/v1/model/attributes/{uuid}Read an effective attribute
operation ID: get_v1_model_attributes_by_uuid
Overview
Read an effective attribute. The model API describes assets, attributes, bindings, templates, views, registries, and governed changes that give series data its operational meaning.
When to use it
- Use it when an application needs to read an effective attribute.
- Use it when a modeling tool is building, governing, resolving, or inspecting the asset and attribute hierarchy.
Quick example
Set the base URL and replace generated identifiers or credentials with values from your installation.
cURL
curl --request GET \
--url "$ORDINATE_URL/v1/model/attributes/00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000001" \
--header "Authorization: Bearer $ORDINATE_TOKEN"Expected output · 200
Effective attribute
Example 200 output
{

}The cURL request supplies the documented path and query values and asks OrdinateDB to read an effective attribute. The documented 200 response is effective attribute.
How it works
Assets form the composition hierarchy, attributes describe values on those assets, and time-bounded bindings connect attributes to stored series.
