API Endpoints

Administration endpoint

Use /admin/ to access the project’s admin pages.

Authorization

All endpoints require requests to contain a header with key Authorization and value Token {token}, where {token} is replaced by a registered auth token. These are generated per user by logging in through Feide, and can be found at /admin/authtoken/token/.

Auth endpoints

  • GET to /api/v1/auth/user/: returns the logged in user

    Example response body
      {
    "username": "username",
    "first_name": "User",
    "last_name": "Name",
    "email": "user@example.com",
    "phone_numbers": [
      {
        "pk": 6,
        "user": 2,
        "phone_number": "+4747474747"
      }
    ]
  }

  • GET to /api/v1/auth/users/<int:pk>/: returns a user by primary key (pk)

  • POST to /api/v1/token-auth/: returns an auth token for the posted user

    • Note that this token will expire after a certain amout of days that is set in the variable AUTH_TOKEN_EXPIRES_AFTER_DAYS in Site-specific settings (by default 14 days), and can be replaced by posting to the same endpoint.

    Example request body
      {
    "username": "alice",
    "password": "secret"
  }

  • /oidc/login/dataporten_feide/: redirects to Feide login

  • /api/v1/auth/phone-number/:

    • GET: returns the phone numbers of the logged in user

      Example response body
        [
    {
      "pk": 2,
      "user": 1,
      "phone_number": "+4767676767"
    },
    {
      "pk": 1,
      "user": 1,
      "phone_number": "+4790909090"
    }
  ]

    • POST: creates and returns the phone numbers of the logged in user

      Example request body
        {
    "pk": 2,
    "phone_number": "+4767676767"
  }

  • /api/v1/auth/phone-number/<int:pk>/:

    • GET: returns the specific phone number of the logged in user

      Example response body
        {
    "pk": 2,
    "user": 1,
    "phone_number": "+4767676767"
  }

    • PUT: updates and returns one of the logged in user’s phone numbers by primary key

      • Example request body: same as POST to /api/v1/auth/phone-number/

    • DELETE: deletes one of the logged in user’s phone numbers by primary key

    Note

    The phone number is validated using the python port of libphonenumber. It will check that the phone number is in a valid number series. Using a random number will not work.

Incident endpoints

  • /api/v1/incidents/:

    • GET: returns all incidents - both open and historic

      Query parameters: All query parameters are optional. If a query parameter is not included or empty, for instance acked=, then the rows returned are not affected by that filter and shows rows of all kinds of that value, for instance both “acked” and “unacked” in the case of acked=.

      Filtering parameters:

      acked=true|false

      Fetch only acked (true) or unacked (false) incidents.

      duration__gte=number

      Fetch only incidents that are or have been open for equal to or more than (number) minutes.

      end_time__gte=end-time

      Fetch only incidents that ended on or later than (end-time).

      end_time__isnull=true|false

      Fetch only stateless (true) or stateful (false) incidents.

      end_time__lte=end-time

      Fetch only incidents that ended on or earlier than (end-time).

      level__lte=1|2|3|4|5

      Fetch only incidents that have a level less or equal than (level).

      open=true|false

      Fetch only open (true) or closed (false) incidents.

      stateful=true|false

      Fetch only stateful (true) or stateless (false) incidents.

      source__id__in=ID1[,ID2,..]

      Fetch only incidents with a source with numeric id ID1 or ID2 or..

      source__name__in=NAME1[,NAME2,..]

      Fetch only incidents with a source with name NAME1 or NAME2 or..

      source__type__in=NAME1[,NAME2,..]

      Fetch only incidents with a source of a type with numeric id ID1 or ID2 or..

      source_incident_id=ID

      Fetch only incidents with source_incident_id set to ID.

      start_time__gte=start-time

      Fetch only incidents that started on or later than (start-time).

      start_time__lte=start-time

      Fetch only incidents that started on or earlier than (start-time).

      stateful=true|false

      Fetch only stateful (true) or stateless (false) incidents.

      ticket=true|false

      Fetch only incidents with a ticket url (true) or without (false).

      tags=key1=value1,key1=value2,key2=value

      Fetch only incidents with one or more of the tags. Tag-format is “key=value”. If there are multiple tags with the same key, only one of the tags needs to match. If there are multiple keys, one of each key must match.

