    - `code` string, required — Identifier of the user attribute or metric the rule tests.
    - `comparator` string, required — Comparison operator applied between the attribute and `values`.
    - `type` string, required — Value type of the attribute being compared.

  - `segment_percent` number, required — Percentage (0–100) of the targeted audience that receives this configuration. `100` targets the whole audience.
  - `segmentation_conditions` V4RemoteConfigurationSegmentationCondition[], required — Targeting rules that narrow the audience. Always present on read; `[]` when no conditions are set.
    - `code` string, required — Identifier of the user attribute or metric the rule tests.
    - `comparator` string, required — Comparison operator applied between the attribute and `values`.

  - `started_at` string, date-time, nullable — When the configuration was activated. `null` while in `draft`.
