Agents

Get an agent

Returns the agent for the authenticated project, with its status rolled up live. 404 if not found (or belongs to another project) — there is no existence oracle.

  • URL: https://app.lastping.dev/api/v1/agents/{id}
  • Auth: API key in header X-Api-Key

Response

The agent.

idstring uuid required

Unique agent identifier.

slugstring required

Stable project-scoped identifier, derived from name at creation and immutable thereafter.

namestring required

Human-readable name.

descriptionstring required

Free-text description (empty string if not set).

status'down' | 'blocked' | 'late' | 'running' | 'up' | 'pending' | 'idle' required

Rolled up live from the monitors this agent owns, worst status first: down > blocked > late > running > up > pending > idle. Paused and in-maintenance monitors never contribute: muting a monitor must neither hide a broken agent nor drag a healthy one down.

  • down — at least one owned, active monitor is down.
  • blocked — no active monitor is down, but at least one owned monitor has a run that is blocked on a human right now. This is an alert-class state, not merely informational: it is excluded from the informational alert rate limit precisely so it cannot be starved by high-volume traffic.
  • late — no active monitor is down or blocked, but at least one is late.
  • running — no active monitor is down, blocked or late, but at least one owned monitor has a run currently in flight.
  • up — no active monitor is down, blocked, late or running, and at least one is up.
  • pending — the agent owns at least one monitor, but none of its active monitors has ever reported (only ever seen new). This usually means the wiring is wrong — the agent registered but never pinged.
  • idle — the agent owns no monitors, or every monitor it owns is paused or in maintenance. There is nothing to judge yet.
monitor_countinteger required

Number of monitors this agent owns. 0 for an agent with no monitors.

last_seenstring date-time nullable

RFC 3339 timestamp: the latest ping or traced span across ALL monitors this agent owns, including paused and in-maintenance ones — this answers "when did I last hear from this agent at all", not "is it healthy". A span counts from the end time it reports, recorded at most once a minute per monitor. Null or omitted for an agent that has never received a ping or a span on any of its monitors.

created_atstring date-time required

RFC 3339 UTC timestamp when the agent was created.
