Authorizations

​
Authorization
string
header
required

The access token received from the authorization server in the OAuth 2.0 flow.

Query Parameters

​
status
enum<string>
required

The status of the collaborations to retrieve.

Available options:
pending
​
fields
string[]

A comma-separated list of attributes to include in the response. This can be used to request fields that are not normally returned in a standard response.

Be aware that specifying this parameter will have the effect that none of the standard fields are returned in the response unless explicitly specified, instead only fields for the mini representation are returned, additional to the fields requested.

​
offset
integer<int64>
default:0

The offset of the item at which to begin the response.

Queries with offset parameter value exceeding 10000 will be rejected with a 400 response.

​
limit
integer<int64>

The maximum number of items to return per page.

Required range: x <= 1000

Response

Returns a collection of pending collaboration objects.

If the user has no pending collaborations, the collection will be empty.

A list of collaborations.

​
total_count
integer<int64>

One greater than the offset of the last entry in the entire collection. The total number of entries in the collection may be less than total_count.

This field is only returned for calls that use offset-based pagination. For marker-based paginated APIs, this field will be omitted.

Example:

5000

​
limit
integer<int64>

The limit that was used for these entries. This will be the same as the limit query parameter unless that value exceeded the maximum value allowed. The maximum value varies by API.

Example:

1000

​
offset
integer<int64>

The 0-based offset of the first entry in this set. This will be the same as the offset query parameter.

This field is only returned for calls that use offset-based pagination. For marker-based paginated APIs, this field will be omitted.

Example:

2000

​
entries
Collaboration · object[]

A list of collaborations.
