Issue/Introduction

The documentation at https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/ca-enterprise-software/it-operations-management/dx-apm-saas/SaaS/api-reference/apm-rest-api/Universe.html  provides method to get definition of all universes in a tenant or a single universe given it's ID.   

Is there a method to request a JSON universe definition given the name of the universe?

At present to get universe definition from a name (user's have no knowledge of the VIEW IDs), requires the following sequence when using curl to make API calls:

  curl -s  -X 'GET' 'https://apmgw.dxi-na1.saas.broadcom.com/xxx/apm/atc/api/universe' -H 'Authorization: Bearer --REDACTED--' -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' '

process JSON result to extract the ID of the universe with required name, in this case ID is VIEW1

  curl -s  -X 'GET' 'https://apmgw.dxi-na1.saas.broadcom.com/xxx/atc/views/view/VIEW1' -H 'Authorization: Bearer --REDACTED--' -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache''

Environment
