## Remarks

Used by M-Files components that work with Ground Link; applications rarely need it. Visibility
and `online_states` work as in [GetVaults](https://developer.m-files.com/APIs/gRPC-API/Reference/MFiles.IRPCVaults/GetVaults/index.md). The response is
empty on a server without Ground Link proxies.
