Semaphore API

This document describes all the resources that make up Semaphore API version v1alpha. If you have any problems or requests please contact support.

The root of the API can be found here: https://<org_name>.semaphoreci.com/api/v1alpha.

Overview

Every API request and response must satisfy the following constraints:

All requests must use HTTPS.
All data is sent and received as JSON.
Blank fields are included as null instead of being omitted.
Timestamps are in different formats due to the historical circumstances of how these public APIs appeared. In the next release of the API, they will be standardized. Currently, there are the following formats:
- Unixtime Epoch time: "create_time": "1571083003"
- Unixtime Epoch time with nanoseconds: "created_at": {"seconds": 1571063401, "nanos": 559492000}
- Custom format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.ffffffZ, e.g.,"2019-10-14 12:11:47.824128Z"
- All API requests must set the User-Agent to SemaphoreCI v2.0 Client.

Authentication

All API requests require authentication. To authenticate, you need an API Token. You can find your token by visiting your account settings.

Your API Token must be sent as an HTTP header in all requests, as shown below:

curl -H "Authorization: Token {api_token}" "https://<org_name>.semaphoreci.com/api/v1alpha/{resource_name}"

Errors

You can receive several errors as a response to an API request

Error Message	Meaning
`HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized`	Failure to authenticate
`HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found`	Resource doesn't exist or is not visible to user

Pagination

Every request that that returns more than 30 items will be paginated. To avoid this, you should form calls with link header values instead of constructing your own URLs.

A link header includes information about pagination, as shown below:

link: <http://<org_name>.semaphoreci.com/api/v1alpha/?PAGE_PARAMS>; rel="first",
      <http://<org_name>.semaphoreci.com/api/orgs?PAGE_PARAMS>; rel="next"

The possible rel values are:

next - The link for the next page of results.
prev - The link for the previous page of results.
first - The link for the first page of results.

Stability

There are two types of changes:

Compatible and emergency changes may be made with no advanced notice
Disruptive changes will not occur without advanced notice. In the event that a disruptive change is needed, a new major version will be developed
Emergency changes happen without notice. We will, however, try to notify users as best as possible

Compatible changes

Small in scope and unlikely to break or change semantics of existing methods.

Adding nested resources, methods, and attributes.
Change of documentation.
Change of undocumented behavior.

Disruptive changes

May have a larger impact and effort will be made to provide migration paths as needed.

Changing semantics of existing methods.
Removing resources, methods, and attributes.

Emergency change

May have larger impact, but is unavoidable due to legal compliance, security vulnerabilities, or violation of specification.

Tasks

Tasks can be triggered via the API.

To trigger a task with its default parameters:

curl -X POST --location "https://<org_name>.semaphoreci.com/api/v1alpha/tasks/{task_id}/run_now" \
    -H "Authorization: Token {api_token}" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json"

You can pass any of the following options when you trigger the task:

branch: (string) specify the branch where the task runs
pipeline_file: (string) specify the pipeline file to execute
parameters: (key-values) specify parameters values for parameterized promotions

The following example uses all these options:

curl -X POST --location "https://<org_name>.semaphoreci.com/api/v1alpha/tasks/{task_id}/run_now" \
    -H "Authorization: Token {api_token}" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d $'{
    "branch": "master",
    "pipeline_file": ".semaphore/semaphore.yml",

Artifact retention policies

Configure retention policy

This API endpoint allows you to configure the artifact retention policy for a project with the given UUID.

By default, artifacts are persisted and never automatically deleted. The artifact retention policy allows you to configure the lifetime of artifacts in your projects.

POST <org_name>.semaphoreci.com/api/v1alpha/artifacts_retention_policies

Request Body:

The request body should be a JSON object, encapsulating details about the artifact retention policies to be configured. The available fields are as follows:

project_id (required) - UUID of the project.
project_level_retention_policies (optional) - List of retention rules for project-level artifacts.
workflow_level_retention_policies (optional) - List of retention rules for workflow-level artifacts.
job_level_retention_policies (optional) - List of retention rules for job-level artifacts.

At least one of the project_level_retention_policies, workflow_level_retention_policies, and job_level_retention_policies lists needs to contain valid list items for a request to be valid.

The list items for each of the retention policy fields from above should be JSON objects with the following properties:

selector (required) - a double-star glob pattern used for identifying the artifacts paths.
age (required) - the time after which the artifacts on the path from the selector field should be automatically deleted. Values should consist of a number from 1 to 12 followed by a space and one of the following: week(s), month(s), or year(s). Examples: 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 months, 4 years.

When evaluating retention policies for an artifact on a particular path, the system will iterate through the list of the policy rules and apply the first one with a selector that matches the path of that artifact.

You can find more details about artifacts retention policy in the Artifact Retention Policies Reference.

Response:

HTTP status: 200

Describe retention policy

This API endpoint retrieves the details about an artifacts retention policy that is configured for a project with the given UUID.

By default, projects do not have an artifacts retention policy configured so a response in this case will have a policy with an empty set of retention rules for all artifacts levels.

GET <org_name>.semaphoreci.com/api/v1alpha/artifacts_retention_policies/:project_id

Parameters:

project_id (required) - The UUID of the project

Response:

HTTP status: 200

{
  "workflow_level_retention_policies": [],
  "project_level_retention_policies": [
    {
      "selector": "/**/*",
      "age": "1 year"
    }
  ],
  "job_level_retention_policies":[
    {
      "selector": "/screenshots/**/*.png",
      "age": "2 weeks"
    },
    {
      "selector": "/logs/**/*.txt",
      "age": "3 months"
    }
  ]
}

curl -i -H "Authorization: Token {api_token}" \
