Front Ends, Remove URLs, and Relative OneBoxes

Retrieve, update, and delete front ends, remove URLs, and relative OneBox modules for a search
appliance using the frontend feed. A relative OneBox is a OneBox module that you assign to work with
a front end. Remove URLs are URL patterns that you want to exclude from appearing in an index for a
front end.

Retrieving Front Ends, Remove URLs, and Relative OneBoxes

To get front end information for a search appliance, send an authenticated GET request to the frontend
feed URL:

http://Search_Appliance:8000/feeds/frontend

The following result is a feed that includes current front ends values for a search appliance:
