POST
/v1/projects/{id}/actions
API keyCreate a runbook action
An action is an HTTP call the daemon makes on your behalf when an alert fires. events defaults to alert.opened; alert.escalated is opt-in per action. The timeout is capped so a slow target cannot pin the worker, and header names and values are length- and charset-limited like every other field here.
headers and body are sealed at rest and never echoed back by a read, so a read-modify-write update that omits them keeps what is stored rather than clearing it.

POST
/v1/account/devices
session tokenRegister a device push token (account plane)
The same registry as POST /v1/devices, reached with a session token instead of a tenant API key. Prefer this one.
Registering a handset was never a tenant-scoped act — a device token belongs to an account, and the tenant key was only ever expressing which bearer the client happened to hold. Authenticating it with a tenant key becomes wrong once a tenant's data plane can live on a box the tenant runs: that tenant's only data key is minted by its box, and no data key issued anywhere would reach this registry. A session token has neither problem, and it exists before any tenant is selected.
Body, token format, critical_alerts, and the 20-per-account limit are identical to POST /v1/devices. The tenant-key routes remain for shipped clients.

example
curl https://api.pingtower.com/v1/devices \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ptk_<tenant>_..."
Register a device push token
The token is account-scoped, not tenant-scoped: the same handset registered from two tenants resolves to one row per account. Another account registering the same physical device does not retire this account's row.
That makes DELETE /v1/devices/{token} the client's sign-out obligation. Call it before a different account signs in on this device, or the outgoing account keeps receiving its tenant's pushes here. An uninstall is reclaimed without client cooperation — APNs reports the token permanently gone and the daemon prunes it.
The token must be exactly 64 hex characters, the format Apple's token-based provider API expects. The strictness is deliberate: two strings differing only in case or in stray characters would otherwise each take their own row while addressing the same handset.
critical_alerts is optional and defaults to false. It is the handset's own answer to whether a critical push would actually break through Do Not Disturb, a Focus, or a silenced ringer — an omitted key (every shipped App Store build today) means the daemon must not treat this device as able to receive one. Every registration is a complete, fresh report: re-registering with a changed value overwrites what is stored, in either direction.

integrations
Typed delivery channels — webhook, Telegram, Slack, and APNs.

API keyCreate a typed integration
Which credential fields are required depends on type: webhook needs url (secret is optional and minted when absent), telegram needs token and chat_id, slack needs webhook_url.
An apns integration takes no credentials at all. The push provider key is one operator-wide credential rather than a per-project one, and its recipients come from tenant membership — so every credential field is rejected on that type rather than quietly ignored.

pairing
Linking a hosted account to a box account, and deciding whose phone rings.
Redeem a pairing code for a data credential
The box half of pairing, and the only route in the product that mints a tenant API key without a session. The code is the credential: a one-shot secret the box's operator issued with `pingtower pair` and read out to a person, valid for an hour and unrecoverable from the database afterwards.
What comes back is a `ptk_` this box minted for an account this box holds, so the data plane it opens is the box's own — no assertion signed elsewhere, and nothing that stops working when pingtower.com does. The receipt alongside it is for pingtower.com, which redeems it once at GET /v1/pair/verify to satisfy itself that the person claiming this pairing really did pair.
Every failure answers 401 with one message. "Already redeemed" and "no such code" are exactly the distinction a holder of a candidate code would like back, and neither helps the legitimate holder, who has the operator standing next to them.

API key
manager roleIssue a pairing code for someone joining this box
Mints a one-shot code that admits one person to this tenant, and returns a join code carrying it once this box knows its counterpart on pingtower.com. Manager-gated: issuing a code is the act of admitting somebody, which is the same rank that decides who this tenant's pages reach.
It exists so that adding a teammate does not require a shell on the box. `pingtower pair` is still the bootstrap path and still the one that works when nothing else does — on a new box there is no account, no membership, and no key to authenticate this call with.
The code names a **seat**, not an account: whoever redeems it brings or creates their own account on this box, with a password they choose. Nothing is created here, so a code that is never redeemed leaves nothing behind — unlike the CLI's account-bound form, which creates an account, a membership, and a generated password whether or not anybody turns up.
`email` optionally binds the seat to one address, and is worth setting whenever the issuer knows who they are inviting: an unbound seat is one that whoever holds the code may take, so a leaked code admits a stranger rather than the intended person. A code may not be issued at a role above the issuer's own.
`ttl_seconds` defaults to an hour and is capped at seven days. An hour suits a code read out while somebody is standing there; a seat sent by chat is acted on later.

Redeem a pairing receipt (called by pingtower.com)
The other end of the callback. pingtower.com fetches this once, while the user is waiting, to learn which of the box's accounts a receipt vouches for — without it, any signed-in account that learned a tenant id could attach itself to that tenant's roster.
It answers the box account id and nothing else, and the receipt is one-shot and short-lived, so a caller who somehow guessed one learns an identifier they had already claimed to know.
Clients do not call this. It is documented because a self-hoster's box must answer it, and because an operator reading their access log is entitled to know what pingtower.com asked for.

session tokenLink this account to a box account
Records that the caller is a particular account on the tenant's box, and therefore that this account's phones may be paged for that tenant. It grants no data access: on a self-hosted tenant that is the box's to grant, which is also why invite and role-change refuse for these tenants.
The tenant's first pairing is self-authorizing — the account that created the tenant is the one that just set its data plane URL — and is the only one that receives the relay credential, since that credential authorizes paging the whole tenant. Every pairing after it must present a receipt, which pingtower.com redeems against the box before writing anything.
That redemption runs pingtower.com→box, over public HTTPS, through the SSRF-guarded client. So the requirement it implies is worth stating plainly: a box on a private address or a tailnet can pair the person who created the tenant and nobody after. The phone may be on the tailnet; pingtower.com never is. A team's box needs a publicly resolvable HTTPS endpoint, and the 401 this route answers with says so.

GET
/v1/tenants/{tid}/pairings
session tokenList who on this tenant is pageable, and who was
The roster behind the pages. Each row names a hosted account, the box account it is linked to, when the link was made, and `revoked_at` — null while the pairing is live. Revoked rows are returned deliberately: "was paired and is not any more" is what an owner auditing the roster is looking for, and omitting them would make a revocation look identical to never having paired.
A box cannot answer this itself. The pairings live on pingtower.com, so a box's own escalation ladder renders names it has no way to resolve a pairing for — a rung that pages nobody looks exactly like one that works. A client holding both hosts joins this list to the box's ladder on `box_account_id` and can say which is which.
Visible to any member rather than to managers only: knowing whether you yourself are pageable is not privileged, and it is the fact a person most needs before the night they are not woken. A hosted tenant has no box, so it answers 409 rather than an empty list, which would read as a tenant that pages nobody.

The act that stops the pages, and the counterpart to removing someone's box membership, which stops their data access. Neither implies the other: doing only the first leaves a leaver reading and writing the data in silence, and doing only the second leaves them receiving pushes that carry log lines.
It writes one column on one row and consults nothing else, so nothing about the tenant's schedules, ladders, or store can make it fail. Revoking the last pairing is allowed and means "this box pages nobody". Re-pairing restores it.

relay
Receiving a self-hosted box's alerts and paging its tenant's phones.
Read whether this box can page a phone
Answers whether a relay credential has been configured on this tenant, and the URL its alerts are sent to. The secret is never returned.
It exists so "does this page anybody?" is a question with an answer. A ladder rung that pages nobody looks identical to one that works, and the version of that discovery nobody wants is the one made during an incident.
A tenant hosted by pingtower.com answers `configured: false` and always will: it has no box, and its pushes go out through its own apns integration instead.

