What's a way to obtain the TSUIDs in the database using the OTSBD API?

[diegoquintanav]

I've read in http://opentsdb.net/docs/build/html/user_guide/uids.html that

When a data point is written to OpenTSDB, the row key is formatted as <metric_UID><tagk1_UID><tagv1_UID>[...<tagkN_UID><tagvN_UID>]

This tsuid value is needed in other queries but I can't manage to retrieve them using the API over HTTP. What's a query to obtain these values mapped to their metrics and tags?

Thanks

/api/uid/tsmeta may help. http://opentsdb.net/docs/build/html/api_http/uid/tsmeta.html

GET requests accept tsuid or metric as parameter and returns tsmeta which includes tsuid.

e.g.,
http://localhost:4242/api/uid/tsmeta?m=sys.cpu.nice&dc=lga
