SignalFx REST API

The SignalFx REST API manages metadata and configuration objects in Splunk Observability Cloud / SignalFx: metrics and dimension metadata, detectors and alert muting rules, charts, dashboards and dashboard groups, teams, data links, SLOs, organization and access tokens, metric rulesets, and cloud/notification integrations (AWS, Azure, GCP, PagerDuty, Slack, Opsgenie, Jira, ServiceNow). It is realm-based (api.{realm}.signalfx.com) and authenticated with the X-SF-Token header.

  note: 'Renamed from MCPServer 2026-09-03 (roadmap#247): the manifest self-describes as status: candidate
    — a tool list derived from the published API contracts, not an existing server. The scorer already
    read the manifest and reported mcp_server correctly; the MCPServer type was crediting the artifact-type
    surfaces with a server that does not exist.'
