Key features

API analytics

Track traffic, error and performance metrics for your API, each endpoint and individual API consumers, allowing you to make informed, data-driven engineering and product decisions.

Error tracking

Understand which validation rules in your endpoints cause client errors. Capture error details and stack traces for 500 error responses, and have them linked to Sentry issues automatically.

Request logging

Drill down from insights to individual requests or use powerful filtering to understand how consumers have interacted with your API. Configure exactly what is included in the logs to meet your requirements.

API monitoring & alerting

Get notified immediately if something isn't right using custom alerts, synthetic uptime checks and heartbeat monitoring. Notifications can be delivered via email, Slack or Microsoft Teams.

Install

Use pip to install and provide your framework of choice as an extra, for example:
