Core APIs and Concepts

Welcome to the Anodot API Reference Site.

This section describes the basic API concpets

As well as core resource APIs such as

API Reference

API Base URLs

The Anodot API endpoints can be used to:

You are more than encouraged to use the Anodot API Postman Collections.

Anodot Revenue API

Run in Postman

Anodot Cost API

Run in Postman

Authentication

Basic Authentication

Using the basic token in a REST call:

POST 'https://{{app-url}}/api/v1/metrics?token={{DC_Key}}&protocol=anodot20'

Basic authentication is used for:

Anodot basic authentication uses a Data Collection Key. Copy the Data Collection Key from the Token Management page and use it in your REST calls.

Access Tokens

Endpoint: /access-token :

Step 2 - Request example:

POST 'https://{{app-url}}/api/v2/access-token/?responseformat=JSON' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "refreshToken" : "{{access-key}}"
}
'

Step 2 response - contains the access-token Option 1 is in plain-text:

"{{bearer-token-string}}"

Option 2 is in JSON format:

{
    "token" : "{{bearer-token-string}}"
}

Step 3 - Using the token you get in subsequent calls:

curl -X GET \
https://{{app-url}}.anodot.com/api/v2/feedbacks \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H "Authorization: Bearer {{bearer-token}}"
-d '{"startTime" : 1578391000, "endTime": 1578392000}'

To use access token authentication, follow these 3 simple steps:

Step 1: Create an access-key in the Token Management page within Anodot.

Step 2: Use the access-key's token to request a bearer-token.
The retrieved bearer-token expiration is controlled via the 'User session timeout' configuration in the settings page, under the Authentication tab.

Step 3: Use the retrieved bearer-token in your subsequent API calls
Set the Authorization header of your calls with Bearer and the retrieved bearer-token.

Step 2 Request Arguments

Argument Description
refreshToken Copied from Anodot app, see step 1
responseformat [Optional] Can be set to JSON (case sensitive!) if you would like to get the response in a json format.

Response Codes:

Code Description
200 OK - The response includes a token
401 NOK - Token Mismatch

Get CustomerID

Each customer has a unique customerID which can be useful for some scenarios.

End Point prefix: /api/v2/customers/id

Request example:

curl --location --request GET 'https://app.anodot.com/api/v2/customers/id' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer {{Bearer-Token}}' \
--data-raw ''
'

Request Arguments

None.

The Response contains the customerID.

"6062047f0f6585000e1a7107"

Anomaly

The Anomaly Object

End Point /api/v2/anomalies

Anomalies are deviations from a normal pattern in one or more metrics that signal unexpected behavior. Anodot treats anomalies as distinct objects when have their own attributes, rather than a collection of anomalous data points.

The anomaly API can be used to get and anlalyze the list of anomalies in your account.

List anomalies

Request Example: Get all anomalies

curl -X GET 'https://app.anodot.com/api/v2/anomalies?startDate=1655769600&endDate=1655856000&resolution=short,medium,long,longlong,weekly&state=both'' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer {bearer-token} \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json'

Get all anomalies based on a search query. If no query is defined, the call will return all the anomalies in the account.
Used to fetch multiple group anomalies by their properties.
All Arguments are passed as query params, there is no body to the call.

Argument Description

resolution (string) Include anomalies of the listed timescales,
currently supported timescales are: {short (1 min), medium (5 min), long (1 hour), longlong (1 day), weekly}.
The list passed should be comma separated string list, i.e. 'short,medium'. If you do not send this parameter, the default is 'medium'.
durationUnit (string) Can be one of the following: {seconds, minutes, hours, days}.
durationValue (integer) Minimum anomaly duration. Units are based on durationUnits.
score (number) Minimum anomaly score in range (0,1) (inclusive).

user_id - filter anomalies that are bookmarked by the given user.
* - filter anomalies that are not bookmarked by the given user.
sort (string) Sort by {startDate, endDate, duration, score}.
order (string) Sort order {asc, desc}.
index (integer) Anomaly starting index (for paging the results).
size (integer) Number of anomalies to fetch staring from index given by parameter index (for paging the results).

