#Harvest FSA for file access_time data

We have a FSA default template displaying top 20 volumes by size.
And we hard coded type=directory
Is it possible to make a table showing each file's last access_time?
In Nabox4
The API using is "/api/storage/volumes/<uuid>/files/.?return_metadata=false&fields=accessed_time&return_records=true&return_timeout=15"?
Can we create a custom rest template to make this happen? and also filter by the "path"?

@heavy breach Are these files in screenshot under root directory?

Yes,
And is it possible to change the directory
Ex:

api/storage/volumes/<uuid>/files/pd?return_metadata=false&fields=accessed_time&return_records=true&return_timeout=15

#

Files from the root directory

By default, Harvest collects directories only from the root-level directory. This is because examining each directory requires an additional API call, which can result in numerous calls when using Harvest. This differs from browsing directories through system manager. As a data collector, Harvest cannot inspect every folder. due to these API calls.

Harvest is configured to collect only the largest 100 directories by size. Collecting files within these directories would require an extra 100 API calls per volume. To optimize data collection, we need ONTAP to provide this information with fewer API calls for Harvest.

-> Collecting files within these directories would require an extra 100 API calls per volume
What you mean is that if we remove the &type=directory to get files data , it will require an extra 100 API calls which will impact the data collection?
