RPC-shaped traversal. Pick the edge by (link_type, direction) or by role — the registry resolves a role name (e.g. managed_by, direct_reports) to the underlying link side. link_type wins when both are present.

The catalogue master of one dish or drink, shared by every outlet that sells it: names, its item class (menu_item_in_class → VAT, revenue category, course), the reporting group menu engineering reads, and its allergens. What gets priced and ordered is a menu_item_variant (variant_of_menu_item); where it appears is menu_item_in_section; an optional recipe binding (menu_item_uses_recipe) carries COGS. Distinct from service_item, the venue-level catalogue row.

Parameters

Section titled “Parameters”

Path Parameters

Section titled “Path Parameters”
id
required
string format: uuid

Object id (UUID v7, server-generated at create time).

Request Bodyrequired

Section titled “Request Bodyrequired”
Media typeapplication/json

Body for POST .../traverse. At least one of link_type or role MUST be supplied — the server returns 422 missing_traversal_target when both are absent. link_type wins when both are set.

object
as_of

RFC3339 temporal window: return neighbours whose edge was in effect at this instant ([effective_from, effective_to)) instead of now.

string format: date-time
branch

Traverse through an open branch’s overlay view instead of the canonical (main) plane. Does not compose with as_of (422).

string format: uuid
cursor
string
direction

Edge direction. Optional when the binding is asymmetric.

Allowed values: out in
limit
integer
>= 1 <= 500
link_type

API name of the link type to traverse. Narrowed to link types that bind the source. Wins over role.

Allowed values: hospitality.link.check_line_for_menu_item hospitality.link.menu_item_in_class hospitality.link.menu_item_in_section hospitality.link.menu_item_prepared_at_station hospitality.link.menu_item_uses_modifier_group hospitality.link.menu_item_uses_recipe hospitality.link.variant_of_menu_item
role

Link-side role name (e.g. managed_by, direct_reports). Mutually substitutable with link_type — the registry resolves the role to its underlying link and direction.

string