API key
manager roleConfigure where this box sends alerts to be paged
Records the relay credential pingtower.com minted at pairing, and wires every project on this tenant to it — the ones that exist now, and the ones created afterwards, which inherit it at creation.
That second half is the point of the route. Delivery endpoints are per project, so configuring a relay by hand would mean pasting a credential once per project, and a project created next week would page nobody with nothing to say so. The endpoint it writes is an ordinary webhook integration named "pingtower.com relay": same outbox, same HMAC signature, same retry and circuit breaker as any endpoint configured by hand.
The app calls this, not a person. It holds both ends of the pairing moment — the code it just redeemed here, and the credential it just received from pingtower.com — so no operator copies a secret between two web UIs.
Manager-gated: it decides where this tenant's alerts go to become pages, which is the same rank that decides who those pages reach. Writing it again replaces the credential rather than adding a second relay, so rotating a compromised key is this call with the new secret.
The secret is write-only. No read route selects it, so a box member cannot recover it from a project they can otherwise see.
`hosted_tenant_id` and `box_public_url` are the other half of the same link, and both are optional. They tell the box which tenant it is on pingtower.com and the URL pingtower.com reaches it at — two facts a box cannot derive, since the ids are separate namespaces and a box behind a proxy does not reliably know the name it is reached by. `pingtower pair` reads them back to print a single join code instead of leaving an operator to read out three strings. Neither is a secret: knowing a tenant id grants nothing, because every pairing but a tenant's first must survive the verify callback.
They are recorded only when both are present, so a half-written counterpart cannot produce a join code that resolves to the wrong place. Omitting them leaves whatever was recorded before untouched.

Relay a self-hosted alert to its tenant's phones
The one inbound route a self-hosted box calls, and the reason self-hosting can page a phone at all. The box's rule fires, its ladder resolves, its outbox delivers the resulting event here, and pingtower.com sends the push under the operator's APNs credential — which is the one thing a box cannot do for itself, because Apple accepts a push for an app's bundle id only from a key issued under the team that owns it.
Clients do not call this. A box does, and it does so as an ordinary HMAC-signed webhook delivery: the body is the same `WebhookEvent` any webhook endpoint receives, signed the same way, retried by the same durable outbox. The relay key id rides in the path because a webhook endpoint holds a URL and a secret and nothing else, so there is nowhere to put a header — which is what keeps the box's half of the relay configuration rather than code.
The tenant comes from the key id and never from the body. A tenant id read out of relayed JSON would let any box page any tenant's phones.
An unknown key id, a revoked key id, and a bad signature answer alike, so the route cannot be used to enumerate live keys. A timestamp more than five minutes from now is refused separately — only a caller already holding the secret can reach that check. The body is capped at 64KB and refused on Content-Length before it is read, and each tenant's relay traffic is rate limited on the far side of the key lookup.
Delivery is at-least-once, so the route is idempotent on (tenant, alert, event, timestamp): a replayed delivery answers 200 without sending a second push. A delivery whose push fails answers 5xx *and* forgets the claim, so the box's retry is treated as a first attempt.
Whose phones ring is decided by `box_pairings`, on every event kind. An escalation's `page_accounts` arrive as box account ids and are translated; every other event kind fans out to the tenant's members narrowed to those holding a live pairing. A box account with no live pairing resolves to no devices either way, which is what makes revoking a pairing stop pages immediately.

sources
Named event producers within a project, each holding an ingest token.
GET
/v1/projects/{id}/sources
API keyList a project's sources
Each source is one named event producer. The listing never returns a source's ingest token — that is shown once, when the source is created or its token is rotated.
Path parameters
id
string
required
The project name.

POST
/v1/projects/{id}/sources
API keyCreate a source
Mints the source's pti_ ingest token and returns it once. Store it when you see it; there is no route that reads it back, only rotate-token, which replaces it.
retain_logs decides whether this source's events are kept for GET /v1/projects/{id}/logtail. Omitted on create it means "do not retain", which is why it is optional here and required on update.
