# Algolia Monitoring API

> The Monitoring API lets you check the status of your Algolia infrastructure

The metrics exposed by this API are based on results from external monitoring probes checking Algolia’s infrastructure.
These metrics **reflect the overall infrastructure status and don’t represent the performance of the specific APPID** used for authentication.

## Base URLs

Base URL for the Monitoring API:

* `https://status.algolia.com`

**All requests must use HTTPS.**

## Availability and authentication

Access to the Infrastructure endpoints
is available as part of the [Premium or Elevate plans](https://www.algolia.com/pricing).

To authenticate requests to the Infrastructure endpoints, add these headers:

* `x-algolia-application-id`. Your Algolia application ID.
* `x-algolia-api-key`. Your Monitoring API key.

You can find your application ID and API key in the [Algolia dashboard](https://dashboard.algolia.com/account/api-keys).

Other endpoints don't require authentication.

## Response status and errors

The Monitoring API returns JSON responses.
Since JSON doesn't guarantee any specific ordering, don't rely on the order of attributes in the API response.

Successful responses return `2xx` statuses. Client errors return `4xx` statuses. Server errors return `5xx` statuses.
Error responses have a `message` property with more information.

## Version

The current version of the Monitoring API is version 1, indicated by the `/1/` in each endpoint's URL.
