Adaptive cards
Endpoints
Retrieves Adaptive Cards for in-app metrics. Supports fetching a single card by metric ID or multiple cards by a list of metric IDs. Supports filtering by app IDs, measures, dimensions, categories, breakdown dimensions, analysis types, and triggered time range. When filtering by measures, use the appIds parameter to scope results to specific apps, as the same measure expression can exist across multiple apps.
When called without any filter parameters, only the top-ranked result per metric is returned. When any filtering parameter is supplied (metricIds, dimensions, measures, appIds, breakdowns, analysisTypes, comparisonPeriods, timeRangeStart, timeRangeEnd), ranking is not applied and all matching results are returned.

Header Parameters
- AuthorizationstringRequired
JWT containing tenant credentials.
Query Parameters
- analysisTypesarray of strings
Filter by analysis type. Repeat the parameter to include multiple types. When this parameter is present, all matching results are returned regardless of ranking.
Values may be any of: "recordHigh""recordLow""aboveModel""belowModel""spikesUp""spikesDown""newBaseLine""trendChanges"
- appIdsarray of strings
Filter by app ID(s). Use this to scope results to specific apps. When combined with measures, returns only cards matching BOTH criteria (AND logic). Repeat the parameter to supply multiple app IDs (OR logic within appIds).
Recommendation: Use consistent parameter order for better HTTP cache hit rates:
- . appIds (if present)
- . measures (if present)
- . other filters
- . pagination (limit, next, prev)
Example - One app, multiple measures:
?appIds=app-123&measures=Sum(Sales)&measures=Avg(Revenue)&measures=Count(Orders)Example - Multiple apps, one measure:
?appIds=app-retail&appIds=app-wholesale&measures=Sum(Sales)Example - Multiple apps, multiple measures:
?appIds=app-sales&appIds=app-hr&measures=Sum(Revenue)&measures=Avg(Salary) - breakdownsarray of strings
Filter by one or more breakdown selections in the form
dimension:value(exampleRegion:EMEA). Values are selected from the UI dropdown — not free text — and should match available dimension/value pairs. Repeat the parameter to supply multiple breakdowns; results match any of the provided breakdown pairs. - categoriesarray of strings
Filter by category IDs from the business glossary. Category filtering is not currently applied to the result set.
- comparisonPeriodsarray of strings
Filter by comparison period. Example values:
D,W,M,Q,Y. When this parameter is present, all matching results are returned regardless of ranking.Values may be any of: "D""W""M""Q""Y"
- dimensionsarray of strings
Filter by dimension(s). Matching is case-sensitive; leading and trailing whitespace will be trimmed. Repeat the parameter to supply multiple dimensions.
- limitinteger
The maximum number of resources to return for a request. The limit must be an integer between 1 and 100 (inclusive).
- measuresarray of strings
Filter by measure(s). Matching is case-sensitive; leading and trailing whitespace will be trimmed. Repeat the parameter to supply multiple measures.
- metricIdsarray of strings
Filter by metric ID. Repeat the parameter to supply multiple IDs. When omitted, returns cards for all metrics visible to the caller.
- nextinteger
The numeric offset to the next page of resources. Provide either the next or prev parameter, but not both.
- previnteger
The numeric offset to the previous page of resources. Provide either the next or prev parameter, but not both.
- sortstring
The field to sort by, with +/- prefix indicating sort order
Can be one of: "creationTime""+creationTime""-creationTime"
- timeRangeEndstring
Exclusive upper bound for filtering by analysis result end time. Use ISO 8601 format.
- timeRangeStartstring
Inclusive lower bound for filtering by analysis result end time. Use ISO 8601 format.
- typestring
Filter by Adaptive Card category. When omitted, cards from all categories are returned.
Can be one of: "measures""dimensions""breakdowns"
