Grouping

Learn how to group results from the Endor Labs REST API.

There are many scenarios where it is useful to group the objects returned by the Endor Labs REST API in different ways. Like filter keys, a group-aggregation-paths key is used to specify the field, or fields, by which to group the objects, using a dot-delimited path. For example, the following request returns the count of findings for each severity level:

endorctl api list --resource Finding \
  --filter "spec.finding_categories contains FINDING_CATEGORY_VULNERABILITY" \
  --group-aggregation-paths "spec.level" \
  --timeout 60s

curl --get \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $ENDOR_TOKEN" \
  --header "Request-Timeout: 60" \
  --data-urlencode "list_parameters.filter=spec.finding_categories contains FINDING_CATEGORY_VULNERABILITY" \
  --data-urlencode "list_parameters.group.aggregation_paths=spec.level" \
  https://api.endorlabs.com/v1/namespaces/$ENDOR_NAMESPACE/findings \

Group by path

The following options are available to group objects based on the value of a field in a given path.

Option Description
group-aggregation-paths Specify one or more fields to group objects by.

Group by path example

Here is an example using all options simultaneously to group package versions by call graph resolution error, list the uuids of the package versions in each group, return the number of different ecosystems of the package versions in each group, and list the different ecosystems of the package versions in each group:

endorctl api list --resource PackageVersion \
  --filter "spec.resolution_errors.call_graph exists" \
  --group-aggregation-paths "spec.resolution_errors.call_graph.status_error" \
  --group-show-aggregation-uuids \
  --group-unique-count-paths "spec.ecosystem" \
  --group-unique-value-paths "spec.ecosystem" \
  --timeout 60s

Group by time

The Endor Labs REST API also provides options to group objects by a given time interval. Common time fields include meta.create_time and meta.update_time, but you can sort objects based on any time field.

For example, to group objects based on create time in 2 week intervals, set the aggregation path to meta.create_time, the time interval to GROUP_BY_TIME_INTERVAL_WEEK and the group size to 2.

The following options are available to group objects based on the value of a time field in a given path:

List Parameter Description
group_by_time.aggregation_paths Group the objects based on this time field.
group_by_time.interval The time interval to group the objects by.
group_by_time.group_size The time interval size to group the objects by.
group_by_time.start_time Beginning of the time period to group objects.
group_by_time.end_time End of the time period to group objects.
group_by_time.show_aggregation_uuids Get the uuids of the objects in each group.

For the complete list of all HTTP list parameters, see list parameters.

Time intervals

The following time intervals are supported:

Value Description
GROUP_BY_TIME_INTERVAL_YEAR Year
GROUP_BY_TIME_INTERVAL_QUARTER Quarter
GROUP_BY_TIME_INTERVAL_MONTH Month
GROUP_BY_TIME_INTERVAL_WEEK Week
GROUP_BY_TIME_INTERVAL_DAY Day
GROUP_BY_TIME_INTERVAL_HOUR Hour
GROUP_BY_TIME_INTERVAL_MINUTE Minute
GROUP_BY_TIME_INTERVAL_SECOND Second

Group by time example

The following example requests the uuids of all critical findings, grouped by create time in two week intervals:
