JSON via HTTP/S

Ship JSON logs using HTTP/S to your Logit.io Stack

If you have logs that are in JSON format, you can send them to your Logit.io Stack using the HTTP/S API. This is a great way to send logs from applications that do not have a native integration with Logit.io or for custom applications.

Logs

Send JSON logs to your Logit.io Stack via your Logit.io API endpoint.

Install Integration

Please click on the Install Integration button to configure your stack for this source.

Requirements

  • Valid JSON content
  • API key, sent in the headers. If you are logged into your Logit.io account the API key and endpoint should be automatically populated in the examples below.
  • Content-Type header set as application/json
  • Either POST or PUT to https://@logitApiEndpoint/v2

Send a single JSON log using curl

curl -i -H "ApiKey: @apikey" -i -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "LogType: json" https://@logitApiEndpoint/v2 -d '{"test":"test","example": { "a": 1, "b": 2 } }'

Response from Logit.io

You should expect to receive a 202 ACCEPTED response code for a successful message

HTTP/1.1 202 ACCEPTED
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: 39
Connection: keep-alive
Server: Logit-API-Server

{"message":"Message Received, Thanks"}

Send JSON log files using curl

It is also possible to test sending logs in a JSON file to Logit.io.

Create a new file in the same directory as your command prompt and copy the snippet below and save it as sample.json.

{
  "name": "Jason",
  "city": "Jakarta",
  "display": "Hello there from JSON file",
  "value": 5
}

The following command should now be entered into the command prompt, this will send the file to Logit.io:

curl -i -H "ApiKey: @apikey" -i -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "LogType: json" https://@logitApiEndpoint/v2 -d @sample.json
