The anomalies.list method provides a list of all anomalies available for your cloud platforms.

You can filter the list by using one or more of the following parameters:

minCreationTimestring
Min value for a time of an anomaly, in milliseconds since the POSIX epoch. If set, only anomalies happened after or at this timestamp are returned.

Max value for a time of an anomaly time, in milliseconds since the POSIX epoch. If set, only anomalies happened before or at this timestamp are returned.
filterstring
An expression for filtering the results of the request. The syntax is key:[<value>]. For example, the platforms:google-cloud will filter the list to only Google Cloud anomalies.

Supported filter keys:

- platform - google-cloud, amazon-web-services, or platform:microsoft-azure Learn more about how to use filter *.list requests
