# Alerting API
|
||
|
||
> **Note:** This topic is relevant for the [legacy dashboard alerts]({{< relref "../alerting/old-alerting/_index.md" >}}) only.
|
||
|
||
You can find Grafana 8 alerts API specification details [here](https://editor.swagger.io/?url=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/grafana/grafana/main/pkg/services/ngalert/api/tooling/post.json). Also, refer to [Grafana 8 alerts documentation]({{< relref "../alerting/unified-alerting/_index.md" >}}) for details on how to create and manage new alerts.
|
||
|
||
You can use the Alerting API to get information about legacy dashboard alerts and their states but this API cannot be used to modify the alert.
|
||
To create new alerts or modify them you need to update the dashboard JSON that contains the alerts.
|
||
|
||
## Get alerts
|
||
|
||
`GET /api/alerts/`
|
||
|
||
**Example Request**:
|
||
|
||
```http
|
||
GET /api/alerts HTTP/1.1
|
||
Accept: application/json
|
||
Content-Type: application/json
|
||
Authorization: Bearer eyJrIjoiT0tTcG1pUlY2RnVKZTFVaDFsNFZXdE9ZWmNrMkZYbk
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Querystring Parameters:
|
||
|
||
These parameters are used as querystring parameters. For example:
|
||
|
||
`/api/alerts?dashboardId=1`
|
||
|
||
- **dashboardId** – Limit response to alerts in specified dashboard(s). You can specify multiple dashboards, e.g. dashboardId=23&dashboardId=35.
|
||
- **panelId** – Limit response to alert for a specified panel on a dashboard.
|
||
- **query** - Limit response to alerts having a name like this value.
|
||
- **state** - Return alerts with one or more of the following alert states: `ALL`,`no_data`, `paused`, `alerting`, `ok`, `pending`. To specify multiple states use the following format: `?state=paused&state=alerting`
|
||
- **limit** - Limit response to _X_ number of alerts.
|
||
- **folderId** – Limit response to alerts of dashboards in specified folder(s). You can specify multiple folders, e.g. folderId=23&folderId=35.
|
||
- **dashboardQuery** - Limit response to alerts having a dashboard name like this value.
|
||
- **dashboardTag** - Limit response to alerts of dashboards with specified tags. To do an "AND" filtering with multiple tags, specify the tags parameter multiple times e.g. dashboardTag=tag1&dashboardTag=tag2.
|
||
|
||
**Example Response**:
|
||
|
||
```http
|
||
HTTP/1.1 200
|
||
Content-Type: application/json
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Get alert by id
|
||
|
||
`GET /api/alerts/:id`
|
||
|
||
**Example Request**:
|
||
|
||
```http
|
||
GET /api/alerts/1 HTTP/1.1
|
||
Accept: application/json
|
||
Content-Type: application/json
|
||
Authorization: Bearer eyJrIjoiT0tTcG1pUlY2RnVKZTFVaDFsNFZXdE9ZWmNrMkZYbk
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Example Response**:
|
||
|
||
```http
|
||
HTTP/1.1 200
|
||
Content-Type: application/json
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Important Note**:
|
||
"evalMatches" data is cached in the db when and only when the state of the alert changes
|
||
(e.g. transitioning from "ok" to "alerting" state).
|
||
|
||
If data from one server triggers the alert first and, before that server is seen leaving alerting state,
|
||
a second server also enters a state that would trigger the alert, the second server will not be visible in "evalMatches" data.
|
||
|
||
## Pause alert by id
|
||
|
||
`POST /api/alerts/:id/pause`
|
||
|
||
**Example Request**:
|
||
|
||
```http
|
||
POST /api/alerts/1/pause HTTP/1.1
|
||
Accept: application/json
|
||
Content-Type: application/json
|
||
Authorization: Bearer eyJrIjoiT0tTcG1pUlY2RnVKZTFVaDFsNFZXdE9ZWmNrMkZYbk
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The :id query parameter is the id of the alert to be paused or unpaused.
|
||
|
||
JSON Body Schema:
|
||
|
||
- **paused** – Can be `true` or `false`. True to pause an alert. False to unpause an alert.
|
||
|
||
**Example Response**:
|
||
|
||
```http
|
||
HTTP/1.1 200
|
||
Content-Type: application/json
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Pause all alerts
|
||
|
||
See [Admin API]({{< relref "admin.md#pause-all-alerts" >}}).
