# Indicators of an affiliation

> Catalogue of the indicators returned by the products endpoint of an affiliation with the plot parameter.

With the `plot` parameter, the [Affiliation products](https://help.impactu.colav.co/en/api-reference/affiliation/get-research-products.md) endpoint returns an indicator instead of the product list.

```text theme={null}
GET /affiliation/{affiliation_type}/{affiliation_id}/research/products?plot=<indicator>
```

Indicators accept the same filters as the product list.
