## Query parameters

- **`integrated_account_id`** _(string, required)_
  The ID of the integrated account to use for the request.
- **`truto_response_format`** _(string)_
  The format of the response. - `unified` returns the response with unified mappings applied. - `raw` returns the unprocessed, raw response from the remote API. - `normalized` applies the unified mappings and returns the data in a normalized format. - `stream` returns the response as a stream, which is ideal for transmitting large datasets, files, or binary data. Using streaming mode helps to efficiently handle large payloads or real-time data flows without requiring the entire data to be buffered in memory. - `debug` returns the final unified result alongside raw remote fetch information. The response is an envelope containing `result` (identical to unified mode output) and `debug` (with `requestUrl`, `requestOptions`, `data`, `responseHeaders`, and for list operations: `nextCursor`, `isLooping`, `isEmptyResult`, `resultCount`). When the upstream body exceeds 1 MiB, `data` is replaced by `{ truto_truncated: true, truto_max_bytes, truto_excerpt }`. `debug` is `null` for static responses or when `truto_skip_api_call=true`. Defaults to `unified`.
  Allowed: `unified`, `raw`, `normalized`, `stream`, `debug`
- **`truto_key_by`** _(string)_
  By default the `result` attribute is an array of objects. This parameter allows you to specify a field in each `result` objects to use as key, which transforms the `result` array into an object with the array items keyed by the field. This is useful for when you want to use the result as a lookup table.
- **`truto_ignore_limit`** _(boolean)_
  Ignores the `limit` query parameter.
- **`truto_ignore_remote_data`** _(boolean)_
  Excludes the `remote_data` attribute from the response.
- **`truto_exclude_fields`** _(array<string>)_
  Array of fields to exclude from the response.
- **`remote_query`** _(object)_
  Query parameters to pass to the underlying API without any transformations. Refer [this guide](https://truto.one/docs/api-reference/overview/querying#remote-query-parameters) to see how to structure the query parameters.

