  title: Drata Devices API
  description: '### What''s New in V2

    - Support for Custom Fields

    - Get and acknowledge user''s assigned policies

    - Payloads are streamlined to include only the essential information. You can expand related objects and collections using the `expand` query parameter.

    - Cursor-based pagination for greater efficiency and stability with large datasets


    ### Getting Started

    Please visit our help article to learn how to create an API key.


    ### Upgrading From Version 1

    API V2 is designed to provide a faster an more flexible way of accessing Drata. There are several differences from V1:

    - The listing endpoints now use **cursor-based pagination**. This provides faster responses and ensures that all records can be retrieved even, if they are changed during the process.


    ```javascript

    async function fetchAll() {

    // The first request doesn''t send a value for the cursor.

    let cursor = undefined;

    do {

    const query = new URLSearchParams({ cursor });

    const resp = await fetch(

    `https://public-api.drata.com/public/v2/users?${query}`,

    {

    method: ''GET'',

    headers: { Authorization: ''Bearer '' }

    }

    );

    const data = await resp.json();

    console.log(data);


    // If there''s a cursor value returned, then there are more results.

    // Pass that back as a query parameter to get the next page of data.

    cursor = data?.pagination?.cursor;

    } while (cursor)

    }

    fetchAll();

    ```

    - You''ll notice smaller responses. Most endpoints accept an `expand` query parameter that let''s you specify which related objects and collections you want to expand.'
