  title: Formo Public Alerts API
  description: 'REST API for managing Formo projects, analytics, alerts, boards, charts, contracts, segments, and AI chat.


    **Auth.** Every endpoint on `api.formo.so` requires a workspace API key with the appropriate scopes (see `x-api-scopes`). The one exception is `POST /v0/raw_events`, which runs on `events.formo.so` and authenticates with the project SDK write key instead.


    **Response shape.** Successful responses return the resource directly (or `{ data: [...], total, page, size, has_more }` for paginated lists). HTTP status carries success/failure; there is no envelope wrapping success bodies.


    **Errors.** Non-2xx responses from `api.formo.so` use the `Error` envelope, with two exceptions: some rate-limit rejections reply in plain text, and `POST /v0/raw_events` returns a plain `{ "error": "..." }` object. Treat the HTTP status as authoritative and parse defensively: `{ error: { code, message, doc_url, param?, details? } }`. Branch on the machine-readable `code` (see `ErrorCode` enum) and follow `doc_url` to the matching section of the errors reference.


    **Idempotency.** Pass an `Idempotency-Key` header on write requests to alerts, boards, charts, contracts, segments, and import to make retries safe; the response is cached for 24 h and replayed on duplicate keys. Profile writes and `POST /v0/query` do not support it.'
