GraphQL Endpoint

The recommended way to search events using an API is to POST your query and variables to the appropriate Retraced GraphQL endpoint.

API Endpoint
Publisher https://api.retraced.io/publisher/v1/project/{projectId}/graphql
Admin https://api.retraced.io/admin/v1/project/{projectId}/environment/{environmentId}/graphql
Enterprise https://api.retraced.io/enterprise/v1/graphql
Viewer https://api.retraced.io/viewer/v1/graphql

The query root provides a search method. A fully-formed query for a subset of event fields would look like this:

{
  search(query:"action:user.login location:Germany", last:50, before:"opaquecursor") {
    totalCount
    pageInfo {
      hasNextPage
    }
    edges {
      cursor
      node {
        action
        actor {
          name
        }
        created
	country
      }
    }
  }
}

Variables

Use query, last, and before variables to enable reuse of your query templates. If you define a parameterized query like this…

const searchQuery = `query Search($query: String!, $last: Int, $before: String) {
  search(query:"action:user.login location:Germany", last:50, before:"opaquecursor") {
    totalCount
    pageInfo {
      hasNextPage
    }
    edges {
      cursor
      node {
        action
        actor {
          name
        }
        created
	country
      }
    }
  }
}`;

… then you can execute searches like this:

const vars = {
  query: "action:user.login location:German",
  last: 50,
  before: "opaquecursor",
};
const res = fetch("https://api.retraced.io/publisher/v1/project/3hf140713bn302/graphql", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "Accept": "application/json",
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Authorization": "Token token=2ba3059ad7f14071b9befb2a7a2e195e",
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    query: searchQuery,
    variables: vars,
  }),
});

Enums

CRUD

Create | Read | Update | Delete

Scalars

Boolean

The Boolean scalar type represents true or false.

ID

The ID scalar type represents a unique identifier, often used to refetch an object or as key for a cache. The ID type appears in a JSON response as a String; however, it is not intended to be human-readable. When expected as an input type, any string (such as "4") or integer (such as 4) input value will be accepted as an ID.

Int

The Int scalar type represents non-fractional signed whole numeric values. Int can represent values between -(2^31) and 2^31 - 1.

String

The String scalar type represents textual data, represented as UTF-8 character sequences. The String type is most often used by GraphQL to represent free-form human-readable text.
