Health incidents

Page the retained feed-health episode ledger newest first. These records describe source freshness incidents, never route state, destination access, or driving safety.

Parameters

Path and query parameters are documented together so the request surface stays easy to scan.

cursor

Query Optional

string

Opaque cursor returned by the preceding page.

limit

Query Optional

integer (1–50)

Episodes per page. Defaults to 10.

Name	Location	Required	Type	Description
cursor	Query	No	string	Opaque cursor returned by the preceding page.
limit	Query	No	integer (1–50)	Episodes per page. Defaults to 10.

Example request

Use the same endpoint across all three snippets. The tabs switch only the client syntax.

cURL

curl -sS "https://api.mountainswitch.co/v1/health/incidents?limit=10" \
  -H "Accept: application/json"

TypeScript

const response = await fetch(
  "https://api.mountainswitch.co/v1/health/incidents?limit=10",
  { headers: { Accept: "application/json" } },
);

const payload = await response.json();

Python

import requests

response = requests.get(
    "https://api.mountainswitch.co/v1/health/incidents",
    params={"limit": 10},
    headers={"Accept": "application/json"},
)

payload = response.json()

Example response

The example response shows the documented JSON envelope with endpoint data in data and request metadata in _meta.

200 OK application/json

Response fields

This reference stays flat on purpose so the documented fields remain easy to scan.

data: Array<object>; Retained feed-health episodes in newest-first order.
data[].started_at: string; Original start of the merged episode window.
data[].resolved_at: string | null; End of the episode window, or null while it remains open.
data[].class: "feed_outage" | "data_quality" | "delayed" | "degraded"; Worst public incident class observed during the episode.
data[].affected_regions: Array<string>; Union of affected homepage region identifiers observed during the episode.
data[].public_summary: string; Fixed public summary selected from the closed incident-class vocabulary.
_meta.pagination: object | null; Opaque next cursor and has_more flag; null only for an empty result.

Errors

These rows keep the repo-wide rate-limit and infrastructure behavior visible without inventing endpoint-specific transport semantics.

Status	Code	When it happens
400	INVALID_PARAMETER	limit or cursor is malformed, unsupported, or no longer identifies a retained episode.

Notes

These notes capture the contract edges that matter most for consumers of the endpoint.

Brief normal gaps may remain inside one episode

A resolved incident that reopens within 20 minutes remains one episode. Its original start is preserved, class and regions accumulate, and intermediate close/reopen timestamps are not retained.

Incident pages are always no-store

GET /v1/health/incidents reads the live retained ring and always returns Cache-Control: no-store.
