This function is used to get detailed information about a particular asset.

This is part of the core API.

This includes live information, media files and relationships that the asset has with its neighbours. It's the most complete information available about the asset.

If you only require properties, the function /api/asset/info is noticeably faster, as it doesn't have to fetch extended properties or media items.

Note that either asset or artag must be specified.
