You will need first to identify the Ambari Service and Component name to be used in the API, this for sure will also bring down the Metrics collector

curl -u admin:admin get http://<AMBARI_SERVER>:8080/api/v1/clusters/<CLUSTER_NAME>/services 

Replace the particular service below <Service_name> with the previous output eg AMBARI_METRICS

Stop AMBARI_METRICS

curl -u admin:admin  -H 'X-Requested-By: ambari' -X PUT -d '{"RequestInfo": {"context" :"Stop service "}, "Body": {"ServiceInfo": {"state": "INSTALLED"}}}' http://<AMBARI_SERVER_HOSTNAME>:8080/api/v1/clusters/<CLUSTER_NAME>/services/<Service_name>;

The service will stop check the Ambari UI

Hope that helps!!
