/v1/model/views/{uuid}/treeRead a view tree
operation ID: get_v1_model_views_by_uuid_tree
Overview
Read a view tree. 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 a view tree.
- 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.

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