# NetAlertX API Documentation
This API provides programmatic access to **devices, events, sessions, metrics, network tools, and sync** in NetAlertX. It is implemented as a **REST and GraphQL server**. All requests require authentication via **API Token** (`API_TOKEN` setting) unless explicitly noted.
```graphql
curl 'http://host:GRAPHQL_PORT/graphql' \
-X POST \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer API_TOKEN' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"query": "query GetDevices($options: PageQueryOptionsInput) { devices(options: $options) { devices { rowid devMac devName devOwner devType devVendor devLastConnection devStatus } count } }",
"variables": {
"options": {
"page": 1,
"limit": 10,
"sort": [{ "field": "devName", "order": "asc" }],
"search": "",
"status": "connected"
}
}
}'
```
It runs on `0.0.0.0:<graphql_port>` with **CORS enabled** for all main endpoints.
---
## Authentication
All endpoints require an API token provided in the HTTP headers:
```http
Authorization: Bearer <API_TOKEN>
```
If the token is missing or invalid, the server will return:
```json
{ "error": "Forbidden" }
```
---
## Base URL
```
http://<server>:<GRAPHQL_PORT>/
```
---
## Endpoints
* [Device API Endpoints](API_DEVICE.md) Manage individual devices
* [Devices Collection](API_DEVICES.md) Bulk operations on multiple devices
* [Events](API_EVENTS.md) Device event logging and management
* [Sessions](API_SESSIONS.md) Connection sessions and history
* [Metrics](API_METRICS.md) Prometheus metrics and per-device status
* [Network Tools](API_NETTOOLS.md) Utilities like Wake-on-LAN, traceroute, nslookup, nmap, and internet info
* [Online History](API_ONLINEHISTORY.md) Online/offline device records
* [GraphQL](API_GRAPHQL.md) Advanced queries and filtering
* [Sync](API_SYNC.md) Synchronization between multiple NetAlertX instances
See [Testing](API_TESTS.md) for example requests and usage.
---
## Notes
* All endpoints enforce **Bearer token authentication**.
* Errors return JSON with `success: False` and an error message.
* GraphQL is available for advanced queries, while REST endpoints cover structured use cases.
* Endpoints run on `0.0.0.0:<GRAPHQL_PORT>` with **CORS enabled**.
* Use consistent API tokens and node/plugin names when interacting with `/sync` to ensure data integrity.
