This article covers how to get started with the AS Group 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.

  • AS Groups are supported in the Kentik portal via the Settings » AS Groups page. For more information, see AS Groups.

  • Protobuf specifications for Kentik’s v6 APIs are available in our api-schema-public repository.

AS Group Usage

The AS Group API provides programmatic access to the configuration of AS Groups, allowing the traffic of a set of ASes to be summed so it can be evaluated together for the purpose of filtering and top-X grouping in queries.

AS Group 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.
