REST API. How to get an attribute of a user

Question

With https://:9710/gwadmin-service/domains//postoffices/:9710/gwadmin-service/diagnostics/object/ USER...testUser I have no luck. What can be done to retrieve only on attribute? Best regards, Uwe.

Hi Rob, 
 that was very helpful and exactly what I was looking for! 
 With my test data and used with curl this URL produced: doms01,pols01,name,visibility ,,SpechtB-S01,SYSTEM 
 Thank you very much! Best regards, Uwe.

Using the URL like that just shows the full "record" so no filter there but you could use this 
 https://gwserver:9710/gwadmin-service/list/user.csv?attrs=domain,postoffice,name,visibility&filter=name%20eq%20%27userID%27 
 
 where %20 is a space and %27 is a single quote The above will create a csv file with the columns as in the attrs and for the user equal to the name provided, without the filter= all users in the system will be in the csv file. Also you can filter on there things like PO etc 
 Using the URL as you mentioned in an application/script you could parse the json data and get the visibility from there, the data you can see simply using Curl like this from a Linux server command line curl -k --user admin:novell -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://gwserver:9710/gwadmin-service/domains/DOM/postoffices/PO/users/userID
