# Get Topology by ID

`GET /api/v1/topology/{id}`

## Path parameters

- `id` string, uuid, required

## Response `200`

Topology found

- ApiResponseTopology
  - `data` object
    - `edges` object
    - `network_id` string, uuid, required
    - `nodes` object
    - `options` TopologyOptions, required
      - `local` TopologyLocalOptions, required
        - `bundle_edges` boolean
        - `hide_edge_types` EdgeTypeDiscriminants[], required
        - `no_fade_edges` boolean, required
        - `show_minimap` boolean
        - `tag_filter` TopologyTagFilter — Filter settings for hiding entities by tag in topology visualization.
          - `hidden_host_tag_ids` string[] — Host tag IDs to hide (hosts with these tags will fade out)
          - `hidden_service_tag_ids` string[] — Service tag IDs to hide (services with these tags will be hidden from nodes)
          - `hidden_subnet_tag_ids` string[] — Subnet tag IDs to hide (subnets with these tags will fade out)
      - `request` TopologyRequestOptions, required
        - `container_rules` object
        - `element_rules` IdentifiedRuleElementRule[]
          - `id` string, uuid, required
          - `rule` union, required — Rules that organize nodes within a container into sub-groups.

              - …
            - object
              - …
            - 'ByHypervisor'
            - 'ByContainerRuntime'
            - 'ByStack'
            - 'ByTrunkPort' — Groups trunk ports (ports with tagged VLANs) into a "Trunk Ports" subcontainer. Higher priority than ByVLAN — prevents trunk ports from being grouped by VLAN.
            - 'ByVLAN' — Groups access ports by their native VLAN ID into per-VLAN subcontainers.
            - 'ByPortOpStatus' — Groups ports by operational status (Up, Down, etc.) into per-status subcontainers.
        - `hide_entities` object — Entity types hidden per view. Keyed by TopologyView, values are entity types (matching those declared as container/element/inline in the view's element_config). Hides every manifestation of the entity in that view — element nodes, container nodes, and inline rows on element cards. Supersedes the old `hide_ports` (L3-only, inline-only).
        - `hide_metadata_values` object — Generic per-(view, entity, filter) hide-set for metadata filters (Category, Virtualization, etc). Supersedes the old `hide_service_categories`; nested so JSON keys are strings all the way down.
        - `view` 'L2Physical' | 'L3Logical' | 'Workloads' | 'Application' — Which topology view is being rendered
    - `snapshot_id` string, uuid, nullable — FK to `snapshots.id`. NULL = live view; Some = snapshot row.
    - `created_at` string, date-time, required
    - `id` string, uuid, required
    - `updated_at` string, date-time, required
  - `error` string, nullable
  - `meta` ApiMeta, required — API metadata included in all responses
    - `api_version` integer, required — API version (integer, increments on breaking changes)
    - `server_version` string, required — Server version (semver)
  - `success` boolean, required