      So:

      URL reformatted for readability
        /api/v1/incidents/?acked=false\
                  &open=true\
                  &stateful=true\
                  &source__id__in=1\
                  &tags=\
                    location=broomcloset,\
                    location=understairs,\
                    problem=onfire

      will fetch incidents that are all of “open”, “unacked”, “stateful”, from source number 1, with “location” either being “broomcloset” or “understairs”, and that is on fire.

      Note

      If the boolean parameters are not given a value or are left out, that is interpreted as not filtering at all on that parameter, showing both true and false entries.

      Paginating parameters:

      cursor=LONG RANDOM STRING|null

      Go to the page of that cursor. The cursor string for next and previous page is part of the response body.

      page_size=INTEGER

      The number of rows to return. Default is 100.

      So: api/v1/incidents/?cursor=cD0yMDIw&page_size=10 will go to the page indicated by cD0yMDIw and show the next 10 rows from that point onward. Do not attempt to guess the cursor string. null means there is no more to fetch.

      Example response body
        {
      "next": "http://localhost:8000/api/v1/incidents/?cursor=cD0yMDIwLTA5LTIzKzEzJTNBMDIlM0ExNi40NTU4MzIlMkIwMCUzQTAw&page_size=10",

              "pk": 12,
              "username": "nav.oslo.sikt.no"
          },
          "timestamp": "2011-11-11T11:11:11+02:00",
          "received": "2011-11-11T11:12:11+02:00",
          "type": {
              "value": "STA",
              "display": "Incident start"
          },

      The received parameter is set by Argus upon reception of an event. Usually, this is same as, or a little later, than timestamp of the incident. If there is a large time gap between both, or received is earlier than timestamp, something may be wrong with the internal clock either on the argus server or on the event source.

    • POST: creates and returns an event related to the specified incident

      Example request body
        {
      "timestamp": "2020-02-20 20:02:20.202021",
      "type": "OTH",
      "description": "The investigation is still ongoing."
  }

      If the event is posted by an end user (a user with no associated source system), the timestamp field is optional. It will default to the time the server received the event.

      The valid types are:

      • STA - Incident start

      An incident automatically creates an event of this type when the incident is created, but cannot have more than one. In other words, it’s never allowed to post an event of this type.

      • END - Incident end

      Only source systems can post an event of this type, which is the standard way of closing an indicent. An incident cannot have more than one event of this type.

      • CLO - Close

      Only end users can post an event of this type, which manually closes the incident.

      • REO - Reopen

      Only end users can post an event of this type, which reopens the incident if it has been closed (either manually or by a source system).

      • ACK - Acknowledge

      Use the /api/v1/incidents/<int:pk>/acks/ endpoint.

      • OTH - Other

      Any other type of event, which simply provides information on something that happened related to an incident, without changing its state in any way.

  • GET to /api/v1/incidents/<int:pk>/events/<int:pk>/: returns a specific event related to the specified incident

  • /api/v1/incidents/<int:pk>/acks/:

    • GET: returns all acknowledgements of the specified incident

      "expiration": "2011-11-13 12:00:00"

      The optional key all_day indicates that Argus should use Time.min and Time.max as start and end respectively. This also overrides any provided values for start and end. An example request body:

      {
    "name": "All the time",
    "time_recurrences": [
        {
            "days": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7],
            "all_day": true
        }
    ]
}

      which would yield the response:

      {
    "pk": 2,
    "name": "All the time",
    "time_recurrences": [
        {
            "days": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7],

  • GET to /api/v2/auth/users/<int:pk>/: returns a user by primary key (pk)

  • POST to /api/v2/token-auth/: returns an auth token for the posted user

    • Note that this token will expire after a certain amout of days that is set in the variable AUTH_TOKEN_EXPIRES_AFTER_DAYS in Site-specific settings (by default 14 days), and can be replaced by posting to the same endpoint.

    Example request body
      {
    "username": "alice",
    "password": "secret"
  }

  • POST to /api/v2/refresh-token/: returns an auth token for the currently logged in user

    • Note that this token will expire after a certain amout of days that is set in the variable AUTH_TOKEN_EXPIRES_AFTER_DAYS in Site-specific settings (by default 14 days), and can be replaced by posting to the same endpoint.

