API reference
API Reference Overview
Unlike a lot of other observability providers we think that our users should be able to access their data programmatically.
We will always make the same APIs we use to build our frontend available to you. This means you can build your own tools or use third party tools on top of all the data we collect.
That being said, our APIs are currently in beta and are subject to change. We will do our best to keep them stable but we may need to make breaking changes as we learn more about how our users are using them.
We expect to have a stable release of our APIs around September 2024.
API Overview
The Metoro API is RESTful http API that allows you to interact with the Metoro backend. The API is organized around the following resources:
- Logs
- Metrics
- Traces
- Kubernetes Resources
- Dashboards
Each of these resources has a set of endpoints that allow you to interact with them. For example, the logs resource has endpoints for querying logs, computing metrics on log tags etc.
Authentication & Authorization
The Metoro API uses bearer tokens to authenticate requests. You can create an API key in the settings page of the Metoro frontend. The API key should be included in the Authorization header of the request.
Example header:
Authorization: Bearer <API_KEY>
