Best practices

Follow these best practices when using the Endor Labs REST API.

Using endorctl

Optimize queries

  • Use the count flag if you only need the total number of objects matching the query.
  • Use grouping if you only need the number of objects per unique value of a given field, or a set of fields.
  • Use field-masks to return only the fields you need.
  • Filter on common fields such as uuid or meta.name before resource kind specific fields.
