GET /instruments/traits-with-variance
List the distinict values possible for each trait for instruments matching the filters.

You must provide a brand or brand_id and a model or model_id to retrieve possible traits. Ideally, your application should fetch /traits-with-variance once the user has selected a brand, model and/or submodel. If you are using admin credentials to access the API you may omit these parameters but you should consider caching the results within your application.

By default, this API returns a set of possibilities for every trait. If you only need information about one trait, or a handful of traits, use the only parameter to improve performance (ex: ?only=fingerboard_inlay,truss_rod)

Params

Param name	Description
shallow optional	Pass true to include trait values, or false to include the IDs of values (faster). Default: false. Validations: Must be true or false.

brand optional	Filter based on a brand name Validations: Must be a String
brand_id optional	Filter based on a brand id Validations: Must be Integer.
model optional	Filter based on a model name Validations: Must be a String
model_id optional	Filter based on a model id Validations: Must be Integer.
submodel optional	Filter based on a submodel name Validations: Must be a String
submodel_id optional	Filter based on a submodel id Validations: Must be Integer.
year optional	Filter based on a year Validations: Must be Integer.
serial_number optional	Filter based on a year provided by a serial number Validations: Must be Integer.
approved optional	Validations: Must be true or false.
pending optional	Validations: Must be true or false.
