API request event

An API request event contains additional fields.

Field name Description Example
request parameters JSON format of API request { "param1": … }
response parameters JSON format of API response { "param1": … }
mutating Boolean indicating if this API call changes resource data true
apiVersion Version of the API called 2020-03-31

user agent User agent string of the request Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:74.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/74.0

The request ID field can be used to tie an API request event to corresponding CDP service events, because CDP Control Plane services propagate the request ID initially generated for an API request through all resulting service activity.