Forecast

Endpoint: GET /api/v2/forecast/

Anodot Autonomous Forecast is an additional product on top of Anodot, enabling the customer to get continous forecast for specific metrics.
The forecast product is based on Tasks which are running in Anodot. The tasks are providing the projected values of metrics based on previous behaviour. You can consider tasks as a kind of stream which sends forecast metrics into your account, enabling you to build dashboards on top of them.

The data hierarchy is as follows: Forecast Tasks --> Each task has metrics --> Each metric has forecast values (or results). So a good way to traverse all the information would be:

Response Codes

HTTP Responses

Anodot APIs use HTTP status codes to indicate the success or failure of a request.

An error indicates that the service did not successfully handle your request. In addition to the status code, the response may contain a JSON object with an errors array containing more detailed error messages (see Error response format bellow).

If the service is able to handle your request, but some issues are present (e.g. one of the metric sent has an illegal timestamp but all the reset are ok), the HTTP status code will indicate success and the response body will contain the expected result with the addition of errors array containing detailed error messages.

HTTP Status Codes

Error Code Meaning
200 OK
400 Bad Request
401 Unauthorized
403 Forbidden

Integrations

Incoming and outgoing integrations

Post Metrics

End Point prefix is /api/v1/metrics or /api/v2/send-metrics

Send data samples to Anodot using Metric 2.0/3.0 protocols. Both the version 2.0 and 3.0 protocols work with a schema - this means that the data is structured into key-value pairs and enables Anodot to better 'understand' and interact the metrics sent to it. The main difference between 2.0 and 3.0 is that 3.0 enable sending a 'watermark' notification to Anodot, enabling a better detection and assignment of data points to a time frame.

Use Anodot's sample code for a quick start

You can use Anodot's sample Python script to send metrics in Metrics 2.0 or 3.0 protocols.
Refer to Anodot on GitHub for more details.

High Level Flow

  1. Creating a Schema
  2. Sending samples matching the schema
  3. Sending watermarks timestamp to direct Anodot to process data samples up to the timestamp

Use this API to send metrics to Anodot based on a schema you've defined (Protocol 3.0) Please note that the maximal number of entries is 10K per request.

Some guidelines for using the protocol:

Request Arguments

Field Description
schemaId Id recieved from the create schema call
timestamp Integer - The data sample's timestamp (Unix epoc time in seconds). This has to be at most one hour in the future.
dimensions an array of key-value pairs of the metric dimensions.
measurements an array of a measurements - decimal double precision number, without a thousands seperator.
tags (Optional) List of tags attached to the measure. Key value pairs. Notice that tags are metadata of the metric and do not affect its uniqueness.

  "schemaId": "111111-22222-3333-4444",
  "watermark": “143877000”
}
'

Use this API to send the watermark timestamp to Anodot (Only relevant for protocol 3.0). A watermark timestamp commits that no data samples with timestamps less than or equal to it will be sent.

Parameters

Field Description
schemaId Id recieved from the 'create schema' call
watermark (Integer) timestamp of the watermark (Unix epoch time in seconds)

FAQ (3.0)

Send Data Samples (2.0)

Use this API to send metrics to Anodot based on a schema you've defined (Protocol 2.0)

The “what=” property describes what is actually being measured, while the rest of the properties describe the various dimensions used to create the measure.

By adding the property name with equal sign (=) to each token, you can use the Anodot service to easily find, aggregate, manipulate and understand any metric.

The order of the property-value pairs in a 2.0 metric does not matter. All you need to do is simply be consistent with the property names, making sure that each metric has a unique name. Metrics are uniquely identified using their generated names; therefore, no two metrics should share all the same the property-value pairs.

