Retrieve List of Hierarchies

Typically, you create new hierarchies in vCenter Chargeback whenever new customer accounts are created
and schedule reports to track resource usage for these accounts. To retrieve a list of hierarchies based on their
names or on the time of their creation, you can use the Search API.
To retrieve a list of hierarchies
1 Call the Search API by using the following URL in your program.
POST <API base URL>/search
2 In the request XML, use the following search criteria to get the hierarchy by name.
<Criteria type="AND">
<Filter name="hierarchyName" type="EQUAL" value="TestHierarchy" />
</Criteria>
For more information on all the available search filters, refer vCenter Chargeback API Reference Guide.
The following is an example request XML.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Request>
<SearchQueries>
<SearchQuery id="hierarchy">
</SearchQuery>
</SearchQueries>
</Request>
If the operation is successful, the response XML provides details of the retrieved hierarchies.
