Honeycomb Markers API

The Honeycomb Markers API enables developers to create and manage markers that indicate points in time on graphs where notable events occurred, such as deploys, configuration changes, or outages. Marker Settings allow grouping similar markers together with consistent visual styling. The API supports listing, creating, updating, and deleting both markers and marker settings, making it straightforward to integrate deployment pipelines and incident workflows with Honeycomb visualizations.

Honeycomb Markers API is one of 22 APIs that Honeycomb publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.

Tagged areas include Annotations, Deployment, Markers, and Observability. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation and an OpenAPI specification.

This API exposes 4 operations across 2 paths, and defines 3 schemas. It is described by OpenAPI 3.2.0, at version 1.0.

Requests are made against a single base URL, https://api.honeycomb.io.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Honeycomb Markers API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
