# List rating actions

> The market's permanent rating-actions archive: every grade establishment, upgrade, downgrade, watch, suspension, and freeze, with its driver and timing.

Not clamped to the free window: the archive is the citable record, and a truncated one would hide history. Rows are never edited; a correction is a new row that names what it corrects.

    Rules-based benchmark data for prediction markets: Belief index levels,
    Belief Volatility series, and Market Grades (beta), read over HTTPS with an
    API key.


    The API is read-only. Every endpoint is a `GET`, every successful response
    is `{ data, meta }`, and every failure is a single `error` object with a
    stable `code`.

      Belief indices are rules-based benchmarks of how prediction markets price
      a defined set of events. Levels are exact decimal strings based at 100 on
      the index's inception date.
    name: Indices

      Belief Volatility measures how much prediction-market probabilities are
      expected to move over a stated horizon, in probability points. Always name
      the tenor when quoting a value.

  - description: >-
      Market Grades are letter grades for the quality of individual prediction
      markets (liquidity and integrity), not for the likelihood of any outcome.
      The family is in beta: the methodology and the validation roadmap are
      published, and results are reported as they arrive. Join on `venue` and
      `marketId` together, and reproduce `disclosureLines` wherever you show a
      letter.
