# Get Automation Dataflow

`GET /api/v1/automations/{automation_id}/dataflow`

Per-node field availability + reference violations for the config editor.

VIEWER-gated: this returns column *names* for entities the automation already
references, at the same visibility as ``GET /{automation_id}`` (which returns the node
configs naming those entities). No rows are read.
