keyValue xs:string Required The primary key value for the record you want to read.

Default=false		 Set this to ‘true’ if you want to format the values based on your Application settings, Otherwise, raw values read from the database will be returned
returnRawValues xs:boolean Optional
Default=false		 This is an optional parameter, the default value is ‘false’. If you specify true, then the result data will include raw values for columns that have been formatted. The raw values are returned as an attribute in the corresponding column value called “raw”. The raw value will only be present if: -

- The value has been formatted and is now different to the raw value
- The column is not a TEXT or BLOB data type

returnOneToManyData xs:boolean Optional
Default=false		 Set this to ‘true’ if you want to return OneToMany related table records.

Default=false		 Set this to ‘true’ if you want to get access token to view activity stream without following it with appropriate visibility instead of default public visibility.
