Review API logs

The API logs tool enables you to take a granular view of your API requests. The API logs tool displays recent API requests by status code, method, request path, private API key (truncated for security), and date.

📘

Data retention

The API logs tool retains 14 days worth of API logs. API logs past this date will be unavailable, although the high-level aggregate information will continue to be stored in the API activity dashboard.

Filter criteria

The API logs can be filtered by endpoint request path, status code, method, and source, including public API key, private API key, or OAuth app. In the additional filter selector, filter by time period, a specified job, trace, or error ID, and API revision.

If no available data matches the given criteria, the dashboard will display No requests available. To reset your filter criteria to the default values, click Clear.

Search endpoint request path

Locate requests made to specific endpoints by pasting in the exact URL path of the endpoint, part of a URL path, or wildcard an ID using brackets, such as {id}.

Valid search examples:

  • /api/events - Returns all calls hitting that exact URL path
  • /api/events/{id} - Returns all calls hitting that URL path, with ID as a wildcard search
  • /api/events/4Gxu5nDJ2qp - Returns all calls hitting that URL path for the exact given ID
  • event-bulk-create - Returns /client/event-bulk-create
  • events - Returns all paths that include events in the URL path, such as /client/events, /client/event-bulk-create, /api/events, etc.

Status code

Results can be filtered by the status of your API calls. For more information about what each code indicates and how to resolve errors, refer to the status codes and errors guide.

  • All success codes
    • 200 - OK
    • 201 - Created
    • 202 - Accepted
    • 204 - No content
  • All failed codes
  • All 4xx codes

Method

Filter your results by the HTTP method used to make the request.

  • GET
  • POST
  • PUT
  • PATCH

API revision

Search for requests made using a specific API revision. The current Stable and Beta revisions are marked with a label indicating the latest releases.

Search by identifiers

Use advanced filters to search by ID. Search results will display all API calls that contain those identifiers in the API path, request, or response body. To filter by an identifier, that ID must be found in the path, request, or response body to appear in the search results.

Search by identifier is supported for POST, PATCH, and DELETE requests, unless otherwise noted.

Supported identifiers include:

  • Call ID - the ID assigned to an API call by Klaviyo
  • Error ID - the ID assigned to an API call error
  • Async job ID - the ID assigned to an asynchronous API request
  • Resource ID - the ID of a resource, such as a profile, list, segment, campaign, catalog item, etc. Resource ID is supported for relationships for POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE requests
  • Email - the email address associated with a profile
  • Phone number - the phone number associated with a profile
  • External ID - the external_id as stored in an integration such as Shopify or Magento
  • Anonymous ID - the anonymous _kx value
  • Private key - The private key used to authenticate an API request
  • Catalog item ID, variant ID, or category ID - the identifiers used by custom catalogs
  • Coupon ID - the external_id used by a coupon, as stored in an integration such as Shopify or Magento
  • Metric name - the name associated with a Klaviyo, custom, or third-party metric

Details

The details window provides additional information about your API call.

  • Method - HTTP method used to make the request
  • Private API key - the API key used to send the request, truncated for account security

  • Date - date and timestamp recorded by Klaviyo for the request

Request

The Request tab displays the request body of your API call, including query parameters, header, and body in JSON format. Quickly copy a portion of the call using the Copy button in the upper-left corner of each section

Response

The Response tab displays the response body of your request including the header in JSON format.

The details window is shown twice, once showing the request body and once showing the response body.

Job details

Job details for asynchronous API requests allows you to track the progress of your tasks. The job details tab differs by which endpoints you use. The table below outlines the information you can expect to find in the job details tab by supported endpoints.

Endpoints Job detailsExample

The job progress is displayed as a percentage, alongside the total number of tasks.

The job progress bar displays the number of completed jobs in blue, the number of pending jobs in green, and the number of errored jobs in yellow.

Below the progress bar, the expiration date for all tasks associated with the job is displayed. Any tasks stuck in a pending or errored state at that date are considered expired.

Expired jobs will show a “data not available” message instead of the progress bar.
