Learn more about [API keys here](https://docs.honeycomb.io/configure/environments/manage-api-keys/). - name: Queries description: > Queries in Honeycomb are specifications for queries, and are used to identify queries in other parts of the API - in particular: boards, triggers, and query annotations. This API allows you to create and get query objects. ## Authorization The API key must have the **Manage Queries and Columns** permission. Learn more about [API keys here](https://docs.honeycomb.io/configure/environments/manage-api-keys/). - name: Query Annotations description: > Query Annotations in Honeycomb allow you to associate names and descriptions to queries to add additional information in collaboration features. This API allows you to list, create, update, and delete Query Annotations. ## Authorization The API key must have the **Manage Queries and Columns** permission. Learn more about [API keys here](https://docs.honeycomb.io/configure/environments/manage-api-keys/). - name: Query Data description: > This feature is available as part of the [Honeycomb Enterprise plan](https://www.honeycomb.io/pricing/). Query Results are the aggregated data from a Query, similar to what is displayed in graphs or heatmaps within the Honeycomb UI. Receiving results from a Query is a three-step process: Create the Query (or Query Spec), which validates that the query parameters are valid. Creating a query does not actually run the query to get results. Run the query asynchronously by creating a Query Result referencing the Query’s ID. This returns a Query Result ID. Poll the query result endpoint (with the Query Result ID) until the data is ready. Note that many Query Results can be created from a single Query. This is particularly useful when using a relative time_range parameter in the Query. For example, a Query with `time_range: 7200` and no explicit `start_time` or `end_time` can be re-run over and over, with each resulting Query Result containing the most recent 2 hours of data. This is conceptually similar to clicking Run Query in the Honeycomb UI without changing any query parameters. **IMPORTANT API RESTRICTIONS:** To ensure the stability of Honeycomb systems, we have enabled the following API restrictions. These restrictions may change over time. * Query Results can only be created for events with timestamps within the past 7 days. * When creating a Query Result, the time ranges from the Query are truncated according to the following rules. For queries with a time range of: * less than or equal to 6 hours, results are truncated to the nearest 1 minute. For example, a start/end time of 2021-04-22T05:28:12Z will be truncated to 2021-04-22T05:28:00Z. * greater than 6 hours and less than or equal to 2 days, results are truncated to the nearest 5 minutes. For example, a start/end time of 2021-04-22T05:28:12Z will be truncated to 2021-04-22T05:25:00Z. * greater than 2 days and less than or equal to 7 days, results are truncated to the nearest 30 minutes. For example, a start/end time of 2021-04-22T05:28:12Z will be truncated to 2021-04-22T05:00:00Z. * Creating a Query Result is rate limited to 10 requests per minute. Status code 429 will be returned when rate limited. * Query Results cannot take longer than 10 seconds to run. * Creating a Query Result that contains Relational Fields is rate limited to 1 request per minute. Status code 429 will be returned when rate limited. * Query Results with Relational Fields may be more likely to take longer to run. * Regardless of whether the `compare_time_offset_seconds` field is populated on a query, query run responses will not include comparison results. ## Authorization The API key must have the **Manage Queries and Columns** and **Run Queries** permission. Learn more about [API keys here](https://docs.honeycomb.io/configure/environments/manage-api-keys/). - name: Recipients description: > Honeycomb Recipients allow you to define and manage the Recipients that will get notified by a Trigger or Burn Alert. The types of Recipients supported are: PagerDuty, Email, Webhook, Microsoft Teams, and Slack. ## Authorization The API key must have the **Manage Recipients** permission.
