incidentio-cli
Invoke the `incidentio` CLI to drive the incident.io API — incidents, actions, follow-ups, alerts/alert sources/routes, escalations & on-call schedules, catalog (types/entries/resources), custom fields, severities, incident types/roles/statuses/timestamps, status pages (including creating and managing public pages, components, layout, subscribers, templates), workflows, users, teams, API keys, heartbeats, maintenance windows, and settings. Uses the public Bearer API (OpenAPI-generated commands) plus internal dashboard (cookie) commands generated from captured HARs, hand-curated internal endpoints, and a `raw` escape hatch for any un-codified path. Use whenever a task needs incident.io data or actions, such as "list our incidents", "create an incident", "show the on-call schedule", "build or manage a status page", "list status page subscribers", "tune a dashboard setting", or "hit an internal dashboard endpoint".

incident.io CLI
Invoke the incidentio binary. Source of truth: paymog/incidentio-cli.
Unlike blacksmith's cookie-replay, incident.io has a real public API keyed by Bearer
tokens. incidentio speaks it directly — no browser, no cookies. Commands are
generated from incident.io's official OpenAPI specs (one per resource tag), so every
documented endpoint is available. The API base is https://api.incident.io.
Auth (required before any command)
A Bearer API key. Create one at Settings → API keys (app.incident.io/settings/api-keys);
when creating it you choose its scopes (e.g. incidents.create), and the scope set is fixed
after creation.
incidentio auth set <api-key> # store it (chmod 600, ~/.config/incidentio/creds.json)
incidentio auth status # show masked key + last-updated
incidentio auth logout # clear stored credentials
Resolution order: --api-key <key> flag → $INCIDENT_API_KEY → stored credential. For a
one-off or CI, export INCIDENT_API_KEY and skip auth set.
A 401/403 means the key is invalid, revoked, or lacks the scope the endpoint needs
(e.g. calling incidents create with a read-only key). Re-check the key's scopes in the
dashboard.
Usage
incidentio list [filter] # every command (optionally filtered by substring)
incidentio list incidents # all verbs for the `incidents` resource
incidentio <resource> <verb> [flags]
Commands are two tokens: <resource> <verb>. Output is pretty-printed JSON — pipe to
jq, or pass --raw for the unformatted response.
Flags
| Flag | Meaning |
|---|---|
--api-key <key> |
API key for this call (else $INCIDENT_API_KEY or stored) |
--<param> <value> |
path params: --id, --user-id, --schedule-id, --alert-source-config-id |
--query key=value |
query param, repeatable (incl. bracket filters — see below) |
--body-file <path> |
JSON request body from file (for POST/PUT) |
--body-json '<json>' |
inline JSON request body |
--set a.b=value |
set a body field, repeatable |
--raw |
print the raw response, no JSON formatting |
--auth cookie|bearer |
(raw only) force the auth mode; otherwise inferred from the path |
Bracket query filters
List endpoints use bracket keys (Rails-style). Pass them verbatim to --query; repeat for
multi-value filters. incident.io's list filters are powerful but the documented param names
appear in incidentio list <resource> output.
# incidents in the "live" status category, severity rank >= a given severity
incidentio incidents list --query 'status_category[one_of]=live' --query 'severity[gte]=<sev-id>'
# created within a date range (tilde-separated)
incidentio incidents list --query 'created_at[date_range]=2026-06-01~2026-06-30'
# any-of multiple modes
incidentio incidents list --query 'mode[one_of]=standard' --query 'mode[one_of]=retrospective'
Dates are ISO-8601 UTC (2026-06-04T00:00:00.000Z). For "now" compute it:
date -u +%FT%T.000Z (macOS) or date -u -d '30 days ago' +%FT%T.000Z (GNU).

Notes: creating/branding a page and defining its components/layout is internal-only (cookie
session); the public Bearer API only lists/shows and publishes incidents/maintenance. Public-page
components are page-native objects (create them, then place them with status-page-structures),
not a custom field (that model is for internal pages). theme is light|dark. Team plan allows
one public page (a second create returns 422 exceeded your allowance). Logo/favicon/brand
color are uploads done in the dashboard.
For catalog-backed parent pages: split_by_catalog_type_id and split_by_component_attribute_id
identify which catalog type backs the sub-pages and which attribute on that type points to
components; each sub_pages entry maps a catalog entry to a sub-page slug.

Dashboard / internal API (🍪 — needs a browser session)
These hit app.incident.io/api/*, which rejects API keys ("Cannot use API keys to
authenticate to internal APIs"). They replay a logged-in browser session. Import one first:
# devtools → Network → right-click any /api/ request → Copy as cURL
incidentio auth import '<paste curl>' # or: pbpaste | incidentio auth import
incidentio auth set-org 01G9XY4BZ7YGBPJ3K50NB30YXS # x-incident-organisation-id (auto-captured from the curl if present)
Then commands marked 🍪 in list work. Highlights — things the public API can't do:
incidentio saved-views --query context=incidents # saved filter views
incidentio insights trends --query start_date=2026-06-01 --query end_date=2026-06-30

