TraceflowObservationListParameters (schema)

Name	Description	Type	Notes
component_name	Observations having the given component name will be listed. Observations of all component names will be listed if not given.	string
component_type	Observations having the given component type will be listed. Observations of all component types will be listed if not given.	TraceflowComponentType
cursor	Opaque cursor to be used for getting next page of records (supplied by current result page)	string
included_fields	Comma separated list of fields that should be included in query result Note - this parameter currently only works when used with the search APIs /policy/api/v1/search/query and /policy/api/v1/search/dsl. It is ignored for other list APIs.	string
page_size	Maximum number of results to return in this page (server may return fewer)	integer	Minimum: 0 Maximum: 1000 Default: "1000"
resource_type	The type of observations that will be listed. Prefix matching; e.g. TraceflowObservationReceived will also matches TraceflowObservationReceivedLogical. Observations of all types will be listed if not given.	TraceflowObservationType
sort_ascending		boolean
sort_by	Field by which records are sorted	string
transport_node_name	Observations having the given transport node name will be listed. Observations of all transport node names will be listed if not given.	string
