return_format
string
default: csv
Allowed values: csv xml json

Sets the format of the success or failed answer on the synchronisation and status actions, and of the failure answer on every action. It does not change the success answer of the report and list actions, which is always their own XML document, or of the actions that answer with a page or a redirect. csv, xml and json are the only recognised values; anything else is answered in the csv format, the default. Not included in the check_hash.

The request was processed. The body says whether it succeeded; failures are also returned with HTTP 200.

string
Examples
success

The system is in maintenance mode. Retry later. The answer follows return_format: csv (also the answer to a return_format that is neither xml nor json) as text/plain, xml as text/xml, json as application/json.