Request Arguments

Request Example - Sending metrics (2.0)

curl --location --request POST 'https://app.anodot.com/api/v1/metrics?protocol=anodot20&token={{DC_Key}}' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '[
  {
    "properties": {
      "what": "NumberPurchases",
      "Geo": "US",
      "Device": "Mobile",
      "ProductCategory": "Shoes",
      "target_type": "counter"
    },
    "tags": {
      "ActiveCampaignID": [
        1234
      ],
      "AccountManagers": [
        "JohnDoe",
        "MaryJane"
      ]
    },
    "timestamp": 1438761780,
    "value": 58
  }
]'
Field Description
properties list of properties of the metrics in a key-pair value array. This array should always contain a 'what' property. See notes below on best practices using this.
tags (Optional) List of tags attached to the measure. Key value pairs. Notice that tags are metadata of the metric and do not affect its uniqueness.
timestamp Integer - The data sample's timestamp (Unix epoc time in seconds). This has to be at most one hour in the future.
value decimal double precision number, without a thousands seperator.

Some notes on the 'properties' array sent using the protocol:

Send Data Samples (1.0)

Use this API to send metrics to Anodot based on the 1.0 Metric protocol. You may use this protocol to create new metrics or submit data points for new or existing metrics. You can submit data points for multiple metrics in a single request.

Each token in a metric name represents a property describing what and where is being measured. In this convention, the position of each token reflects a property in the schema. Anodot indexes each token by its position, for example, Token1 is indexed with the property Pos1. When searching for metrics, the position property can be used to find the right set of metrics

Metric 1.0 will look like this: Token1.Token2.Token3...tokenN.value

Request Arguments

Request Example - Sending metrics (1.0)

curl --location --request POST 'https://app.anodot.com/api/v1/metrics&token={{DC_Key}}' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '[
  {
    "name": "anodot.MacOS.hello_world_count",
    "timestamp": 1520325400,
    "value": 100,
    "tags": {
      "target_type": "counter"
    }
  }
]'

In the request body you need to send an array of time series data points. The data points have the following parameters:

Field Description
name (Mandatory) The unique identifying name of the metric being tracked. See below notes on metric names.
timestamp Integer - The data sample's timestamp (Unix epoc time in seconds).
value decimal double precision number, without a thousands seperator.
tags (Optional) List of tags attached to the measure. Key value pairs. Notice that tags are metadata of the metric and do not affect its uniqueness.

Update Stream Schema

The process to update a schema is listed here.

  1. Perform a GET schema request by ID to get the relevant schema's configuration, including it's ID.
  2. Delete the schema.
  3. In a text editor - Update the schema's configuration according to your requirements.
  4. Perform a Create schema request, remember to include the original schema ID as part of the request.
    This will direct Anodot to create the schema using the same ID.

Anodot Webhook Channel

The Anodot Webhook channel is used by customers to create custom handling of Alert triggers. The trigger is sent to a webhook URL the customer specifies and then you can create your own handling of the payload you get from Anodot. Instructions on setting up the webhook from the Anodot application can be found - here

The Anodot Webhook format has four variants, based on the Alert type:

Below you can see the format for each alert and sample payloads.

Main Fields

Field Description
subject Alert subject - same as alert email. Taken from Alert title
severity Determined by the alert with the highest severity amongst the alerts included in the webhook. Possible values: info, low, medium, high, critical
description Description of the alert who’s title was used in the subject
investigationUrl Link to Anoboard within Anodot for investigation purposes
triageUrl Link to the triage screen for this specific alert trigger.
startTime Human-readable start time of 1st alert in the anomaly
startTimeEpoch startTime in Epoch
timescale Alert timescale values: 1min, 5min, 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week
type Alert type: Anomaly / Static / No Data
mergedAnomalies An array of all merged anomalies
alerts An array of all alerts included in this triggered instance
metrics An array of all metrics in each alert
direction Up/down or both. If both, then the upper/lower are relevant
delta For backward compatibility
name Metric name (including tags and user given names for composite)
id Metric id
state Specific metric state. Values: OPEN, CLOSED
season Values: "None" if no season, or season value (2w, 1w, 1d, 12h, 6h, 5h, 4h, 3h, 2h, 1h, 30m, 15m, 10m, 5m).
events If correlated in the alert - User events within the time of the alert metrics
buckets An array of the events grouped by dates
topEvents Top X events for the alert
alertid Specific alert id
AlertSettingsURl Link to specific alert configuration
description Specific alert description
severity Specific alert severity. Possible values: info, low, medium, high, critical
alertGroupId A unique identifier for the entire incident. This is useful if you would like to collate the different notifications of a specific incidents together - i.e. getting the 'open', 'update' and 'close' messages of the same incident together. They will all have the same alertGroupId.

