This article covers how to get started with the Connectivity Cost APIs.
Notes:
The API Tester in the v4 Portal enables you to securely call the methods of these APIs using your organization's Kentik data.
For information about connectivity costs, start with Connectivity Costs.
Protobuf and OpenAPI specifications for Kentik’s v6 APIs are available in our api-schema-public repository.
Connectivity Cost Usage
The Connectivity Cost Configuration API provides programmatic access to configuration of Connectivity Costs.
Connectivity Cost RPCs
The tables below provide a quick reference to key information about each Remote Procedure Call in these APIs. Use the links in the tables to see schemas for the request and/or response body (if any).
Note: To test methods using your own Kentik data, use the portal's API Tester.
