+  summary: "Get validator identities from state"
+  description: |
+    Returns filterable list of validators identities.
+
+    Identities will be returned for all indices or public keys that match known validators. If an index or public key does not
+    match any known validator, no identity will be returned but this will not cause an error. There are no guarantees for the
+    returned data in terms of ordering.
+
+     Depending on `Accept` header data can be returned either as JSON or as bytes serialized by SSZ.
