\", \"measure\":\"name of measure\",\"info\":\"Descriptor name\",\"showDisplayName\":\"true/false)\"}" -H "Content-Type:application/json"

Figure 2 shows an example of retrieving the current measures of a component using cURL.
