# Spotlight Top Item

The SpotlightTopItem object represents references to the platform objects picked up by `SpotlightQuery`.

`SpotlightTopItem` is used to provide data to the frontend template. It includes both core properties and object-specific properties. Spotlight operates as a service that is object-agnostic, meaning it does not maintain the schema of domain objects. 

The `SpotlightTopItem` contract is a result of a downstreamed RQL query and is utilized as is in a JSON string. This indicates that the list of properties is object-specific and may change depending on the RQL query executed.

<table><thead><tr><th width="290">Field</th><th width="127">Type</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><code>id</code></td><td>string</td><td>The core unique identifier for each item.</td></tr><tr><td><code>href</code></td><td>string</td><td>A relative reference to object on API.</td></tr><tr><td><code>{object-specific-properties}</code></td><td> </td><td>List of object specific properties, as a result of downstreamed RQL query.</td></tr></tbody></table>

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.platform.softwareone.com/developer-resources/rest-api/spotlight-objects-api/spotlight-object/spotlight-topitem.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
