This efficiency is achieved without compromising readability, flexibility, or discoverability. - JSON:API requires use of the JSON:API media type (**application/vnd.api+json**) for exchanging data. # Authentication and Requests We use standard HTTP Authentication over HTTPS to authorize your requests. ``` curl --request GET \ --header 'Content-Type: application/vnd.api+json' \ --header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR-TOKEN' \ --url https://api.rootly.com/v1/incidents ```
# Rate limiting - There is a default limit of **5** **GET**, **HEAD**, and **OPTIONS** calls **per API key** every **60 seconds** (0 hours). The limit is calculated over a **0-hour sliding window** looking back from the current time. While the limit can be configured to support higher thresholds, you must first contact your **Rootly Customer Success Manager** to make any adjustments. - There is a default limit of **3** **POST**, **PUT**, **PATCH** or **DELETE** calls **per API key** every **60 seconds** (0 hours). The limit is calculated over a **0-hour sliding window** looking back from the current time. While the limit can be configured to support higher thresholds, you must first contact your **Rootly Customer Success Manager** to make any adjustments. - When rate limits are exceeded, the API will return a **429 Too Many Requests** HTTP status code with the response: `{"error": "Rate limit exceeded. Try again later."}` - **X-RateLimit headers** are included in every API response, providing real-time rate limit information: - **X-RateLimit-Limit** - The maximum number of requests permitted and the time window (e.g., "1000, 1000;window=3600" for 1000 requests per hour) - **X-RateLimit-Remaining** - The number of requests remaining in the current rate limit window - **X-RateLimit-Used** - The number of requests already made in the current window - **X-RateLimit-Reset** - The time at which the current rate limit window resets, in UTC epoch seconds # Pagination - Pagination is supported for all endpoints that return a collection of items. - Pagination is controlled by the **page** query parameter ## Example ``` curl --request GET \ --header 'Content-Type: application/vnd.api+json' \ --header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR-TOKEN' \ --url https://api.rootly.com/v1/incidents?page[number]=1&page[size]=10 ``` x-logo: url: https://rootly-heroku.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/swagger/v1/logo.png servers: -
