Magnolia 5.6 reached end of life on June 25, 2020. This branch is no longer supported, see End-of-life policy.
This page describes the delivery endpoint version 1 for obtaining JCR data as JSON. The endpoint provides two methods that can be called with HTTP GET. You can only create a single configuration that is required to use it.
Version 1 of the delivery endpoint is deprecated. We recommend using version 2 instead.
Returns one node by a given path, including its properties and child nodes down to a certain depth.
GET <magnolia-base-path>/.rest/delivery/{endpointPrefix}/v1/{path}
Parameter | Description | Data type |

Get the node of the first component in the main area of the /travel/about page.
curl -X GET 'http://localhost:8080/magnoliaAuthor/.rest/delivery/website/v1/travel/about/main/00' \ -u superuser:superuser
Returns a list of nodes matching a query composed of the query parameters provided. You can also apply filters to the query.
GET <magnolia-base-path>/.rest/delivery/{endpointPrefix}/v1?param1=value1¶m2=value2&...
Use any of the optional query parameters or none.

queryNodes provides a filtering mechanism. Filters are added as request parameters. Filter values must be properly URL-encoded. You can use multiple filters within the same request.
The filter parameter has the following format: property[operator]=value
Example filter used in a URL:
https://example.com/.rest/delivery/pages/v1?title[like]=tour
| Operator | Meaning |
|---|---|
eq | = |
ne | <> |
gt | > |
lt | < |
lte | <= |
gte | >= |
in | IN |
not-in | NOT IN |
Can be used with:

null |
The value can be either The operator can be used with any property. |
Property filter
Filter for a node property. The property value must be an exact match.
author=Magnolia%20Travels
@name property filter
Filter by a node name.
@name=travel
@ancestor filter
Find nodes for which the path provided is the ancestor. The path must be absolute in the given workspace of the given workspace prefix.
@ancestor=/travel/about/careers/marketing-associate
If no operator is provided, eq is used by default.
The value in the filter parameter is treated as String.
Use brackets to pass an operator, for example [eq], [ne], [lt], and so on.
For in and not-in, a range symbol ~ (the tilde) should be provided, for example:
https://example.com/.rest/delivery/pages/v1?mgnl:created[in]=2018-01-01~2018-02-01
price[in]=100~200 is interpreted as price >= 100 AND price <= 200.Date: yyyy-MM-dd

Datetime: yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSXXX

If a filter can take multiple possible values which must match, use | (OR):
@name=travel|about
Find webpages in the Travel Demo which were last modified before or on June 3, 2015:
curl -X GET 'http://localhost:8080/magnoliaAuthor/.rest/delivery/website/v1?mgnl:lastModified\[lte\]=2015-06-03' \ -u superuser:superuser
\ ) for the command to work correctly in bash.Find webpages with either "Customer Experience Agent" or "Customer Experience Supervisor" as the title. This can be done in two ways:
curl -X GET 'http://localhost:8080/magnoliaAuthor/.rest/delivery/website/v1?title=Customer%20Experience%20Agent|Customer%20Experience%20Supervisor' \ -u superuser:superuser
curl -X GET 'http://localhost:8080/magnoliaAuthor/.rest/delivery/website/v1?title\[like\]=Customer%20Experience%20%25' \ -u superuser:superuser
\ ) for the command to work correctly in bash.In the website workspace, find all nodes for which /travel/about/careers is the ancestor:
curl -X GET \ 'http://localhost:8080/magnoliaAuthor/.rest/delivery/website/v1?@ancestor=/travel/about/careers' \ -u superuser:superuser
Find nodes in the tours workspace that contain the keyword "beach". Return the results in the descending order based on the location property and restrict the number of results to three:
curl -X GET 'http://localhost:8080/magnoliaAuthor/.rest/delivery/trips/v1?q=beach&orderBy=location%20desc&limit=3' \ -u superuser:superuser
Find a tour with the description "Get photobombed by a Sea Turtle":
curl -X GET \ 'http://localhost:8080/magnoliaAuthor/.rest/delivery/trips/v1?description=Get%20photobombed%20by%20a%20Sea%20Turtle' \ -u superuser:superuser
The delivery endpoint requires a configuration, or it cannot deliver content. Version 1 of the delivery endpoint can only have one configuration. You can decorate the definition. Add the configuration to the Properties: required Must be optional, default is Must be required The map defining at least one or more endpoint prefixes. required Defines an endpoint prefix where requests are routed and handled according to the associated workspace parameter below. The value can be an arbitrary name (no special characters allowed), or it can be a real workspace name. If it is not a real workspace name, you must provide the sub property optional The name of the JCR workspace to deliver content from.
