The include parameter

Some objects contain references to other, related objects from RIPE Atlas. By default, these objects will only be included with their type and ID. The client program could then construct a new request to the RIPE Atlas APIs to get detailed information about this related object.

To reduce the number of requests a client program has to make, you can include the detailed information on the related object by using the include parameter.

If you toggle the include query parameter, you can see the differences in the way the probes are included in the response:

GET /api/v2/anchors/?include=probe
