Kubernetes namespace. Unlike the incident endpoints, this one does not search all namespaces: without
namespace it looks only in default.viewer. spec and status carry the same flattened object. Besides the fields shown, an item can carry reviewedAt, requiresHumanAction and requiredAction (set when the incident was contained and a human must restore the workload), and chaosInduced/chaosExperiment (when the Issue was correlated with a ChaosExperiment). Empty fields are omitted.
The REST projection does not include every PostMortem status field. Metric snapshots, blast radius, git correlation, SLI impact, trending, GitOps context, log analysis summary and cascade chain are only on the resource: kubectl get postmortem <name> -n <namespace> -o yaml.

Authorizations
API key sent in the X-API-Key header. Keys are read from the Secret chatcli-operator-secrets, key api-keys (fallback: ConfigMap chatcli-operator-config, key api-keys) in the operator namespace, as a YAML list of {key, role, name, description} (name is the identity recorded on approval decisions); the operator chart creates it only with apiKeys.create: true. Roles: viewer < operator < admin — any other role string is denied everywhere. Changes are picked up within about 30 seconds; deleting both the Secret and the ConfigMap revokes every key. With no keys configured every /api/ call returns 401, unless CHATCLI_OPERATOR_DEV_MODE=true, which grants admin without a key (development only).
Path Parameters
PostMortem name.
Example:
"pm-payment-service-oom-1710860400"
Query Parameters
Namespace of the object. Defaults to default — pass it for objects in any other namespace.
