After retrieving the first page, the <code>page_token</code> will be present in the <code>metadata</code> section of the response.<br />For example, with <code>size=99</code>, <code>index=0</code> to <code>index=99</code> may be used. To load the next page, use the <code>page_token</code> value used in the response e.g. <code>?page-token=NDM0NTk0NTIyO</code> </p><h2>Creating resources</h2><p>As is generally the accepted practice with REST-ful APIs, creating a resource can be performed by sending an appropriately formatted POST request. Any ID provided for a new resource in a POST request <i>body</i> will simply be ignored (and a new one generated internally and returned as part of the resource in subsequent GET requests), and POST requests to URLs following a format similar to <code>.../resource/<ID></code> are unsupported and should respond with <code>415 Method Not Allowed</code>. All requests which successfully create a resource and respond with <code>201 Created</code> will contain a <code>Location</code> header the value of which is an absolute URI for the resource (the ID of which can be determined as the last section of the path in the given URI). For example:<br /><code>Location: https://us.api.insight.rapid7.com/ias/v1/scans/12345678-1234-5678-90AB-1234567890AB</code></p><h2>Date, Time and Timezone Support</h2><p>The value of date and date-time type properties are fixed to the common ISO-8601 format. Unless otherwise specified, all date or date-time data in response bodies are expressed in UTC, and it is also expected that data provided in request bodies are also expressed in UTC.</p><h3>Schedules and Blackouts</h3><p>The <code>first_start</code> and <code>first_end</code> properties of both Blackouts and Schedules, and the <code>last_start</code> property of Blackouts may be specified with a timezone. If the timezone is not specified, it is assumed to be UTC. For example:<br /><code>2019-08-12T14:00:00.000000Z[Asia/Tokyo]</code><br />It is also possible to specify the timezone as an offset of either <code>GMT</code> or <code>UTC</code>. For example:<br /><code>2019-09-04T15:00:00.000000Z[GMT+03:00]</code></p><table><thead><tr><th>Value</th><th>Format</th><th>Notes</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Date</td><td>YYYY-MM-DD</td><td>Defaults to 12 am UTC (if used for a date &amp; time)</td></tr><tr><td>Date &amp; time only</td><td>YYYY-MM-DD''T''hh:mm:ss[.nnn]</td><td>Defaults to UTC</td></tr><tr><td>Date &amp; time in UTC</td><td>YYYY-MM-DD''T''hh:mm:ss[.nnn]Z</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Date &amp; time with specific timezone</td><td>YYYY-MM-DD''T''hh:mm:ss[.nnn]Z[TimeZoneId]</td><td></td></tr></tbody></table><h2>Searching and Filtering</h2><p>One characteristic of a powerful API is support for complex search and filtering of resources using a flexible query language. It is entirely possible to provide basic search and filtering functionality on standard GET resource collection operations using HTTP query parameters, but this becomes restrictive when attempting to encode boolean logic. Other solutions are also possible but come with equally restrictive compromises. The most effective way to facilitate this complex search and filtering is to provide it as a top-level API with a robust Domain-Specific Language (DSL).</p><p>For simple data retrieval that supports paging and sorting functionality, use the traditional resource-specific GET collection operations; for more complex data retrieval that supports a user-crafted query DSL, use the global Search operation.</p><h2>Errors</h2><p>Any response from the API with an HTTP Status Code in the 4xx or 5xx range indicates an error. If in the 4xx range it indicates a client-side error, where in the 5xx range it indicates a server-side error. All responses indicating an error should be JSON formatted, and contain both a "status" and a "message" property indicating the cause of the error, a "r7-correlation-id" header should also always be returned in the format of a UUID, which uniquely identifies the HTTP exchange that took place and caused the error (this header is present on <i>every</i> request). On some occasions, an "error_code" property will be included in the response body, which can provide the support team further context into the cause of the error in cases where the message is not explicitly clear.</p><p>When contacting support about error responses received from the API, please attempt to include, at minimum:<ul><li>A description of the requests intent</li><li>The request URL</li><li>The request body</li><li>The error response body</li><li>The error response "r7-correlation-id" header</li></ul></p><h3>Validation Errors</h3><p>Specifically, when a response with an HTTP Status Code of 422 is returned, this indicates a validation error, almost always received in a response from a non-idempotent request (normally PUT, POST or DELETE). In this case, there should be an additional "errors" property included in the JSON response body that should describe the cause of the validation exception; this will almost always require a modification to the request body to resolve. </p>'
