Query Parameters
limitinteger | null
Limit the number of objects to return
0starting_afterstring
Pagination cursor id.
For example, if the final item in the last page you fetched had an id of foo, pass starting_after=foo to fetch the next page. Note: you may only pass one of starting_after and ending_before
"uuid"ending_beforestring
Pagination cursor id.
For example, if the initial item in the last page you fetched had an id of foo, pass ending_before=foo to fetch the previous page. Note: you may only pass one of starting_after and ending_before
"uuid"idsAny properties in string, array<string>
Filter search results to a particular set of object IDs. To specify a list of IDs, include the query param multiple times
experiment_namestring
Name of the experiment to search for
project_namestring
Name of the project to search for
project_idstring
Project id
"uuid"org_namestring
Filter search results to within a particular organization
Returns a list of experiment objects
v1/experimentCreate experiment
Create a new experiment. If there is an existing experiment in the project with the same name as the one specified in the request, will return the existing experiment unmodified

In: header
Request Body
application/jsonOptionalAny desired information about the new experiment object
project_idRequiredstring
Unique identifier for the project that the experiment belongs under
"uuid"namestring | null
Name of the experiment. Within a project, experiment names are unique

Id of default base experiment to compare against when viewing this experiment
"uuid"dataset_idstring | null
Identifier of the linked dataset, or null if the experiment is not linked to a dataset
"uuid"dataset_versionstring | null

publicboolean | null
Whether or not the experiment is public. Public experiments can be viewed by anybody inside or outside the organization
metadataobject | null
User-controlled metadata about the experiment
ensure_newboolean | null
Normally, creating an experiment with the same name as an existing experiment will return the existing one un-modified. But if ensure_new is true, registration will generate a new experiment with a unique name in case of a conflict.
Returns the new experiment object

Path Parameters
experiment_idRequiredstring
Experiment id
"uuid"Query Parameters
limitinteger | null
limit the number of traces fetched
Fetch queries may be paginated if the total result size is expected to be large (e.g. project_logs which accumulate over a long time). Note that fetch queries only support pagination in descending time order (from latest to earliest _xact_id. Furthermore, later pages may return rows which showed up in earlier pages, except with an earlier _xact_id. This happens because pagination occurs over the whole version history of the event log. You will most likely want to exclude any such duplicate, outdated rows (by id) from your combined result set.
The limit parameter controls the number of full traces to return. So you may end up with more individual rows than the specified limit if you are fetching events containing traces.
0max_xact_idstring
DEPRECATION NOTICE: The manually-constructed pagination cursor is deprecated in favor of the explicit 'cursor' returned by object fetch requests. Please prefer the 'cursor' argument going forwards.
Together, max_xact_id and max_root_span_id form a pagination cursor
Since a paginated fetch query returns results in order from latest to earliest, the cursor for the next page can be found as the row with the minimum (earliest) value of the tuple (_xact_id, root_span_id). See the documentation of limit for an overview of paginating fetch queries.
max_root_span_idstring
DEPRECATION NOTICE: The manually-constructed pagination cursor is deprecated in favor of the explicit 'cursor' returned by object fetch requests. Please prefer the 'cursor' argument going forwards.

versionstring
Retrieve a snapshot of events from a past time
The version id is essentially a filter on the latest event transaction id. You can use the max_xact_id returned by a past fetch as the version to reproduce that exact fetch.
Returns the fetched rows
v1/experiment/{experiment_id}/fetchFetch experiment (POST form)
Fetch the events in an experiment. Equivalent to the GET form of the same path, but with the parameters in the request body rather than in the URL query. For more complex queries, use the POST /btql endpoint.

An opaque string to be used as a cursor for the next page of results, in order from latest to earliest.
The string can be obtained directly from the cursor property of the previous fetch query
