Table 3 Response body parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
id	String	Policy ID
name	String	Array of details of policies
action	PolicyAction object	PolicyAction
options	PolicyOption object	PolicyOption
level	Integer	Protection level 1: WAF detects wget, cURL, and more but does not detect XSS and command injection attacks in the header, so you may miss more vulnerabilities that actually exist. If you find out that configured protection rules are affecting your services, adjust the protection level to 1. 2: WAF detects remote file inclusion, third-party software vulnerabilities, web shell, and cp and ftp commands. This is the default value. 3: If you need a stricter protection level, set this parameter to 3. This may increase the false positive rate but decrease the false negative rate, such as nc, nmap, and kill.
full_detection	Boolean	Detection mode in the precise protection rule true: full detection. WAF blocks all requests that hit the configured precise protection rule when it finishes all threat detections. false: instant detection. WAF immediately ends threat detection and blocks the request that hits the configured precise protection rule.
bind_host	Array of BindHost objects	Basic information about the protected domain.
timestamp	Integer	Time a policy is created
extend	Map<String,String>	Extended field
