Parameters

Name In Type Required Description
start query string,null(date-time) false Start of the period to retrieve monitoring data, defaults to 7 days ago from the end of the period. Note: this field only accepts top of the hour RFC3339 datetime strings, for example: 2019-08-01T00:00:00Z.
end query string,null(date-time) false End of the period to retrieve monitoring data, defaults to the next top of the hour. Note: this field only accepts top of the hour RFC3339 datetime strings, for example: 2019-08-01T00:00:00Z.
bucketSize query string false Time duration of buckets
modelId query string false The ID of the model to retrieve the statistics for.
fairnessMetric query string,null false The name of the fairness metric to compute fairness over time.
protectedFeature query string false Name of the protected feature. When present, will return per class fairness score of the protected feature, otherwise returning fairness score of all protected features.
orderBy query string false The type of FairnessScore to order the response by.
includePrivilegedClass query string false Always include privileged class in response.
onlyStatisticallySignificant query string false Include only statistically significant attributes.
limit query integer false Max number of features in response.
offset query integer false Number of features to offset in response.
deploymentId path string true Unique identifier of the deployment.
