## Response `200`

Successful response

- MeshTCPRouteItem — NOTICE: This policy defines its own `GetDefault` method so that it can have the given structure for deserialization but still use the generic policy merging machinery. // MeshTCPRoute configures routing for TCP traffic between services in the mesh. It enables traffic splitting and weighted load balancing across different backend endpoints, useful for canary deployments, blue-green deployments, and gradual traffic migration for TCP-based services.
  - `type` 'MeshTCPRoute', required — the type of the resource
  - `mesh` string — Mesh is the name of the Kuma mesh this resource belongs to. It may be omitted for cluster-scoped resources.
  - `kri` string — A unique identifier for this resource instance used by internal tooling and integrations. Typically derived from resource attributes and may be used for cross-references or indexing
  - `name` string, required — Name of the Kuma resource
  - `labels` object — The labels to help identity resources
  - `spec` object, required — Spec is the specification of the Kuma MeshTCPRoute resource.
    - `targetRef` object — TargetRef is a reference to the resource the policy takes an effect on. The resource could be either a real store object or virtual resource defined in-place.
      - `kind` 'Mesh' | 'MeshSubset' | 'MeshGateway' | 'MeshService' | 'MeshExternalService' | 'MeshMultiZoneService' | 'MeshServiceSubset' | 'MeshHTTPRoute' | 'Dataplane', required — Kind of the referenced resource
      - `labels` object — Labels are used to select group of MeshServices that match labels. Either Labels or Name and Namespace can be used.
      - `mesh` string — Mesh is reserved for future use to identify cross mesh resources.
      - `name` string — Name of the referenced resource. Can only be used with kinds: `MeshService`, `MeshServiceSubset` and `MeshGatewayRoute`
      - `namespace` string — Namespace specifies the namespace of target resource. If empty only resources in policy namespace will be targeted.
      - `proxyTypes` string[] — ProxyTypes specifies the data plane types that are subject to the policy. When not specified, all data plane types are targeted by the policy.
      - `sectionName` string — SectionName is used to target specific section of resource. For example, you can target port from MeshService.ports[] by its name. Only traffic to this port will be affected.
      - `tags` object — Tags used to select a subset of proxies by tags. Can only be used with kinds `MeshSubset` and `MeshServiceSubset`
    - `to` object[] — To list makes a match between the consumed services and corresponding configurations
      - `rules` object[], required — Rules contains the routing rules applies to a combination of top-level targetRef and the targetRef in this entry.
        - `default` object, required — Default holds routing rules that can be merged with rules from other policies.
          - `backendRefs` object[]
            - `kind` 'Mesh' | 'MeshSubset' | 'MeshGateway' | 'MeshService' | 'MeshExternalService' | 'MeshMultiZoneService' | 'MeshServiceSubset' | 'MeshHTTPRoute' | 'Dataplane', required — Kind of the referenced resource
            - `labels` object — Labels are used to select group of MeshServices that match labels. Either Labels or Name and Namespace can be used.
            - `mesh` string — Mesh is reserved for future use to identify cross mesh resources.
            - `name` string — Name of the referenced resource. Can only be used with kinds: `MeshService`, `MeshServiceSubset` and `MeshGatewayRoute`
            - `namespace` string — Namespace specifies the namespace of target resource. If empty only resources in policy namespace will be targeted.
            - `port` integer — Port is only supported when this ref refers to a real MeshService object
            - `proxyTypes` string[] — ProxyTypes specifies the data plane types that are subject to the policy. When not specified, all data plane types are targeted by the policy.
            - `sectionName` string — SectionName is used to target specific section of resource. For example, you can target port from MeshService.ports[] by its name. Only traffic to this port will be affected.
            - `tags` object — Tags used to select a subset of proxies by tags. Can only be used with kinds `MeshSubset` and `MeshServiceSubset`
            - `weight` integer
      - `targetRef` object, required — TargetRef is a reference to the resource that represents a group of destinations.
        - `kind` 'Mesh' | 'MeshSubset' | 'MeshGateway' | 'MeshService' | 'MeshExternalService' | 'MeshMultiZoneService' | 'MeshServiceSubset' | 'MeshHTTPRoute' | 'Dataplane', required — Kind of the referenced resource
        - `labels` object — Labels are used to select group of MeshServices that match labels. Either Labels or Name and Namespace can be used.
        - `mesh` string — Mesh is reserved for future use to identify cross mesh resources.

        - `sectionName` string — SectionName is used to target specific section of resource. For example, you can target port from MeshService.ports[] by its name. Only traffic to this port will be affected.
        - `tags` object — Tags used to select a subset of proxies by tags. Can only be used with kinds `MeshSubset` and `MeshServiceSubset`
  - `creationTime` string, date-time — Time at which the resource was created
  - `modificationTime` string, date-time — Time at which the resource was updated
