HTTP API via commandline (WGET)?

[gfgf 0]

Does anyone know how to initiate a library scan via the HTTP API using commandline, ideally WGET?

You need to send a POST request to http://localhost:8096/mediabrowser/ScheduledTasks/Running/2d67d886717cdade18d9640d4ebbb9cb.

 

There is no GET request method to do this.

I'd suggest using cURL instead of wget. 

 

curl --data "param1=value1&param2=value2" http://hostname/resource

Awesome. I did this and it didn't work. Is it because I have to be logged in, or because I did something wrong?

 

curl --data http://localhost:8096/mediabrowser/ScheduledTasks/Running/2d67d886717cdade18d9640d4ebbb9cb

 

Thanks