## Response body

- **`result`** _(array<object>)_
  List of Policy constraints
  - **`id`** _(string, required)_
    Truto's stable unified identifier for this object. Opaque; use provider_ref to address the object in the provider's own console or API.
  - **`provider_ref`** _(string, required)_
    The provider's own unbroken identifier, passed through verbatim -- a full ARN, resource id or self-link. Never truncated, prefixed or normalised. This is the customer-facing key used to find the object in the console.
  - **`provider`** _(string, required)_
    Which cloud this object was read from.
    Allowed: `aws`, `azure`, `gcp`
  - **`account_ref`** _(string, required)_
    The account, subscription or project the object belongs to. An object with no account cannot be attributed to an environment, so this is always present for objects that live inside an account.
  - **`region`** _(string)_
    Where the object is. A compliance answer in its own right, not metadata. The literal string 'global' is emitted for genuinely global resources (for example IAM, or a GCP VPC network) rather than guessing a region. Never invented: where the provider does not return a location and none can be derived, the collector's queried region is used and that substitution is recorded in unreadable_fields.
  - **`native_type`** _(string, required)_
    The provider's own type string, unmodified -- for example 'AWS::S3::Bucket', 'aws_iam_role', 'Microsoft.Sql/servers'. Used for display and drill-down.
  - **`tags`** _(object)_
    Key-value pairs exactly as the customer set them: no case folding, no key or value normalisation, no merging of separate provider concepts. Present on every object because tags are the primary input for environment classification. An empty object means the object carries no tags; tags that could not be read are recorded in unreadable_fields instead.
  - **`collected_at`** _(string, required)_
    When Truto actually read this object from the provider, in UTC ISO 8601 with the offset present. Not when the request was made and not a provider timestamp. Drives consumer staleness rules.
  - **`unreadable_fields`** _(array<object>)_
    Per-object list of the fields that could not be read, and why -- the brief section 8.4 answer, chosen over per-field sentinel values. Each entry is an object with 'field' (the property name on this resource), 'reason' (a reason code) and an optional human-readable 'detail'. Reason codes: not_supported_by_provider, not_configured, permission_denied, not_collected, collection_error, partially_collected. An empty array means every property on this object was read successfully. A property absent from this array and null in the payload means the provider genuinely returned no value, which is different from 'we could not look'.
  - **`remote_data`** _(object)_
    Raw data returned from the remote API call.
  - **`policy_ref`** _(string, required)_
    The provider's own identifier for the policy.
  - **`policy_name`** _(string, required)_
    The policy name as the provider names it.
  - **`display_name`** _(string)_
    A friendlier name, where the provider has one separate from policy_name. AWS service control policies have no such field and this falls back to the name.
  - **`policy_type`** _(string)_
    Which preventative policy mechanism this is, as the provider names it.
  - **`effect`** _(string, required)_
    Whether the policy BLOCKS the action or merely reports it. The field that matters most here: a rule that blocks is far stronger evidence than one that audits. Note that AWS service control policies have no audit or report-only mode at all -- only allow and deny, both effective immediately -- so 'audit' is never emitted for them, and effect is per statement rather than per policy, since a single policy commonly contains both.
    Allowed: `deny`, `allow`, `audit`, `modify`, `mixed`, `unknown`
  - **`supports_audit_mode`** _(boolean)_
    Whether this policy mechanism can express a report-only mode at all, so that the absence of audit policies is not misread as the customer choosing not to use them.
  - **`scope_type`** _(string, required)_
    The level this row's scope node sits at.
    Allowed: `organisation`, `grouping`, `account`, `resource`, `unknown`
  - **`scope_ref`** _(string, required)_
    The node this row reports the policy as applying to.
  - **`inherited_from_ref`** _(string)_
    The node the policy is actually attached to, when that differs from scope_ref. Inheritance must be computed on AWS: the attachment operation returns directly attached policies only, and the operation that would merge inheritance explicitly excludes service control policies.
  - **`is_inherited`** _(boolean)_
    Whether this row is an inherited application rather than a direct attachment.
  - **`parameters`** _(object)_
    Parameter values supplied where the policy is instantiated per assignment. AWS service control policies are not parameterised at all -- attaching one to forty nodes attaches the identical document forty times -- so this is null with not_supported_by_provider there.
  - **`allowed_values`** _(array<string>)_
    Values the policy permits, where the provider exposes them as structured data. Nothing exposes these for AWS service control policies; they could only be heuristically parsed out of arbitrary customer-authored condition blocks, and are left null rather than guessed.
  - **`denied_values`** _(array<string>)_
    Values the policy forbids, on the same terms as allowed_values.
  - **`enforced`** _(boolean, required)_
    Whether the policy is actually in force. No enabled toggle exists at policy or attachment level on AWS; it is derived from the policy type being enabled on the organisation root AND the policy having at least one target, and is flagged as derived.
  - **`has_local_override`** _(boolean)_
    Whether a sub-account has opted out of an organisation-wide rule -- itself a finding. No such concept exists for AWS service control policies: they intersect and never override, a child can never relax a parent, and there is no exemption mechanism, so this is always false there and that is a fact rather than a gap.
  - **`policy_document`** _(string)_
    The raw policy document. Carried in the provider's native encoding: AWS service control policy content is plain JSON, the opposite of IAM policy documents, and applying the IAM decode rule to it mangles the document.
- **`next_cursor`** _(string)_
  The cursor to use for the next page of results. Pass this value as `next_cursor` in the query parameter in the next request to get the next page of results.
- **`debug`** _(object)_
  Present only when `truto_response_format=debug`. Contains raw fetch details: `requestUrl`, `requestOptions`, `data`, `responseHeaders`, `nextCursor`, `isLooping`, `isEmptyResult`, `resultCount`. `data` is the parsed upstream body; when its JSON form exceeds 1 MiB it is replaced by `{ truto_truncated: true, truto_max_bytes, truto_excerpt }`, where `truto_excerpt` is the leading bytes of that body. The same applies to a string `requestOptions.body`. `null` for static responses or when `truto_skip_api_call=true`.
  - **`requestUrl`** _(string)_
  - **`requestOptions`** _(object)_
  - **`data`** _(unknown)_
  - **`responseHeaders`** _(object)_
  - **`nextCursor`** _(string)_
  - **`isLooping`** _(boolean)_
  - **`isEmptyResult`** _(boolean)_
  - **`resultCount`** _(number)_
