The Atlas Administration API authenticates using HTTP Digest Authentication. Provide a programmatic API public key and corresponding private key as the username and password when constructing the HTTP request. To learn how to configure API access for an Atlas project, see Get Started with the Atlas Administration API.

Note

Groups and projects are synonymous terms. Your {GROUP-ID} is the same as your project ID. For existing groups, your group/project ID remains the same. The resource and corresponding endpoints use the term groups.

Syntax

GET /groups/{GROUP-ID}/events

Request Path Parameters

Path Element
Required/Optional
Description
GROUP-ID
Required
The unique identifier for the project in which the event associated to EVENT-ID occurred. Use the /groups endpoint to retrieve all projects to which the authenticated user has access.

Request Query Parameters

Description
Default
pageNum
integer
Optional
Page number, starting with one, that Atlas returns of the total number of objects.

itemsPerPage
integer
Optional
Number of items that Atlas returns per page, up to a maximum of 500.
100
includeCount
boolean
Optional
Flag that indicates whether Atlas returns the totalCount parameter in the response body.
true
pretty
boolean
Optional
Flag that indicates whether Atlas returns the JSON response in the prettyprint format.
false
envelope
boolean
Optional

Flag that indicates whether Atlas wraps the response in an envelope.

Some API clients cannot access the HTTP response headers or status code. To remediate this, set envelope=true in the query.

Endpoints that return a list of results use the results object as an envelope. Atlas adds the status parameter to the response body.

false
clusterNames
string
Optional

Cluster on which the events occurred. To return events from multiple clusters, specify multiple clusterNames query parameters. For example:

<Request URL>?clusterNames=Cluster1&clusterNames=Cluster2
eventType
string
Optional

Human-readable label that indicates the type of event.

Atlas accepts:
