Search Index Find By Inventory Path
Finds a managed entity based on its location in the inventory.
The path is separated by slashes ('/'). For example, a path should be of the form "My Folder/My Datacenter/vm/Discovered VM/VM1". A leading slash or trailing slash is ignored. Thus, the following paths all represents the same object: "a/b", "/a/b", "a/b/", and '/a/b/'. Slashes in names must be represented using %2f, following the standard URL syntax. Any object in the inventory can be retrieved using this method, including resource pools and hosts.
