Cloud API
The NetBox Cloud API provides programmatic access to platform operations using API keys. You can use it to automate tasks like triggering backups or monitoring restore jobs from your own tooling or pipelines.
This is not the same as the NetBox REST API, which is used to query and manage data inside a NetBox instance. The Cloud API allows you to manage your NetBox Cloud administrative function -- things like backups and restores -- from outside the instance.
The base URL for all requests is:
https://api.netboxlabs.com/v2/
Available resources
The Cloud API currently exposes:
- Backups -- request backups, download backup files, and restore from a backup
Next steps
- Create an API key in the Console
- Authenticate your requests using the key
- Review permissions to understand what each key can access
- Use the Backups API to manage backups programmatically
