Re: Set root level access policies using NiFi REST API
Anything you can do from the UI you can do from the REST API.
You can open something like Chrome Dev tools and watch the network tab
which performing the desired action in the UI. Then you can see what
API calls the UI makes.

Thank you. I used Chrome developers tool to track all API calls.
I added all the steps in my blogs. It is needed by many users.

You can also use tools like the NiFi CLI [1] or community-provided tools like NiPyAPI [2] to exercise the REST API via command-line actions rather than having to execute individual curl commands, etc.
