API Stability Long-Term

The installedPackage() GraphQL query provides details for a specific package installed on a specific view.

For more information on packages, see the Package Management documentation page.

Syntax

Below is the syntax for the installedPackage() query field:

graphql
installedPackage(
     packageId: VersionedPackageSpecifier!, 
     viewName: string!
   ): PackageInstallation

For the VersionedPackageSpecifier, you'll have to know the package name and it's version. Below is an example of how this might be given:

Raw
graphql
query {
  installedPackage(packageId: "humio/insights@0.0.14", viewName: "humio") 
  {
    installedBy{username,timestamp}, 
    updatedBy{username, timestamp},
    availableUpdate, source
  }
}

}
