How to retrieve detailed client profile limits using SEMP v1 API?

I am trying to fetch detailed information about client profiles using the SEMP v1 API. Here is the request I am currently sending:

<rpc>
    <show>
        <client-profile>
            <name>*</name>
            <vpn-name>default</vpn-name>
        </client-profile>
    </show>
</rpc>

This query provides the following response:

<rpc-reply semp-version="soltr/10_11_1VMR">
    <rpc>
        <show>
            <client-profile>
                <profiles>
                    <profile>
                        <name>#client-profile</name>
                        <message-vpn>default</message-vpn>
                        <num-users>2</num-users>
                    </profile>
                    ...
                </profiles>
            </client-profile>
        </show>
    </rpc>
    <execute-result code="ok"/>
</rpc-reply>

While this provides basic information about the client profiles, I need more detailed data, specifically the limits associated with client profiles, such as max-endpoints-per-client-username.

Question:
How can I modify my query or use a different approach to retrieve the limits for client profiles using the SEMP v1 API?

Any guidance, examples, or documentation references would be greatly appreciated!

Looking through the documentation, I can explain how to retrieve client profile information using SEMP v1:

The SEMP v1 API allows you to make XML-based requests over HTTP to retrieve information from PubSub+ event brokers. For client profile information:

  1. The request needs to be formatted as an XML document with an <rpc> root element
  2. The request should be sent via HTTP POST to the SEMP v1 endpoint (port 8080 for software event broker)
  3. Basic authentication credentials must be included in the request

However, the documentation does not provide the specific XML structure needed to retrieve client profile information and limits. The documentation suggests referring to the SEMP v1 schema file for the exact request format:

http://<broker>:8080/SEMP/v1/requestSchema.xsd

Here are the relevant documentation links for more details:

I recommend checking the schema file or considering using SEMP v2 instead, which provides a more modern REST API interface with better documentation.

Hi @Pascal , just add a <detail/> tag after the Message VPN block. That should do the trick..!
