Get Azure VM status : "running , stopped" using resource manager deployment and rest api - rest

Question

i've deployed a vm using Resource Manager deployment model.
Using rest api as described here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/mt163682.aspx
i'm able to get informations about my VM. But i cannot see if the VM is running or not. I want that information to start/stop the VM Automatically via code.
Does anyone have tried that and get the VM powerstate?
best regards...
i make a GET using this URI
string.Format("https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/{0}/resourceGroups/{1}/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/{2}?api-version={3}", subscriptionID, resssourcegroup, vmname,apiversion);
apiversion is 2016-03-30.

Answer 1

The API call for this information is:
https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/{subscription-id}/resourceGroups/{resource-group-name}/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/{vm-name}/InstanceView?api-version={api-version}

Answer 2

Needed to use the second request uri "Get information about the instance view of a virtual machine" from the following url https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/mt163682.aspx to get the instance powerstate.
Thank you.

This is the link to the documentation where you can see the Status of the VM:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/compute/virtual-machines/instance-view?tabs=HTTP
This is an example of the output
"statuses": [
{
"code": "ProvisioningState/succeeded",
"level": "Info",
"displayStatus": "Provisioning succeeded",
"time": "2022-07-25T02:12:52.7726725+00:00"
},
{
"code": "PowerState/running",
"level": "Info",
"displayStatus": "VM running"
}
]
