--- title: "Query History HTTP API | Grafana documentation" description: "Grafana Query History HTTP API" --- # Query history API > Note > > Starting in Grafana 13, `/api` endpoints are being deprecated in favor of the `/apis` route. **This change doesn’t disrupt or break your current setup**. Legacy APIs are not being disabled and remain fully accessible and operative, but `/api` routes will no longer be updated. > > **This API will not be migrated**. Refer to [API deprecation notes](/docs/grafana/next/developer-resources/api-reference/http-api/apis-migration/#deprecation-notes) for more details and alternatives. This API can be used to add queries to Query history. It requires that the user is logged in and that Query history feature is enabled in config file. ## Add query to Query history `POST /api/query-history` Adds query to query history. **Example request:** http ![Copy code to clipboard](/media/images/icons/icon-copy-small-2.svg) Copy ```http POST /api/query-history HTTP/1.1 Accept: application/json Content-Type: application/json Authorization: Bearer eyJrIjoiT0tTcG1pUlY2RnVKZTFVaDFsNFZXdE9ZWmNrMkZYbk { "datasourceUid": "PE1C5CBDA0504A6A3", "queries": [ { "refId": "A", "key": "Q-87fed8e3-62ba-4eb2-8d2a-4129979bb4de-0", "scenarioId": "csv_content", "datasource": { "type": "testdata", "uid": "PD8C576611E62080A" } } ] } ``` JSON body schema: - **datasourceUid** – Data source uid. - **queries** – JSON of query or queries. **Example response:** http ![Copy code to clipboard](/media/images/icons/icon-copy-small-2.svg) Copy ```http HTTP/1.1 200 Content-Type: application/json { "result": { "uid": "Ahg678z", "datasourceUid": "PE1C5CBDA0504A6A3", "createdBy": 1, "createdAt": 1643630762, "starred": false, "comment": "", "queries": [ { "refId": "A", "key": "Q-87fed8e3-62ba-4eb2-8d2a-4129979bb4de-0", "scenarioId": "csv_content", "datasource": { "type": "testdata", "uid": "PD8C576611E62080A" } } ] } } ``` Status codes: - **200** – OK - **400** - Errors (invalid JSON, missing or invalid fields) - **401** – Unauthorized - **500** – Internal error ## Query history search `GET /api/query-history` Returns a list of queries in the query history that matches the search criteria. Query history search supports pagination. Use the `limit` parameter to control the maximum number of queries returned; the default limit is 100. You can also use the `page` query parameter to fetch queries from any page other than the first one. Query parameters: - **datasourceUid** - Filter the query history for the selected data source. To perform an “AND” filtering with multiple data sources, specify the data source parameter using the following format: `datasourceUid=uid1&datasourceUid=uid2`. - **searchString** – Filter the query history based on the content. - **sort** - Specify the sorting order. Sorting can be `time-asc` or `time-desc`. The default is `time-desc`. - **onlyStarred** - Search for queries that are starred. Defaults to `false`. - **page** - Search supports pagination. Specify which page number to return. Use the limit parameter to specify the number of queries per page. - **limit** - Limits the number of returned query history items per page. The default is 100 queries per page. - **from/to** - Specifies time range for the query history search. The time can be either epoch timestamps in milliseconds or relative using Grafana time units. For example, now-5m. **Example request for query history search**: http ![Copy code to clipboard](/media/images/icons/icon-copy-small-2.svg) Copy ```http GET /api/query-history?datasourceUid="PE1C5CBDA0504A6A3"&datasourceUid="FG1C1CBDA0504A6EL"&searchString="ALERTS"&sort="time-asc" HTTP/1.1 Accept: application/json Content-Type: application/json Authorization: Bearer eyJrIjoiT0tTcG1pUlY2RnVKZTFVaDFsNFZXdE9ZWmNrMkZYbk ``` **Example response for query history search**: http ![Copy code to clipboard](/media/images/icons/icon-copy-small-2.svg) Copy ```http HTTP/1.1 200 Content-Type: application/json { "result": { "totalCount": 150, "page": 1, "perPage": 100 "queryHistory":[{ "uid": "Ahg678z", "datasourceUid": "PE1C5CBDA0504A6A3", "createdBy": 1, "createdAt": 1643630762, "starred": false, "comment": "", "queries": [ { "refId": "A", "key": "Q-87fed8e3-62ba-4eb2-8d2a-4129979bb4de-0", "scenarioId": "csv_content", "datasource": { "type": "testdata", "uid": "PE1C5CBDA0504A6A3" } } ] }] } ``` Status codes: - **200** – OK - **401** – Unauthorized - **500** – Internal error ## Delete query from Query history by UID `DELETE /api/query-history/:uid` Deletes the query in query history that matches the specified uid.
