getStatistics

HTTP Request

GET /api/v1/tables/:tableReference/variables/:variableName/statistics
GET /api/v1/tables/:tableReference/uploads/:uploadReference/variables/:variableName/statistics

Variable statistics are typically computed the first time they are accessed, and afterwards are cached for future reference. If this endpoint is called on a variable without cached statistics, Redivis will attempt to compute statistics before returning the response. If, after 30 seconds, statistics have still not been computed, this endpoint will instead return a statistic object with empty attributes and status == "running".

Path parameters

Parameter
tableReference	A qualified reference to the table. See referencing resources for more information.
uploadReference	A qualified reference to the upload. Follows the form upload_name:id
variableName	The variable's name (case insensitive)

This endpoint extends the general API structure.

Authorization

Metadata access to the table is required. If a table's data is not public, your access token must have one of the following scopes:

• data.metadata

• data.data

• data.edit
