Useful optional inputs

dry_run — Read a free estimate before fetching sources or scheduling paid work.
Zero credits; cache status and availability are snapshots rather than guarantees.

Name	Required	Description	Example
`id`	yes	Monitor id	`mon_…`
`format`	no	csv (default) or json Accepted values: csv, json. Case, spaces, hyphens and underscores are interchangeable.	`csv`
`days`	no	Window, up to 365 days	`30`
`feedback`	no	Only findings with this verdict Accepted values: known, resolved, irrelevant, useful. Case, spaces, hyphens and underscores are interchangeable.	`useful`
`scope`	no	findings (default): the retained findings of the window. collected: every item one run collected, retained or not, with the decision and the reason; needs run_id, or takes the latest run. Runs before 5 September 2026 did not keep their collected items and say so. Accepted values: findings, collected. Case, spaces, hyphens and underscores are interchangeable.	`collected`
`run_id`	no	With scope=collected: the run to export. Defaults to the latest run.	`1396`
`dry_run`	no	Read a zero-credit estimate without fetching sources, running AI, or reserving credits. Cache status is a snapshot, not a guarantee at execution. Accepted values: 1, 0, true, false. Case, spaces, hyphens and underscores are interchangeable.	`1`

Response

Response fields and example

This example is illustrative, not a captured live response. Variable-cost operations may settle a charge different from the list price below. A successful response puts the platform payload in data and reports the exact credits used, remaining balance, request id and cache status beside it.

200 · application/json

{
  "success": true,
  "platform": "monitors",
  "endpoint": "/v1/monitors/export",
  "data": {
    "format": null,
    "filename": null,
    "content_type": null,
    "body": null,
    "rows": 0,
    "truncated": false
  },
  "credits_used": 0,
  "credits_remaining": 99,
  "request_id": "req_…",
  "cached": false
}

The example is illustrative and shows a documented subset of data. The fields below are optional across supported sources; nullable fields can also be absent. Preserve unknown values and accept additional fields.

Schema basis: reviewed response shaper. See schema coverage and validation limits.

Download the data JSON Schema. Validate response.data, not the whole envelope. A valid shape does not establish that every field or source record was returned.

Field inside data	Type	Meaning
`format`	`string \| null`	format
`filename`	`string \| null`	filename
`content_type`	`string \| null`	content type
`body`	`string \| null`	body
`rows`	`number \| null`	Nested response fields; optional unless explicitly documented.
`truncated`	`boolean \| null`	Nested response fields; optional unless explicitly documented.

Core response fields reviewed from the public response shaper. Fields vary by requested options; additive fields remain allowed.

Failures use the typed error envelope. A confirmed uncharged or refunded failure reports zero; a pending reconciliation can report an unknown charge. Read credits_used and error.details.billing_status, and keep request_id for recovery. Response contract · Error reference
