Response Type:

Name Type Description
bold = required
value notification[] List of the health messages.
value[].id string The notification id. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.

value[].time date_time The time the notification was raised/found. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.

Optional. Only if the time information is available.

value[].message localizable_message The notification message. This attribute was added in vSphere API 6.7.

value[].message.id string Unique identifier of the localizable string or message template.

This identifier is typically used to retrieve a locale-specific string or message template from a message catalog.

value[].message.default_message string The value of this localizable string or message template in the en_US (English) locale. If vapi.std.localizable_message.id refers to a message template, the default message will contain the substituted arguments. This value can be used by clients that do not need to display strings and messages in the native language of the user. It could also be used as a fallback if a client is unable to access the appropriate message catalog.

value[].message.args string[] Positional arguments to be substituted into the message template. This list will be empty if the message uses named arguments or has no arguments.
