This endpoint provides the relevant ML features (based on feature importance testing) that are shown to impact the demand for the Beam Analysis. These are the features you should take into your forecasting model to improve your model accuracy.

These values represent each group of features' statistical significance when it comes to impacting observable incremental/decremental changes in demand.

The easiest way to get these ML features from our Features API to be used in your models is by using the Beam analysis_id in your Features API request.
