The following table describes the elements in the response body:


Name	The link ID for the database copy. This is the same as the link ID in sys.dm_database_copies. It is a GUID which is used in the resource paths for the Get Database Copy, Update Database Copy, and Stop Database Copy requests.
Type	The server-side type of the database copy.
State	Describes the state of the resource. The value is always Normal for database copies.
SelfLink	The URI to the database copy.
ParentLink	Link to the parent resource.
SourceServerName	The server that is the source for the copy.
SourceDatabaseName	The database that is the source for the copy.
DestinationServerName	The server that is the destination for the copy.
DestinationDatabaseName	The database that is the destination for the copy.
IsContinuous	Specifies that the copy is a continuous copy.
IsOfflineSecondary	When True, specifies that the copy should be a passive continuous copy.
IsTerminationAllowed	When True, specifies that the passive continuous copy has permission to failover.
StartDate	The time the copy was started.
ModifyDate	The time the copy was last modified.
PercentComplete	Percent complete of the copy. For continuous copies, this only applies to the SEEDING (initial copy) phase.
ReplicationState	An integer representing the replication state of the database. Possible values are: - 0: PENDING (the copy hasn't started yet) - 1: SEEDING (the initial copy is in progress) - 2: CATCH_UP (for continuous copies, indicates that the initial copy is complete and asynchronous commits are being propagated to the target) - 4: TERMINATED Other values (like 3) are possible. The corresponding ReplicationStateDescription would be NULL). The meaning of these values will not change in future releases.
ReplicationStateDescription	The string description for the ReplicationState (see ReplicationState).
LocalDatabaseId	The ID of the local database (the same as the id in sys.databases). If the resource path for the request is to the source database, this will be the ID of the source databases. If the resource path for the request is to the target database, this will be the ID of the target database.
IsLocalDatabaseReplicationTarget	Whether or not the local database (see LocalDatabaseId) is the target for the copy.
IsInterlinkConnected	If the database copy is interlink connected.
