Honeycomb Triggers API is one of 22 APIs that [honeycomb](https://apis.io/providers/honeycomb/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification and an AsyncAPI event-driven specification. Tagged areas include Alerts, Monitoring, Notification, and Observability. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation, an OpenAPI specification, and an AsyncAPI specification.

The Honeycomb Triggers API allows developers to programmatically configure alerting rules that fire when query results meet specified conditions. Triggers work in conjunction with the Recipients API, which manages notification destinations including PagerDuty, Email, Webhook, Microsoft Teams, and Slack. The API supports listing, creating, updating, and deleting triggers, enabling automated setup of alerting workflows for production observability.
