# Status.io API v2

Welcome to the official [Status.io](https://status.io) Developer API. This API is designed to help you seamlessly integrate your existing tools with your status page. API Testing Live Sandbox Use the built-in API client to test and debug API calls, and view example requests in multiple programming languages. **Caution:** These are live API calls and will make real changes to your status page. We s. The API exposes 36 endpoints.

## For AI agents

Programmatically admin/ip_access_control/list, admin/ip_access_control/update/ipv4. Covers 36 operations.

## Scope

Does not handle payments, crm, or developer tools - use for communications only.

## Capabilities

- admin/ip_access_control/list
- admin/ip_access_control/update/ipv4
- admin/ip_access_control/update/ipv6
- admin/ssl_cert/update
- component/list
- component/status/update
- incident/create

## Use cases

### Communications Operations

Use the Status.io API v2 to perform communications operations programmatically. The API provides 36 endpoints covering core functionality including admin/ip_access_control/list, admin/ip_access_control/update/ipv4, admin/ip_access_control/update/ipv6.

Example prompt: Call GET `/admin/ip_access_control/list/{statuspage_id}` to admin/ip_access_control/list

### Automated Components Management

Automate components operations by combining multiple Status.io API v2 endpoints. Agents can admin/ip_access_control/update/ipv4 and then admin/ip_access_control/update/ipv6 in a single workflow.

Example prompt: Call POST `/admin/ip_access_control/update/ipv4` to admin/ip_access_control/update/ipv4, then verify the result

### AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Status.io API v2 endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle none tokens manually.

Example prompt: Search Jentic for 'admin/ip_access_control/list', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

## Key endpoints

| Method | Path | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| GET | `/admin/ip_access_control/list/{statuspage_id}` | admin/ip_access_control/list |
| POST | `/admin/ip_access_control/update/ipv4` | admin/ip_access_control/update/ipv4 |
| POST | `/admin/ip_access_control/update/ipv6` | admin/ip_access_control/update/ipv6 |
| POST | `/admin/ssl_cert/update` | admin/ssl_cert/update |
| GET | `/component/list/{statuspage_id}` | component/list |
| POST | `/component/status/update` | component/status/update |
| POST | `/incident/create` | incident/create |
| POST | `/incident/delete` | incident/delete |

## Key resources

- **Components** — **Components** represent core system functions (e.g., website, API).

**Containers** can function as
- **Incidents** — Manage and track incidents
- **Maintenance** — Manage planned maintenance activities
- **Metrics** — Manage your custom metrics. Create new custom metrics in the [Dashboard](https://status.io/dashboard
- **Status** — Retrieve a summary of the current status of all components and containers

## Why Jentic

- **Setup:** Wiring the Status.io API by hand means learning its request conventions, mapping the component, incident and maintenance endpoints, and handling the admin IP and SSL calls yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Status.io API v2 from the API Directory, store the credential once, and your agent calls it.
- **Permission scoping:** You limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as listing components or creating an incident, so it never runs admin IP or deletion calls unless you include them. Because create and delete take their target in the request body, scope the agent by operation rather than by a single status page.
- **Credential handling:** Your Status.io credential is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
- **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'list status page components' or 'create an incident', and Jentic returns the matching Status.io API v2 operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

## FAQ

### What authentication does the Status.io API v2 use?

The Status.io API v2 uses no authentication. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

### Can I admin/ip_access_control/list with the Status.io API v2?

Yes. Use the GET `/admin/ip_access_control/list/{statuspage_id}` endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

### What are the rate limits for the Status.io API v2?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

### How do I admin/ip_access_control/list through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'admin/ip_access_control/list'. Jentic returns the matching Status.io API v2 operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

### How many endpoints does the Status.io API v2 have?

The Status.io API v2 exposes 36 endpoints covering components, incidents, maintenance operations.

### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Status.io API v2?

Yes. Because Jentic One is self-hosted, your own rules decide which Status.io operations and credential the agent may use, so you can allow it to list components or create an incident while excluding the admin IP access control, SSL certificate, and delete operations unless you add them. Since the create and delete calls take their target in the request body, scope the agent by operation rather than by a single status page. The credential is injected only for the operations you permit, so the agent cannot reach anything outside that set.
