### Expanding the application response
LaunchDarkly supports expanding the "Get application" response to include additional fields.
To expand the response, append the `expand` query parameter and include the following:
* `flags` includes details on the flags that have been evaluated by the application
For example, use `?expand=flags` to include the `flags` field in the response. By default, this field is **not** included in the response.
