https://sailpoint.api.identitynow.com/v2025/outliers/:outlierId/contributing-features

experimental

This API is currently in an experimental state. The API is subject to change based on feedback and further testing. You must include the X-SailPoint-Experimental header and set it to true to use this endpoint.

This API returns a list of contributing feature objects for a single outlier.

The object contains: feature name, feature value type, value, importance, display name (translated text or message key), description (translated text or message key), translation messages object.

Request

Path Parameters

outlierId stringrequired
The outlier id
Example: 2c918085842e69ae018432d22ccb212f

Query Parameters

limit int32
Possible values: <= 250
Max number of results to return. See V3 API Standard Collection Parameters for more information.
Default value: 250
Example: 250
offset int32
Offset into the full result set. Usually specified with limit to paginate through the results. See V3 API Standard Collection Parameters for more information.
Default value: 0
Example: 0
count boolean
If true it will populate the X-Total-Count response header with the number of results that would be returned if limit and offset were ignored.
Since requesting a total count can have a performance impact, it is recommended not to send count=true if that value will not be used.
See V3 API Standard Collection Parameters for more information.
Default value: false
Example: true
include-translation-messages string

Whether or not to include translation messages object in returned response

sorters comma-separated
Sort results using the standard syntax described in V3 API Standard Collection Parameters
Sorting is supported for the following fields: importance
Example: importance

Header Parameters

Use this header to enable this experimental API.
Default value: true
Example: true
