How to Identify whether Template or Container created on VDB through REST API Calls.
Please share the appropriate API call. I will be having the VDB Name. I had to identify with the VDB name whether Template or Container created on the VDB via REST API calls.

Hello Ramesh,
                      There is no way to identify template or container is created via rest api call or through GUI, as in any case end result is same.

Let me rephrase my question. I will not have access to Delphix GUI. I will have access via REST Interface. If a VDB is created. How to determine whether Template or Container created on the VDB. Which API call I need to make and pass the VDB to check template or Container exists.

Hello Ramesh,
                     If you are looking for a list instead of for a specific container then there are two parameters for the database list operation that can be used        "noJSDataSource": {
                "description": "Restrict databases to those which are not part of a Jet Stream data layout (data " +
                    "template or data container). This option is mutually exclusive with the " +
                    "\"noJSContainerDataSource\" option.",
                "type": "boolean"
            },
            "noJSContainerDataSource": {
                "description": "Restrict databases to those which are not part of a Jet Stream data container. This " +
                    "option is mutually exclusive with the \"noJSDataSource\" option.",
                "type": "boolean"
            };

Example API calls:

GET /resources/json/delphix/database?noJSDataSource=true
#this will list the objects not part of jetStream

GET /resources/json/delphix/database?noJSContainerDataSource=true
#this will list the containers not part of jetStream
