GET /alerts/stats
Bearer auth

Returns aggregate statistics over alert_history for the caller's scope: total, severity buckets, top-N alertname and system_key by count, plus MTTR (mean time to resolve) and MTBF (mean time between failures, approximated).

Scope follows the same three modes as /alerts/totals:

  • organization_id omitted → caller's full hierarchy.
  • organization_id=X → single tenant.
  • organization_id=X&include=descendants → sub-tree drill-down.

MTBF formula:

  • When both from_date and to_date are provided: (to - from) / total.
  • Otherwise: (max(starts_at) - min(starts_at)) / (total - 1).
  • Omitted from the response when the result is undefined.

Query parameters

  • organization_id string
  • include string

    Value is descendants.

  • from_date string(date-time)

    Lower bound on created_at (inclusive). RFC3339 timestamp.

  • to_date string(date-time)

    Upper bound on created_at (exclusive). RFC3339 timestamp.

  • top integer

    Cap for top-N alertname / system_key buckets. Default 10, max 50.

    Minimum value is 1, maximum value is 50. Default value is 10.
