Finding subsites from the complete sharepoint url path

Hi,

I am trying to upload a document to SharePoint federated server and managed servers using curl.

My url will look like,

SharePoint Federated server url : https://abc.domain.com/teams/subsites/Documents/

SharePoint managed server url : https://abcd.domain.com/Documents/test

In order to get the request digest value, we need to send request to _api/contextinfo with full site url(root site + subsite). Is there any way to find whether the given SharePoint path has subsites programmatically?

    Hi @Sanjay Kumar R ,

    You don't need to find the subsites, use the complete sharepoint url path to send request to _api/contextinfo also works. Like the below:

    https://abc.domain.com/teams/subsites/Documents/_api/contextinfo  
    

    Below is my test in PostMan:
