# Dxc53 APIMAlerta

This API allows maintenance of alerts. The API exposes 2 endpoints.

## For AI agents

Programmatically access APIMAlerta resources. Covers 2 operations.

## Scope

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

## Capabilities

- Access APIMAlerta resources via REST API
- Manage developer tools data programmatically
- Integrate APIMAlerta into automated workflows
- Query and filter APIMAlerta records by parameters
- Monitor APIMAlerta operational status and events

## Use cases

### Developer Tools Operations

The API provides 2 endpoints for developer tools operations.

Example prompt: Execute a primary operation against the APIMAlerta

### Data Retrieval and Monitoring

Query APIMAlerta resources on a schedule to track changes, generate alerts, or feed downstream dashboards. Agents poll relevant endpoints, compare against previous state, and trigger actions when thresholds are crossed.

Example prompt: Poll the primary APIMAlerta endpoint, compare response to last known state, and alert if changed

### AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call APIMAlerta 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 'apimalerta', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

## Why Jentic

- **Setup:** Wiring APIMAlerta by hand means reading its OpenAPI definition, targeting the right SwaggerHub server, and hand-coding each alert call and its retries yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import APIMAlerta from the API Directory, store any credential it needs once, and your agent calls it.
- **Permission scoping:** APIMAlerta carries its alert target in the request body rather than the URL path, so limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as listing alerts for an activity. You choose the operations it may call, so writes like creating an alert are not included unless you add them.
- **Credential handling:** Any credential this API requires 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 alerts for an activity' or 'create an alert', and Jentic returns the matching APIMAlerta operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

## FAQ

### What authentication does the APIMAlerta use?

The APIMAlerta 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.

### What are the rate limits for the APIMAlerta?

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 use apimalerta through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'use apimalerta'. Jentic returns the matching APIMAlerta operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

### How many endpoints does the APIMAlerta have?

The APIMAlerta exposes 2 endpoints covering alerts operations.

### Does the APIMAlerta support pagination?

Pagination support depends on the specific endpoint. Check the endpoint parameters for page, limit, or offset fields. Through Jentic, the operation schema exposes all available parameters so agents can paginate automatically.

### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the APIMAlerta?

Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which APIMAlerta operations and credentials the agent may use. You can allow it to read alerts, such as listing the alerts for an activity, while excluding write operations like creating an alert unless you deliberately add them. Since APIMAlerta carries the alert target in the request body rather than the URL path, scoping is done at the operation level, so the agent can only call the endpoints you have permitted.