  • /oidc/login/dataporten_feide/: redirects to Feide login

Incident endpoints

  • /api/v2/incidents/:

    • GET: returns all incidents - both open and historic

      Query parameters: All query parameters are optional. If a query parameter is not included or empty, for instance acked=, then the rows returned are not affected by that filter and shows rows of all kinds of that value, for instance both “acked” and “unacked” in the case of acked=.

      Filtering parameters:

      acked=true|false

      Fetch only acked (true) or unacked (false) incidents.

      duration__gte=number

      Fetch only incidents that are or have been open for equal to or more than (number) minutes.

      end_time__gte=end-time

      Fetch only incidents that ended on or later than (end-time).

      end_time__isnull=true|false

      Fetch only stateless (true) or stateful (false) incidents.

      end_time__lte=end-time

      Fetch only incidents that ended on or earlier than (end-time).

      level__lte=1|2|3|4|5

      Fetch only incidents that have a level less or equal than (level).

      open=true|false

      Fetch only open (true) or closed (false) incidents.

      stateful=true|false

      Fetch only stateful (true) or stateless (false) incidents.

      source__id__in=ID1[,ID2,..]

      Fetch only incidents with a source with numeric id ID1 or ID2 or..

      source__name__in=NAME1[,NAME2,..]

      Fetch only incidents with a source with name NAME1 or NAME2 or..

      source__type__in=NAME1[,NAME2,..]

      Fetch only incidents with a source of a type with numeric id ID1 or ID2 or..

      source_incident_id=ID

      Fetch only incidents with source_incident_id set to ID.

      start_time__gte=start-time

      Fetch only incidents that started on or later than (start-time).

      start_time__lte=start-time

      Fetch only incidents that started on or earlier than (start-time).

      stateful=true|false

      Fetch only stateful (true) or stateless (false) incidents.

      ticket=true|false

      Fetch only incidents with a ticket url (true) or without (false).

      tags=key1=value1,key1=value2,key2=value

      Fetch only incidents with one or more of the tags. Tag-format is “key=value”. If there are multiple tags with the same key, only one of the tags needs to match. If there are multiple keys, one of each key must match.

      So:

      URL reformatted for readability
        /api/v1/incidents/?acked=false\
                  &open=true\
                  &stateful=true\
                  &source__id__in=1\
                  &tags=\
                    location=broomcloset,\
                    location=understairs,\
                    problem=onfire

      will fetch incidents that are all of “open”, “unacked”, “stateful”, from source number 1, with “location” either being “broomcloset” or “understairs”, and that is on fire.

      Note

      If the boolean parameters are not given a value or are left out, that is interpreted as not filtering at all on that parameter, showing both true and false entries.

      Paginating parameters:

      cursor=LONG RANDOM STRING|null

      Go to the page of that cursor. The cursor string for next and previous page is part of the response body.

      page_size=INTEGER

      The number of rows to return. Default is 100.

      So: api/v2/incidents/?cursor=cD0yMDIw&page_size=10 will go to the page indicated by cD0yMDIw and show the next 10 rows from that point onward. Do not attempt to guess the cursor string. null means there is no more to fetch.

      The received parameter is set by Argus upon reception of an event. Usually, this is same as, or a little later, than timestamp of the incident. If there is a large time gap between both, or received is earlier than timestamp, something may be wrong with the internal clock either on the argus server or on the event source.

    • POST: creates and returns an event related to the specified incident

      Example request body
        {
      "timestamp": "2020-02-20 20:02:20.202021",
      "type": "OTH",
      "description": "The investigation is still ongoing."
  }

      If the event is posted by an end user (a user with no associated source system), the timestamp field is optional. It will default to the time the server received the event.

      The valid types are:

      • STA - Incident start

      An incident automatically creates an event of this type when the incident is created, but cannot have more than one. In other words, it’s never allowed to post an event of this type.

      • END - Incident end

      Only source systems can post an event of this type, which is the standard way of closing an indicent. An incident cannot have more than one event of this type.

      • CLO - Close

      Only end users can post an event of this type, which manually closes the incident.

      • REO - Reopen

      Only end users can post an event of this type, which reopens the incident if it has been closed (either manually or by a source system).

      • ACK - Acknowledge

      Use the /api/v1/incidents/<int:pk>/acks/ endpoint.

      • OTH - Other

      Any other type of event, which simply provides information on something that happened related to an incident, without changing its state in any way.

  • GET to /api/v2/incidents/<int:pk>/events/<int:pk>/: returns a specific event related to the specified incident
