### Path and HTTP methods
For relatively complex API calls that include path parameters, it's sometimes a good idea to provide an example so that users can visualize how the request is properly formed. This section is optional and includes examples that illustrate how the endpoint and path parameters fit together in the request. The following is an example of this section for the nodes stats API:
```json
GET /_nodes/stats
GET /_nodes/<node_id>/stats
GET /_nodes/stats/<metric>
GET /_nodes/<node_id>/stats/<metric>
GET /_nodes/stats/<metric>/<index_metric>
GET /_nodes/<node_id>/stats/<metric>/<index_metric>
```
### Path parameters ### Path parameters
While the API endpoint states a point of entry to a resource, the path parameter acts on the resource that precedes it. Path parameters come after the resource name in the URL.