Anomaly alerts are the main type of Anodot alerts. Notice that Anomaly alerts have two versions for the webhook format - standard and extended. The extended version is open to select customers upon request. Please send a mail to support@anodot.com if you would like to start using the extended version. On the right you can see the template and a sample of the standard Anomaly alert trigger.

User Events

End Point prefix is /api/v2/user-events

The Event API enables you to create and edit periodic events such as deployments and holidays. Events can assist in the anomaly investigation process, by correlating them to alerts/anomalies/metrics in dashboards and alerts.

Each event has a category and a source. There is a specific set of APIs to enable to you manage all three entities.

Additional information is available in our Help center documentation

Tags

A tag is a property/value pair that can be dynamically added/removed to a metric or set of metrics without effecting the name of the metric.
For example: a tag can be accountManager=Joe which will be attached to the metrics related to the accounts Joe manages. If the accounts Joe manages change, the API lets you change the assignment of the tags to metrics without affecting the metric name. Tags can be used to filter and aggregate data.

Please note:

  1. If a tag already exists then the tag will be removed from metrics that previously matched the search expression. The tag will be added only to the metrics that match the current search expression.
  2. Tags MUST NOT contain the following characters:{ . SPACE}
  3. It can take up to 20 minutes until the metric tagging operation is applied to the relevant metrics.

End Point prefix is /v2/metrics/tags

Authentication type: Access Token Authentication.

Create Tags

To create a tag on a set of metrics that match a search expression. Multiple expressions can be associated to each tag which is treated an OR expression between them.

Assign Metrics to Tags

Assign one or more metrics to one or more tags.

The user will send an array of expressions that define the metrics he wants to assign the tags to.

Note: It can take up to 20 minutes until the metric tagging operation will be applied to the relevant metrics.

Important If a tag already exists then the tag will be removed from the metrics that previously matched the search expression; a tag will be added only to the metrics that match the current search expression.

Add Metrics to Tags

This method works similarly to Assign Metrics to Tags. Instead of removing metrics that were previously assigned to the requested tags, it adds the new metrics to the previous ones.

If a tag does not exist then it will create a new tag and assign the metrics to it.

Note: It can take up to 20 minutes until the metric tagging operation will be applied to the relevant metrics.

Dashboards

End Point **/api/v2/dashboards

Authentication type: Access Token Authentication.

Get Dashboards Count

Request Example:

curl --location --request GET 'https://app.anodot.com/api/v2/dashboards/count' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer {{bearer-token}}' \
--data-raw ''

Retrieves the number of dashboards defined in the account. This request has no body

Response Fields

Response Example:

{
    "dashboardsV1": 19,
    "dashboardsV2": 124
}

The response is the number of dashboards defined in the account, split into the two dashboard types - V1 and V2.

Field Type Description / Example
dashboardsV1 Number Number of V1 dashboards defined in the account.
dashboardsV2 Number Number of V2 dashboards defined in the account.

Please note - when converting dashboards from V1 to V2, we internally store a V1 version of the dashboard for backwards compatability. So - in case old dashboards were converted, the V1 + V2 count will be more than the number shown in the UI.

Topology

The Topology APIs enable you to load topology data such as Customers, Geographical and Network Information, the data is then presented over Anodot map view.

You can find more information about the Network Topology Map in our - Topology documentation

The Anodot Topology Data ingestion mechanism is made up of 3 APIs that should be used in the following order.

Topology User

End Point prefix is /api/v2/topology/user

Request Example: Create the topology user

curl -X PUT \
{
 "_id": "625bcc6e4af784000fc3128d"
}

Use this API to create a topology user.

Argument Description
id customerID Get CustomerID [Required]

Topology Data Ingestion

End Point prefix is /api/v2/topology/map/load

Anodot’s topology data ingestion mechanism operates on a full data set ingestion, partial additions are not supported.

During this process, the ingested data is first validated and only then loaded to overwrite the existing data stored in the topology entities.

The topology data-load APIs consist of three APIs that load the full updated topology data set:

Load Start

Request Example: Load start

curl -X POST \
https://app.anodot.com/api/v2/topology/map/load/start \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${TOKEN}"

Use this API to start the topology data load. This API is used to mark the process initiation.

The process retrieves a new “rollupid” to be used in the data ingestion API.
A successful response ("Response 200”) includes a new “rollupid”, which is used by the ‘Bulk entities load’ API.

Bulk Entities Load

Request Example: Bulk Entities Load

curl -X PUT \
https://app.anodot.com/api/v2/topology/map/load/{rollupId} \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${TOKEN}"
-d '{
  "bulkSerNumber": 1,
  "numberOfRows": 7,
  "type": "SITE",
  "rows": {
    "DFWIRV01CORE001": "{"id":"DFWIRV01CORE001","parentRegionId":"DFWIRV01","name":"DFWIRV01CORE001","latitude":"32.907385","longitude":"-97.03882","customer":"DFW"}",
    "DFWIRV01ENB001": "{"id":"DFWIRV01ENB001","parentRegionId":"DFWIRV01","name":"DFWIRV01ENB001","latitude":"32.906672","longitude":"-97.036331","customer":"DFW"}",
  },
  "rollupId": "6"
}'

Response - successful iteration

Response 200 example:

{
  "bulkSize": 500,
  "entityCounts": {},
  "insertErrors": [],
  "missingIds": {},
  "validationErrors": [],
  "rollupId": 26
}

Response - with failed entity records

Response with failed validations example:

{
    "rollupId": 28,
    "bulkSize": 6,
    "validationErrors": [
        {"type": "CELL","error": "entity failed on validation","json": "{\"relatedNodeId\":\"24722\",\"vendor\":\"Ericsson\",\"domain\":\"RAN;3G\",\"name\":\"U2477\",\"band\":\"2100\",\"id\":\"U2477\",\"lac\":\"333\"}"
        }
    ],
    "insertErrors": [],
    "missingIds": {},
    "entityCounts": {}
}

Use this API to load the topology data for each entity.

Use this API as a markup to end the topology load process. The API initiates internal enrichment processing and integrity validation between the topology entities. As a result, the execution time for this API may take several minutes. If the Integrity validation results include a certain amount of crucial mismatched data (according to internal thresholds), the topology data load will be aborted. {rollupId} is being retrived by the Load Start

This API loads a metric mapping of the user by mapping between the "Entity id" to the Metric dimension. This API is not used periodically but upon changes to the user metrics.

Request Arguments

Argument Description
Measure name Measure name as it appears in Anodot’s managed metrics. [Required]
delimiter This will be used in cases where metric dimension concatenation is required in order to create a matching value between the Anodot metrics and the topology entity “Dimension ID”. The delimiter is irrelevant in cases where there's only one property in the “properties” field. In these cases, the field can be empty or include any type of character. [Required]

For example:
Interface entity dimension ID : Router1/Interface10

Anodot metric mapping :
Measure: Traffic

Dimensions:
Host Name: Router1
Interface Name: Interface10

“delimiter”: “/”,
"properties": [“Router1”, “Interface10”]
properties The metric dimension that will be used as a matching property between the Anodot metric and the topology entity “Dimension ID”. [Required]
types Topology Entity Type (REGION, SITE, NODE, CARD, INTERFACE, LINK, CELL, SERVICE, APPLICATION, LOGICAL GROUP). [Required]
