      description: 'This API endpoint is used to list the details of historical snapshots.

        Snapshots of organization data are taken periodically, and each historical snapshot record contains high-level overview metrics about the data that was collected.

        Other [Historical Data Endpoints](/reference/historical-data-endpoints) can be used to fetch the raw data associated with each snapshot.


        Historical snapshots contain details and raw data for the following resources:


        - Repositories

        - Alerts

        - Dependencies

        - Artifacts

        - Users

        - Settings


        Daily snapshot data is bucketed to the nearest day which is described in more detail at: [Historical Data Endpoints](/reference/historical-data-endpoints)


        This endpoint consumes 10 units of your quota.


        This endpoint requires the following org token scopes:
