For Agents

Read and update BugSnag errors, events, projects, releases, comments, and integrations across 141 endpoints to drive triage and release health workflows.

Quickstart

Get started with BugSnag - Data Access API in minutes using your preferred integration method.

# Add to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf)
{
  "jentic": {
    "url": "https://api.jentic.com/mcp",
    "auth": "oauth"
  }
}

# Then ask your agent:
"list errors on a BugSnag project"

# → Jentic returns the GET /events tool with parameter schema, agent executes.

Capabilities

Comment on errors and update or delete those comments programmatically

List, configure, test, and remove third-party integrations such as Jira or Slack on a project

View OpenAPI Document

Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI document for BugSnag - Data Access API, keeping it validated and agent-ready.

Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for BugSnag - Data Access API, keeping it validated and agent-ready. BugSnag is an error monitoring and stability scoring platform from SmartBear, and the Data Access API gives programmatic read and write access to organisations, projects, errors, events, releases, comments, integrations, and saved searches. Across 141 endpoints it covers the full lifecycle from error triage to release health analysis. Use it to push BugSnag data into custom dashboards, automate triage workflows, configure integrations, and run organisation-wide health reports.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use BugSnag - Data Access API API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Release Health Reporting

Generate post-deploy release health reports by querying GET /projects/{project_id}/trends and GET /projects/{project_id}/errors right after a release. Compare error counts and stability scores against the previous release window and flag regressions automatically. Saved searches can pre-define which errors qualify as release blockers, so the agent only acts on the right subset.

For project_id 12345, fetch trends for the last 24 hours and post a Slack message listing any error whose count grew more than 50% versus the prior window.

Automated Error Triage

Build a triage bot that listens for new BugSnag errors and routes them. The agent uses GET /projects/{project_id}/errors with filter parameters to find new unassigned errors, applies PATCH /projects/{project_id}/errors/{error_id} to assign or change severity, and posts a comment via POST /projects/{project_id}/errors/{error_id}/comments referencing the responsible deploy.

List unassigned errors created in the last hour for project_id 12345, assign them to engineer alice, and post a comment with the build SHA from CI.

Custom Integration Provisioning

Standardise project setup by configuring integrations through the API instead of clicking through the dashboard. POST /projects/{project_id}/configured_integrations attaches a Slack, Jira, or webhook integration, and POST /configured_integrations/{id}/test verifies it before going live. Use GET /integrations to discover what is supported.

Configure a Slack integration on a newly created BugSnag project pointing to channel #alerts, then run the test endpoint to confirm delivery.

AI Agent Incident Responder via Jentic

An on-call agent connected through Jentic can be paged with an error_id, fetch the latest event, summarise the stack trace, and propose a fix or assignment. The agent searches Jentic for view a BugSnag error, loads the GET /projects/{project_id}/errors/{error_id} schema, and chains GET /errors/{error_id}/latest_event for the freshest event payload — all using a vault-stored Personal Auth Token.

Search Jentic for view a BugSnag error, load the schema, fetch the error and its latest event, and post a triage summary as a comment on the error.

Why though Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Your BugSnag Personal Auth Token is stored encrypted in the Jentic vault. Agents never see the raw token — Jentic injects the Authorization header at execution time and returns only the API response.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic with intents like list bugsnag errors or post a triage comment, and Jentic returns the matching BugSnag operations with full input schemas, so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing 141 docs pages.

Time to first call

Direct BugSnag integration: 1-2 days to navigate the 141-endpoint surface, handle pagination, and wire up integrations. Through Jentic: under an hour — search, load, execute.

Related APIs

Alternatives and complements available in the Jentic catalogue.

Alternative

Bugfender API

Bugfender focuses on raw remote logging from mobile apps; BugSnag focuses on grouped error monitoring and stability scoring.

Choose Bugfender when you need verbose log capture per device; choose BugSnag when you want grouped errors, stability scores, and release health.

Complementary

BugHerd API

BugHerd captures human-reported visual bugs while BugSnag captures runtime errors automatically.

Use BugHerd alongside BugSnag to combine tester-filed UI bugs with crash data in a single triage workflow.

Complementary

Buildkite API

Buildkite ships releases whose stability BugSnag then measures.

Correlate a BugSnag stability dip to the Buildkite build that produced the release artefact.

FAQs

Specific to using BugSnag - Data Access API API through Jentic.

Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for BugSnag - Data Access API?

BugSnag does not publish a maintained OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call BugSnag - Data Access API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up.

What authentication does the BugSnag Data Access API use?

BugSnag uses a Personal Auth Token sent in the Authorization header with the prefix token, for example Authorization: token my_auth_token. Through Jentic, the token is stored encrypted in the vault and the header is constructed at execution time, never exposing the secret to the agent.

Can I update or resolve a BugSnag error through the API?

Yes. PATCH /projects/{project_id}/errors/{error_id} updates a single error's status, severity, or assignment, while PATCH /projects/{project_id}/errors performs bulk updates across many errors at once. DELETE on the same paths removes errors permanently.

How do I configure a Slack or Jira integration through the BugSnag API?

Call GET /integrations to list supported integration types, then POST /projects/{project_id}/configured_integrations with the integration parameters. Use POST /configured_integrations/{id}/test to verify the configuration is wired correctly before relying on it.

What are the rate limits for the BugSnag Data Access API?

BugSnag rate-limits the Data Access API per organisation, but the OpenAPI spec does not encode a hard quota. Add retry-with-backoff for HTTP 429 responses, and prefer saved searches plus trend endpoints over high-frequency event polling.

How do I list BugSnag errors from an AI agent through Jentic?

Run pip install jentic and authenticate with your ak_* key. Search Jentic with list errors on a BugSnag project, load the GET /projects/{project_id}/errors operation, and execute it with project_id. Jentic injects the Authorization header from your stored Personal Auth Token.
