}Query workload metadata suggestions
One row per workload metadata key observed across the organization, with how often each was seen. Filter on key_type to ask about one family of keys — custom workload tags, dbt meta or dbt top-level configuration — and sort by suggestion_count to rank them.
Returns one row per combination of the requested dimensions, carrying the requested measures. Each row is keyed by dimension and measure name. row_count is the number of rows in items: results are not paginated, so an aggregation with more rows than limit is cut short at limit rather than continued under a page_token. Send X-Team-Id to evaluate the query as a team you belong to; rows are then limited to what that team’s roles reach.
Use this route to find which metadata keys your queries carry, before you configure custom workloads or dbt metadata as workload dimensions. suggestion_count is the number of queries in the last 14 days that carried the key. The window is fixed: the route has no date dimension and takes no date filter. key_type has three values: custom_workload (the keys in custom workload query tags), dbt_meta (the keys in the dbt meta config) and dbt_top_level (the other top-level keys in the dbt query comment). The source holds one row for each connection, key type and key. suggestion_count adds these rows together. platform and connection_type are lowercase: snowflake, bigquery or databricks. Databricks has no custom_workload keys.

Headers
Act as this team: rows are limited to what the team's roles reach instead of the caller's own. The caller must be a member of the team or hold the organization-wide permission the route requires.
The organization ID the request is scoped to.
Body
Rank workload metadata keys callers have seen across the organization.
Aggregates to compute over the matching rows.

Columns to group the aggregates by. Each is returned on every row.

An and/or tree of predicates over dimensions, applied before aggregation. Omit to match every row the caller can see.

Maximum rows to return. Omit for no limit. An aggregation that produces more rows than this is silently cut short at the limit.
x >= 1Return the SQL that produced the rows alongside them, for inspecting how a result was computed. Not every query endpoint publishes its SQL; where it does not, the field stays null.
Reshape the result so the named dimensions become columns rather than rows. Each remaining dimension yields one row, carrying a pivot_data object keyed by the pivoted dimension values. Every name in pivot.on must also appear in dimensions.

Show child attributes
Return the result as a tree rather than a flat list, grouping the named dimensions into one level per tree depth. One request fetches the top level; a follow-up naming rollup.parent_paths fetches the children of the nodes expanded so far, so a deep hierarchy is read a level at a time. Every name in rollup.dimensions must also appear in dimensions.
Show child attributes
Show child attributes
Aggregate the matching rows. Set false to return the underlying rows as they are, projecting the requested dimensions with no grouping — a listing rather than an aggregation. It is honored only for a request that asks for no measures and no measure_filters, since an aggregate has to group to be computable; limit, when set, bounds the rows returned either way.
Response
Successful Response
Opaque cursor for the next page; empty/absent on the last page.
Best-effort total for the filtered result set; may be null when expensive.
The SQL that produced these rows, returned only when the request asks for it. Database and schema names are left as placeholders. Null when the request did not ask for it, or when this endpoint does not publish its SQL.
