Hi @mike_bronson7 .

I think you need to continue here:-

Thanks

but I am asking diff , we want API that ask about specific service as HDFS or YARN , etc 

this post that you mentioned ( https://community.cloudera.com/t5/Support-Questions/how-to-know-if-any-service-in-ambari-cluster-nee... ) is about all services that required restart 

note  -  what we want is API that ask the specific service if required restart or not

Can you run the below it should give the desired response

curl -u admin:admin -H "X-Requested-By:ambari" -X GET "http://<ambari-server>:<port>/api/v1/clusters/<clustername>/host_components?HostRoles/stale_configs=false&fields=HostRoles/service_name

Please let me know

I get A long list of all services , , any way not see there the HDFS

but what we want is to verify only specific one service

I will not have access  to my environment  for 4 days as I am traveling but  I think you can filter using 

service_name=HDFS

 I need to test that but that's the way

Dear Shelton ,

enjoy your vacation , and be careful from the corona -:)

[#8]

any way just for your information we get that

curl -u admin:admin -H "X-Requested-By:ambari" -X GET "http://master_node:8080/api/v1/clusters/HDP/host_components?HostRoles/stale_configs=false&fields=HostRoles/service_name=HDFS"
{
"status" : 400,
"message" : "Unable to compile query predicate: Invalid Query Token: token='=', previous token type=VALUE_OPERAND"

If you just want to find out specific services like HDFS / HIVE /SPARK2 to know whether they require restart or not then you can do this using filtering option service_name.in(xxx,yyy,zzz)

# curl -u admin:admin -H "X-Requested-By: ambari" -X GET "ttp://kerlatest1.example.com:8080/api/v1/clusters/KerLatest/host_components?HostRoles/stale_configs=true&HostRoles/service_name.in(HIVE,HDFS,SPARK2)"

Various Options to get Stale Config Component/Service details.
Similarly there are few other variants of the API call to find out and list the Services/Individual components which require restart.

# curl -u admin:admin -H "X-Requested-By: ambari" -X GET  "ttp://kerlatest1.example.com:8080/api/v1/clusters/KerLatest/host_components?HostRoles/stale_configs=true&fields=HostRoles/service_name,HostRoles/host_name"

# curl -u admin:admin -H "X-Requested-By: ambari" -X GET "ttp://kerlatest1.example.com:8080/api/v1/clusters/KerLatest/host_components?HostRoles/stale_configs=true"

# curl -u admin:admin -H "X-Requested-By: ambari" -X GET "ttp://kerlatest1.example.com:8080/api/v1/clusters/KerLatest/host_components?HostRoles/stale_configs=true&fields=HostRoles/service_name"

How to restart All Stale Configurations using API call.

# curl -u admin:admin -H "X-Requested-By: ambari" -X POST -d  '{"RequestInfo":{"command":"RESTART","context":"Restart all required services","operation_level":"host_component"},"Requests/resource_filters":[{"hosts_predicate":"HostRoles/stale_configs=true"}]}' "ttp://kerlatest1.example.com:8080/api/v1/clusters/KerLatest/requests"

.

Please change the Ambari Hostname/port and Cluster name in the above API calls.
I have changed "http://" to "ttp://"  Please correct that protocol prefix before using the above mentioned API calls.
