Thanks man. That works wonderfully. Not sure how I missed the root services section.

Is there a way to query the API to see what version of ambari the server is running? This would make auto-negotiation in the client easy, so it can automatically account for version differences. If this doesn't exist, I can open a JIRA to have it added. We have a dev on the team that is planning on doing some contributions to the server code soon. 2. Is there any documentation of user privileges? Like, how do I add privileges to a new user via the API? What privileges are possible to assign (maybe this is retrievable via a different URL)? If there's an easier way to find this information, let me know so I can just look there in the future. I can't seem to find any authoritative source in the code for what URLs exist and what parameters they expect, but maybe I just am searching for the wrong thing. Thanks in advance.
