Note about API metadata
The API uses the same metadata structure for all endpoints, but not every field applies to every endpoint. Fields such as paging details (for example Limit, Offset and TotalRowCount) and IsFiltered are only returned by endpoints that support them. Fields that do not apply are not included in the actual response.
