Get a fault's occurrence counts

API v3 is in preview

Endpoints and response shapes can change before general availability. API v2 is unchanged.

GET https://app.honeybadger.io/v3/projects/{project_id}/faults/{fault_id}/occurrences

Required scope faults:read

Returns a fault’s occurrence counts over a window, set with occurred_after and occurred_before. With neither, the window is the last hour; with only occurred_before, the hour before it; with only occurred_after, from then until now. A start older than the project’s retention is moved up to it.

The bucket size depends on the window’s length. meta.window gives the window served and meta.interval_seconds the bucket size. Every interval is included, with 0 where there were no occurrences.

Example request

curl "https://app.honeybadger.io/v3/projects/$PROJECT_ID/faults/$FAULT_ID/occurrences" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HONEYBADGER_API_TOKEN"

Parameters

5

Path parameters

Field	Type	Description
project_id required	string	Project ID.
fault_id required	string	Fault ID.

Query parameters

Field	Type	Description
occurred_after	number	Only occurrences after this Unix timestamp (seconds, not ISO 8601). A value before the project's retention window is moved up to it. On the fault list, occurrence counts cover this window.
occurred_before	number	Only occurrences before this Unix timestamp (seconds, not ISO 8601).
q	string	Search query, in the syntax of the web UI's error search, such as environment:production, is:resolved or class:ArgumentError. Prefix a filter with - to negate it. See Error search for the syntax and filters. Filters that need the search index return nothing when it holds no data for the project.

Response schema10

Field	Type	Description
data required	array<object>	Buckets in ascending time order, one per interval across the served window.
data[].timestamp required	integer	Start of the bucket, as a Unix timestamp.
data[].count required	integer	Occurrences within the bucket.
meta	object
meta.request_id	string	Unique identifier for the request, for correlating with support.
meta.window	object	The window actually served.
meta.window.occurred_after required	number	Unix timestamp, preserving fractional seconds.
meta.window.occurred_before required	number	Unix timestamp, preserving fractional seconds.
meta.interval_seconds	integer | null	Spacing between bucket timestamps. Null when the requested window falls entirely outside retention.
meta.retention_truncated	boolean	Whether retention narrowed the requested window.

301 This fault was merged into another fault.

Location is the same resource on the fault it was merged into: …/faults/<survivor> for the fault, or the same subresource path and query for occurrences, affected users and notices. Only reads redirect; writes get a 409 fault_merged.

401 Unauthorized

The credential is missing, invalid, expired or revoked (unauthorized), or was sent in a way v3 doesn’t accept (see the examples).

  },
  "meta": {

403 Forbidden

The credential isn’t allowed to do this. error.code says why. An account or project the credential doesn’t cover is 404 not_found, not 403.

Example payload: access_denied (The credential isn't allowed to do this to this record)

{
  "error": {

      ]
    }
  },
  "meta": {
    "request_id": "abc123"
  }
}

Example payload: requires_user_token (The endpoint records who acted, and an account token has nobody)

{
  "error": {
    "code": "requires_user_token",
    "message": "This endpoint records the person who acted, so it requires a user credential rather than an account token"
  },
  "meta": {
    "request_id": "abc123"

}

Example payload: project_restricted (A project-restricted credential cannot create a project)

422 Unprocessable Content

No path names the account, so the API token has to. This is returned when the token covers more than one account and the account a request applies to cannot be determined. Use a token bound to a single account.

Example payload

{
  "error": {
    "code": "ambiguous_account",
    "message": "This credential covers more than one account, so the account a request applies to is ambiguous. Use a token bound to a single account."
  },
