Monitor REST API usage

The REST API User Activity timeframe setting provides improved visibility into how REST API is used across the organization for monitoring, security, and operational efficiency. When an organization admin adjusts this setting, they can view the client ID and the number of REST API calls made over a defined timeframe.

Important considerations
  • If you don't see a Client ID, it's because the user is being authorized with basic auth instead of OAuth or the user has accessed the REST API via Swagger.

To view REST API user activity:

  1. From Admin > Organization, select REST API.

  2. Select User Activity, then select a timeframe:

    • Last 1 hour

    • Last 24 hours

    • Last 7 days

    • Last 30 days

    • Last 90 days

    Note

    The default timeframe is the last hour. You can select and apply other timeframes, but these changes are not saved once you leave the page.

  3. Select Apply.

When the screen is refreshed, it lists the user by Name, Username, Client ID, and the number of REST API calls depending on the duration you selected.
