Errors trying to restart Sidecars via API

I found the correct json body in a recent forum post:

Sidecar Administration using REST API

Hi, I am trying to apply a configuration and collector to a sidecar using the REST API. I’m using the api-browser to do it for now just to learn the api. I am making the following request. However, I am not sure what the “action” string is. When doing from the web, I can see the “apply” and “remove” actions. [sidecar-admin-action-api] Is this the correct way of adding configuration_id and collector_id using the REST API? I tried searching around but could not find any info. I’ve also looke…

{
  "action": "restart",
  "collectors": [
    {
      "sidecar_id": "8a62dd0b-4043-4397-a776-994652105d0e",
      "collector_ids": [ "5e15b597fef274241dcb74c7" ]
    }
  ]
}
