This endpoint requires the `synthetics_read` permission. OAuth apps require the `synthetics_read` authorization [scope](https://docs.datadoghq.com/api/latest/scopes.md#synthetics) to access this endpoint. ### Arguments #### Path Parameters | Name | Type | Description | | --------------------------- | ------ | ----------------------------- | | public_id [*required*] | string | The public ID of the subtest. | ### Response {% tab title="200" %} OK {% tab title="Model" %} Response containing the list of parent tests for an API multistep subtest. | Parent field | Field | Type | Description | | ------------ | ---------------------- | -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | | | data | [object] | List of parent tests that include this subtest. | | data | attributes | object | Attributes of a parent API multistep test. | | attributes | child_name | string | The name of the child subtest. | | attributes | child_public_id | string | The public ID of the child subtest. | | attributes | monitor_id | int64 | The associated monitor ID. | | attributes | name | string | Name of the parent test. | | attributes | overall_state | int64 | The overall state of the parent test. | | attributes | overall_state_modified | string | Timestamp of when the overall state was last modified. | | attributes | public_id | string | The public ID of the parent test. | | data | id | string | The public ID of the parent test. | | data | type | enum | Type of the parent test resource.