A 401 "No authorization material" on a 🍪 command means the session cookie isn't being
recognized (wrong/expired) — re-import a fresh Copy-as-cURL. Org id resolves --org →
$INCIDENT_ORG_ID → stored.
Raw requests & reverse-engineering new endpoints
Not every endpoint is codified. incidentio raw <METHOD> </path> hits any endpoint with your
stored creds — the fast path for probing and reverse-engineering internal routes:
incidentio raw GET /api/status_pages # cookie inferred (/api/*)
incidentio raw GET /v2/incidents --query page_size=1 # bearer inferred (else)
incidentio raw POST /api/status_pages --body-json '{}' # probe: 422 names required fields
incidentio raw PUT /api/settings/self --body-json '{...}' # tune a setting
incidentio raw DELETE /api/status_pages/<id> --auth cookie
Auth is inferred (/api/* → cookie, otherwise bearer); override with --auth cookie|bearer.
Inline any IDs directly in the path (raw does no :param substitution).
Codify a new endpoint (recipe):
- Probe with an empty/partial body:
incidentio raw POST /api/<thing> --body-json '{}'. - Read the
422 validation_error— thesource.field/ message names the required fields; retry
with an intentionally invalid enum value to learn allowed values. - Add a
Commandtosrc/commands/manual-internal.ts(it's merged at load time and survives HAR
regeneration), thenbun run build.
Recipes
Validate your API key

AFTER=$(jq -r '.pagination_meta.after // empty' first.json)
[ -n "$AFTER" ] && incidentio incidents list --query page_size=250 --query "after=$AFTER" > second.json
Declare an incident
incidentio incidents create --body-json '{

Derive Affected Components from alert Service via catalog navigation expression (🍪)
A navigation expression lets an alert route auto-populate a catalog-backed custom field by
navigating from an alert attribute (e.g. Service) through a catalog relationship (e.g. Components).
# 1. Find the IDs you need:
# - service-alert-attr-id: the alert source attribute ID for the Service field
# - component-type-id: catalog type ID for Components (incidentio catalog-types list)
# - affected-components-field-id: the incident custom field ID (incidentio custom-fields list)
VERSION=$(incidentio alert-routes show-route --id <route-id> | jq '.version')
# 2. PUT the route with an expression + expression-reference binding.
# Same rules: version+1, omit users from escalation_targets.
incidentio alert-routes update-route-expr --id <route-id> --body-json '{
"version":'$((VERSION+1))',

# After a successful PUT the API echoes the expressions array back intact.
Notes:
root_referencepoints at the alert source attribute that holds a Service catalog entry.operations[0].navigate.referenceis the catalog attribute name on the Service type that
holds its component entries (verify viaincidentio catalog-types show --id <service-type-id>).- The expression
referencevalue becomes the key inexpressions["<reference>"]binding. - The Affected Components custom field must be a catalog-backed

Regenerate the command catalog
Commands live in src/commands/generated.ts, generated from incident.io's per-tag OpenAPI
specs (fetched live from docs.incident.io):
bun run codegen
The generator discovers the REST tag set from docs.incident.io/llms.txt, fetches each
/openapi/tags/<tag>.json, derives a <resource> <verb> name per operation, and resolves
collisions (e.g. catalog-types update-type vs update-type-schema; heartbeat ping vs
ping-post). After regenerating, rebuild (bun run build).
Dashboard/internal commands are generated from captured browser HAR(s) via bun run codegen:har <a.har> [b.har ...]. It harvests GET and write endpoints (POST→create, PUT/PATCH→update,
DELETE→delete), templates ULID/Slack IDs to :param, drops anything the public Bearer API already
covers, and overwrites generated-internal.ts — so pass every HAR you want represented in a
single invocation (e.g. app.incident.io.har app.incident.io2.har app.incident.io3.har). Hand-verified
internal endpoints that appear in no HAR (e.g. status-page create/update/components/structures) live in
src/commands/manual-internal.ts and are merged at load time, so they survive regeneration.
Common issues
not authenticated
No key found via flag, env, or store. Run incidentio auth set <key> or export INCIDENT_API_KEY=<key>.
HTTP 401 / HTTP 403 (public/Bearer commands)
The key is invalid/expired, or lacks the scope the endpoint requires (e.g. a read-only key
calling a write verb). Check the key's scopes in Settings → API keys; scopes are fixed
at creation — rotate or create a new key if you need more.
needs a browser session / 401 "No authorization material" (🍪 dashboard commands)
Dashboard commands (app.incident.io/api/*) reject API keys. They need a logged-in browser
session: re-import via incidentio auth import <curl> (Copy-as-cURL from app.incident.io),
and ensure the org id is set (auth set-org or --org). HARs from Chrome/Brave usually
strip cookies — use Copy-as-cURL.
HTTP 422 with a validation message
The body/query is the wrong shape (missing required field, bad enum, wrong type). The error
body names the offending source.field — fix the --body-json/--query/--set value.
HTTP 429
Rate limit (default 1200 req/min/key). The error body includes rate_limit.retry_after.
Back off and retry; don't hammer.
unknown command
Commands are <resource> <verb>. Run incidentio list <resource> to see the exact verbs.
If you typed just the resource, the CLI suggests its verbs. CRUD verbs are collapsed
(incidents list/create/show/update/delete); non-CRUD actions keep their name
(incidents edit, escalations cancel-escalation, catalog-entries bulk-update-entries).
Missing endpoint
The endpoint isn't in the generated catalog. Re-run bun run codegen to pick up newly
published incident.io endpoints, then rebuild.
