```

Get anomaly detection jobs.
**Behaviour flags:**
`--dry-run` — validate all inputs and exit without performing any action

## Options

<definitions>
  <definition term="--allow-no-match">
    Specifies what to do when the request: * Contains wildcard expressions and there are no jobs that match.
    - Contains the `_all` string or no identifiers and there are no matches.
    - Contains wildcard expressions and there are only partial matches. If `true`, the API returns an empty jobs array when there are no matches and the subset of results when there
      are partial matches. If `false`, the API returns a 404 status code when there are no matches or only partial
      matches.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--h enum">
    Comma-separated list of column names to display.
    **Values:** assignment_explanation, buckets.count, buckets.time.exp_avg, buckets.time.exp_avg_hour, buckets.time.max, buckets.time.min, buckets.time.total, data.buckets, data.earliest_record, data.empty_buckets, data.input_bytes, data.input_fields, data.input_records, data.invalid_dates, data.last, data.last_empty_bucket, data.last_sparse_bucket, data.latest_record, data.missing_fields, data.out_of_order_timestamps, data.processed_fields, data.processed_records, data.sparse_buckets, forecasts.memory.avg, forecasts.memory.max, forecasts.memory.min, forecasts.memory.total, forecasts.records.avg, forecasts.records.max, forecasts.records.min, forecasts.records.total, forecasts.time.avg, forecasts.time.max, forecasts.time.min, forecasts.time.total, forecasts.total, id, model.bucket_allocation_failures, model.by_fields, model.bytes, model.bytes_exceeded, model.categorization_status, model.categorized_doc_count, model.dead_category_count, model.failed_category_count, model.frequent_category_count, model.log_time, model.memory_limit, model.memory_status, model.over_fields, model.partition_fields, model.rare_category_count, model.timestamp, model.total_category_count, node.address, node.ephemeral_id, node.id, node.name, opened_time, state
    **Repeatable:** pass `--h` multiple times to supply more than one value
  </definition>
  <definition term="--s enum">
    Comma-separated list of column names or column aliases used to sort the response.
    **Values:** assignment_explanation, buckets.count, buckets.time.exp_avg, buckets.time.exp_avg_hour, buckets.time.max, buckets.time.min, buckets.time.total, data.buckets, data.earliest_record, data.empty_buckets, data.input_bytes, data.input_fields, data.input_records, data.invalid_dates, data.last, data.last_empty_bucket, data.last_sparse_bucket, data.latest_record, data.missing_fields, data.out_of_order_timestamps, data.processed_fields, data.processed_records, data.sparse_buckets, forecasts.memory.avg, forecasts.memory.max, forecasts.memory.min, forecasts.memory.total, forecasts.records.avg, forecasts.records.max, forecasts.records.min, forecasts.records.total, forecasts.time.avg, forecasts.time.max, forecasts.time.min, forecasts.time.total, forecasts.total, id, model.bucket_allocation_failures, model.by_fields, model.bytes, model.bytes_exceeded, model.categorization_status, model.categorized_doc_count, model.dead_category_count, model.failed_category_count, model.frequent_category_count, model.log_time, model.memory_limit, model.memory_status, model.over_fields, model.partition_fields, model.rare_category_count, model.timestamp, model.total_category_count, node.address, node.ephemeral_id, node.id, node.name, opened_time, state
    **Repeatable:** pass `--s` multiple times to supply more than one value
  </definition>
  <definition term="--job-id string">
    Identifier for the anomaly detection job.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--format string">
    Specifies the format to return the columnar data in, can be set to
    `text`, `json`, `cbor`, `yaml`, or `smile`.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--v">
    When set to `true` will enable verbose output.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--bytes enum">
    Sets the units for columns that contain a byte-size value.
    Note that byte-size value units work in terms of powers of 1024. For instance `1kb` means 1024 bytes, not 1000 bytes.
    If omitted, byte-size values are rendered with a suffix such as `kb`, `mb`, or `gb`, chosen such that the numeric value of the column is as small as possible whilst still being at least `1.0`.
    If given, byte-size values are rendered as an integer with no suffix, representing the value of the column in the chosen unit.
    Values that are not an exact multiple of the chosen unit are rounded down.
    **Values:** b, kb, mb, gb, tb, pb
  </definition>
  <definition term="--time enum">
    Sets the units for columns that contain a time duration.
    If omitted, time duration values are rendered with a suffix such as `ms`, `s`, `m` or `h`, chosen such that the numeric value of the column is as small as possible whilst still being at least `1.0`.
    If given, time duration values are rendered as an integer with no suffix.
    Values that are not an exact multiple of the chosen unit are rounded down.
    **Values:** nanos, micros, ms, s, m, h, d
  </definition>
  <definition term="--error-trace">
    When set to `true` Elasticsearch will include the full stack trace of errors
    when they occur.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--filter-path string">
    Comma-separated list of filters in dot notation which reduce the response
    returned by Elasticsearch.
    **Repeatable:** pass `--filter-path` multiple times to supply more than one value
  </definition>
  <definition term="--human">
    When set to `true` will return statistics in a format suitable for humans.
    For example `"exists_time": "1h"` for humans and
    `"exists_time_in_millis": 3600000` for computers. When disabled the human
    readable values will be omitted. This makes sense for responses being consumed
    only by machines.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--pretty">
    If set to `true` the returned JSON will be "pretty-formatted". Only use
    this option for debugging only.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--input-file string">
    path to a JSON file to use as command input
  </definition>
  <definition term="--dry-run">
    validate all inputs and exit without performing any action (preview changes without applying them)
  </definition>
</definitions>
