Use the get command to send a request for data about a specific instance of an object.

To view the available kinds of objects, use the following command:

observe --help objects

You need to specify the object type and the object ID, as in the following example, where 410420069 represents the dataset ID:

observe get workspace 41042069

The CLI provides the output in YAML format with the top section containing the object type and ID as well as sections for config and state.

The config section displays properties that you can change about an object, and the state section displays properties derived from other configurations or the system.

For example, when you save a Dataset, the name is a config property, but the modification date is a state property. The modification date derives from the system when you save it rather than provide it as direct input.
