Dear fellow RIPE Atlases, I am looking for the full definition of all optional field of the RIPE Atlas REST API for creating measurements. Especially the one for creating a DNS measurement. I only find the one defining the required attributes for a DNS measurement. But is there also a list constituting the optional fields?

Best regards, Robert

Hi Robert, Does this help: https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/apis/rest-api-reference/#measurements Under the POST method it says: Full descriptions of available measurement options are available in the reference for the GET /api/v2/measurements/ endpoint. so I guess the fields you find in the GET method’s “Response” section are probably also what you can use when creating measurements. And anything that mentions a default value is probably an optionl field. I am wildly guessing, though, as I have never used the API to create measurements. Cheers -Andi
