/api/v1/cpc_class/
In data version 20261027.2 this endpoint answers 501 ERR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED: cpc_classes: /api/v1/cpc_class/ (each patent's CPC classes come in its cpc_current and cpc_at_issue groups).
Upstream view CPCClassList (index cpc_classes, response key cpc_classes). Any field may be null where the bulk data has no value. Default fields (f): cpc_class_id, cpc_class_title. Default sort (s): [{"cpc_class_id": "asc"}]. A lookup endpoint: q may be omitted to list every record. When the build in service does not carry this endpoint's data set it answers 501 with X-Status-Reason-Code ERR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED and X-Status-Reason naming the data set.

Fields
Kind is how q treats the field (grammar, Field kinds). Sortable fields go in s. Nested fields are named with a dot in q and f; naming the group returns its upstream fields, and a field whose note says it is present only when f names it comes back only then. The rows of a group come in the order of their source (grammar, the response and paging).
| Field | Type | Kind | Sortable | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
cpc_class_id | string | keyword | yes | |
cpc_class_title | string | text | ||
cpc_class_first_seen_date | string | date | yes | |
cpc_class_last_seen_date | string | date | yes | |
cpc_class_years_active | integer | number | yes | |
cpc_class_num_patents | integer | number | yes | |
cpc_class_num_assignees | integer | number | yes | |
cpc_class_num_inventors | integer | number | yes |
