Documentation Grafana documentation Developers HTTP API Team HTTP API

Team API

This API can be used to manage Teams and Team Memberships.

Access to these API endpoints is restricted as follows:

• All authenticated users are able to view details of teams they are a member of.
• Organization Admins are able to manage all teams and team members.
• If you enable editors_can_admin configuration flag, then Organization Editors can create teams and manage teams where they are Admin.
  • If you enable editors_can_admin configuration flag, Editors can find out whether a team that they are not members of exists by trying to create a team with the same name.

If you are running Grafana Enterprise, for some endpoints you’ll need to have specific permissions. Refer to Role-based access control permissions for more information.

  "page": 1,

Using the query parameter

Default value for the perpage parameter is 1000 and for the page parameter is 1.

The totalCount field in the response can be used for pagination of the teams list E.g. if totalCount is equal to 100 teams and the perpage parameter is set to 10 then there are 10 pages of teams.

The query parameter is optional and it will return results where the query value is contained in the name field. Query values with spaces need to be URL encoded e.g. query=my%20team.

The sort param is an optional comma separated list of options to order the search result. Accepted values for the sort filter are: name-asc, name-desc, email-asc, email-desc, memberCount-asc, memberCount-desc. By default, if sort is not specified, the teams list will be ordered by name in ascending order.

Using the name parameter

The name parameter returns a single team if the parameter matches the name field.
