Can not access https://<vCenter IP>/apiexplorer

Products

• VMware vCenter Server

Issue/Introduction

When SSH to vCenter, the curl command shows error:

Environment

vSphere vCenter Server 8.x

Cause

https://<vCenter IP>/apiexplorer is not the correct URL for vCenter.

Resolution

It is not need to fix it. Just use url 'https://<vCenter IP>/ui/app/devcenter/api-explorer' instead. vCenter can access the API explorer interface normally.

'curl -ik https://<vCenter IP>/ui/app/devcenter/api-explorer' return 200, the result is normal.
