Audits

List comments for a control within an audit

Retrieves a paginated list of comments on a control within an IRL audit, enabling auditors to view collaboration history on the control.

This endpoint always includes soft-deleted records (where deletionDate !== null). Clients should check the deletionDate field to identify and handle deleted records appropriately in their systems.

This endpoint supports delta synchronization via the changedSinceDate parameter, allowing efficient polling for changes without retrieving the entire dataset.

Returns 404 when the control is not part of the audit.

Pagination usage:

Make initial request with desired pageSize
Check results.pageInfo.hasNextPage to see if more data exists
If true, use results.pageInfo.endCursor as pageCursor in next request
Repeat until hasNextPage is false

Delta sync usage:

Store the timestamp of your last sync
Pass that timestamp as changedSinceDate
Only comments created, modified, or deleted since that timestamp are returned
Process updates, including soft-deletes (deletionDate !== null)
Update your last sync timestamp to the current time

Rate limit: 50 requests / minute.

Query Parameters

pageSize

integer<int32>

default:10

Maximum number of comments to return per page. Controls the maximum number of items returned in one response from the API.

Required range: 1 <= x <= 100

pageCursor

string

Pagination cursor from a previous response. Provide to fetch the next page of comments. A marker or pointer, telling the API where to start fetching items for the subsequent page in a paginated dataset. Note that the requested page will not include the item that corresponds to this cursor but will start from the one immediately after this cursor.

changedSinceDate

string<date-time>

Includes all comments that have changed since changedSinceDate. Considers creationDate, modificationDate, and deletionDate timestamps when determining changes.

List information requests linked to a control within an auditReturns a paginated list of active information requests linked to a specific control within an IRL audit. An information request is linked to a control either via its framework codes (`criteriaIds`) or via a direct association (`additionalControlIds`). Soft-deleted information requests are not included in the response. To synchronize deletions, use `GET /audits/{auditId}/information-requests`, which supports `changedSinceDate` and includes soft-deleted records. Returns 404 when the control is not part of the audit. Returns an empty page when the control is part of the audit but has no active IRLs linked to it. Pagination usage: 1. Make initial request with desired `pageSize` 2. Check `results.pageInfo.hasNextPage` to see if more data exists 3. If true, use `results.pageInfo.endCursor` as `pageCursor` in next request 4. Repeat until `hasNextPage` is false Rate limit: 50 requests / minute.
