Retries and asynchronous work

This change does not have a general retry guarantee. If the response is unclear, read the affected resource before trying again. Follow Retry-After waiting times and request new sign-in or action codes when they expire.

Request examples

Replace demo IDs, timestamps and placeholders with your own values. For a retry, keep the same IDs, time and content. These examples do not run requests on this page.

Keep login links, codes, cookies and keys private. Do not print them in logs or share them in support requests.

  • HTTP API, OAuth and MCP

    Find the user API endpoints, their permissions, fields, examples and response formats.

  • PATCH Mark job details as read

    Marks your job notices as read. Repeated confirmation is harmless; access is checked for every job.

  • POST Queue an authorized archive query

    Export numeric history at the selected raw, minute, quarter-hour or hourly resolution. Set multipart=true for up to 60,000 measurements and 25 MiB across at most 64 files, each limited to 2,000 measurements and 512 KiB. Set preview=true to estimate size without starting a job. Without multipart, existing single-file limits apply. Completed jobs include checksums and links for every part. UTC times, coverage, gap records and available counter increases/resets remain included. No part is published if the whole export fails. Cancel active jobs when no longer needed; downloads expire after one day. State and event history remains available as JSON.

  • DELETE Cancel your pending or running archive query

    Cancel your pending or running archive query.
