How to get Solr Core Admins API response in JSON

Question

Solr core admin API returns response in XML like the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<response>
   <lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">0</int><int name="QTime">2155</int></lst><str name="core">test</str>
</response>

I am wondering if there is a way to get this back in JSON.

Answer 1

You need to append the link with &wt=json.

This will give you the output in JSON format.
