Response is a list of objects

Field	Type
href optional	string
id	string
name	string
description	string
child optional	list of objects (same structure as parent)

This response provides the hierarchy of work context from the O*NET Content Model. Each child property lists more-detailed elements nested under a more general category. Ratings on occupations are available at the most detailed level; each href property links to the corresponding Occupations for work context service.

This response lists occupation-specific ratings and descriptive information for the requested work context. The example property provides the scale anchors used for scoring the context ratings.

Standardized context scores are listed for most occupation results. In some cases, scores are not available and the corresponding property will not be present.

Results are sorted by context; to change this, set the sort parameter to title or code. Results are divided into pages; the first 20 results are returned by default.
