# /show/resource/objects

```
URL: http://<db.host>:<db.port>/show/resource/objects
```

Returns information about the internal sub-components (tiered objects) which
use resources of the system. The request can either return results from
actively used objects (default) or it can be used to query the status of the
objects of a given list of tables. Returns detailed information about the
requested resource objects.

    <ParamField body="limit">
      An integer indicating the maximum number of results to be returned, per rank, or (-1) to indicate that the maximum number of results allowed by the server should be returned.
