Find Reviews

Find access reviews in the system. The command uses the PV_REVIEW public view to find data. Any filters passed should apply to this public view.

GET https://instance.securid.com/aveksa/command.submit?cmd=findReviews

Request

Parameters

command	findReviews
format	`properties` - (Default) Returns the response as `key=value` pairs. When multiple objects are returned, values are comma-delimited: `key=value1,value2,value3`. `json` - Returns the response as JSON. `csv` - Returns the response as comma-separated values. `tsv` - Returns the response as tab-separated values. `xml` - Returns the response as XML.
delimiter	The delimiter to use between values for `csv` and `properties` formats
returnColumns	The names of the columns to return. `returnColumns` may be a CSV list of multiple column names. The parameter may also be listed multiple times (ie `returnColumns=col1,col2&returnColumns=col3,col4`) Refer to Columns table below.
returnMaxRows	The maximum number of objects to return
distinct	`true, false` Returns only distinct values, equivalent to the distinct keyword in SQL.
sortByColumns	The results will be sorted based on the columns listed using comma as the delimiter if multiple columns are specified. Refer to Columns table below.
sortDirection	Determines sorting order. `asc` for ascending, `desc` for descending. If not specified, the natural order returned by the database is used.
includeHeaderRow	`true, false` Include column headers when the return format is `csv` or `tsv`. (Default) `true`
ignoreCase	`true, false` Returns case-insensitive search results for specified filter parameters. (Default) `false`

Filter Parameters

Any column listed in the Columns table can be passed as a filter parameter to narrow results. Filters are matched against the PV_REVIEW public view.

Query logic

Scenario	Behavior
Two different parameters: `review_type=User&state=InProcess`	AND. Returns User reviews that are currently in process.
Same parameter repeated: `review_type=User&review_type=GlobalRole`	OR within that field. Returns User or GlobalRole reviews.
Mixed: `state=InProcess&review_type=User&review_type=GlobalRole`	(state is InProcess) AND (type is User or GlobalRole)

OR logic across different parameters is not supported

A single API call cannot return reviews where review_type=User OR state=InActionable. OR logic between different filter parameters is not supported.

Workaround: Make separate requests for each filter condition. Merge and deduplicate the results client-side.

Columns

id	[Primary Key] Unique review instance identifier
name	Review instance name
review_type	Type of review. Common values: `User` (user access review), `GlobalRole` (role review)
category	Review category (e.g., `Access Review`)
state	Current state of the review. Common values: `InProcess` (active), `InActionable` (awaiting action)
is_active	`True, False` Whether the review is currently active
review_definition_id	[Foreign Key referencing REVIEW_DEFINITION.ID] Definition this review instance was created from
owner_id	[Foreign Key referencing USERS.ID] User ID of the review owner
created_by	[Foreign Key referencing USERS.ID] User ID of who created the review
creation_date	Date and time the review was created
changed_date	Date and time the review was last modified
end_date	Date and time the review is scheduled to end
comments	Comments attached to the review
source_id	Source identifier if the review was triggered externally
source_type	How the review was triggered. `UserDefinedDefinition` = manually created from a review definition

Headers

Authorization	Bearer `token`
Accept	application/json
Content-Type	application/json

Response

Parameters

The API returns the requested columns specified by returnColumns as output. If returnColumns is unspecified then all columns listed will be returned.

Examples

All columns

Omit returnColumns to return every field for each review.
