pageNum integer Page number (1-index based). 1
itemsPerPage integer Number of items to return per page, up to a maximum of 500. 100
pretty boolean Indicates whether the response body should be in a prettyprint format. false
envelope boolean

For endpoints that return a list of results, the results object is an envelope. Ops Manager adds the status field to the response body.

 None
