# Get Datafit Plot Data

`GET /pipelines/datafits/{job_id}/plot_data`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.ionworks.com`
- URL: `https://api.ionworks.com/pipelines/datafits/{job_id}/plot_data`
- Auth: none declared

Return decimated trace data for a single data-fit validation plot.

Same behaviour as ``GET /validations/{job_id}/plot_data`` but accepts
a data-fit job ID. Both job types store ``validation_plot_config`` in the
same metadata blob format.

## Path parameters

- `job_id` string, uuid, required

## Query parameters

- `objective_name` string, required: Objective name within validation_plot_config
- `plot_index` integer: Index into the plots list for this objective
- `max_points` integer: Maximum points per trace
- `x_min` number, nullable: Lower x-range bound (inclusive)
- `x_max` number, nullable: Upper x-range bound (inclusive)

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- ValidationPlotDataResponse: Response from GET /pipelines/{validations|datafits}/{job_id}/plot_data. Contains decimated trace data for a single validation plot, filtered to the requested x-range and downsampled to at most ``max_points`` per trace.
  - `type` string, nullable
  - `traces` ValidationPlotTrace[], required
    - `name` string, required
    - `x` number[], required
    - `y` number[], required
  - `x_full_min` number, nullable
  - `x_full_max` number, nullable
  - `layout` object, required

## Other responses

- `422`: Validation Error

## Changes

- **2026-09-30** `ea3d377fec1a`: 1 breaking

- **2026-09-09** `48c041ad4800`: 1 info
  - added the optional property `type` to the response with the `200` status
