Apitally SDK for Python

Apitally is a simple API monitoring and analytics tool that makes it easy to understand API usage, monitor performance, and troubleshoot issues.
Get started in minutes by just adding a few lines of code. No infrastructure changes required, no dashboards to build.

Learn more about Apitally on our 🌎 website or check out
the 📚 documentation.

Key features

API analytics

Track traffic, error and performance metrics for your API, each endpoint and
individual API consumers, allowing you to make informed, data-driven engineering
and product decisions.

Request logs

Drill down from insights to individual API requests or use powerful search and filters to
find specific requests. View correlated application logs and traces for a complete picture
of each request, making troubleshooting faster and easier.

Error tracking

Understand which validation rules in your endpoints cause client errors. Capture
error details and stack traces for 500 error responses, and have them linked to
Sentry issues automatically.

API monitoring & alerts

Get notified immediately if something isn't right using custom alerts, synthetic
uptime checks and heartbeat monitoring. Alert notifications can be delivered via
email, Slack and Microsoft Teams.

bash
pip install "apitally[fastapi]"

Then add the Apitally middleware to your application:

python
from fastapi import FastAPI
from apitally.fastapi import ApitallyMiddleware

app = FastAPI()
app.add_middleware(
    ApitallyMiddleware,
    client_id="your-client-id",
    env="dev",  # or "prod" etc.
)

For further instructions, see our
setup guide for FastAPI.

Django

bash
pip install "apitally[django_rest_framework]"
# or
pip install "apitally[django_ninja]"

Then add the Apitally middleware to your Django settings:

python
MIDDLEWARE = [
