Introduction

Overview

Welcome to the Cloud Foundry V3 API docs! Version 3 adds support for several key features:

Getting help

The CAPI team can most easily be reached on our Slack channel for questions and issues regarding the API. To report an issue with the docs or API, please feel free to file a GitHub issue on our API repo, cloud_controller_ng.

We recommend reaching out to Slack first as we will be most responsive there.

More resources

Concepts

API Resource

A resource represents an individual object within the system, such as an app or a service. It is represented as a JSON object.

A resource consists of several required resource fields and other attributes specific to the resource.

See Resources and Experimental Resources for specific resources.

Required fields

Example Person Resource
{
  "guid": "fd35633f-5c5c-4e4e-a5a9-0722c970a9d2",
  "created_at": "2016-03-18T23:26:46Z",
  "updated_at": "2016-10-17T20:00:42Z",

  "name": "Bob",

  "links": {
    "self": {
      "href": "https://api.example.org/v3/people/fd35633f-5c5c-4e4e-a5a9-0722c970a9d2"
    }
  }
}
Name Type Description
guid uuid The unique identifier for the resource
created_at timestamp The ISO8601 compatible date and time when resource was created
updated_at timestamp The ISO8601 compatible date and time when resource was last updated
links links object URLs to related resources and actions for the current resource

Links provide URLs to relationships and actions for a resource. Links are represented as a JSON object and always contain a self link.

Each link is keyed by its type and will include a href for the URL and an optional method for links that cannot be followed using GET.

Example Link object
{
  "href": "http://example.com/some/endpoint",
  "method": "POST"
}
Name Type Description
href string The absolute URL
method string An optional field containing the HTTP method to be used when following the URL

Authentication

The Cloud Foundry V3 API is secured using OAuth 2. Clients are expected to present a valid bearer token via HTTP header: Authorization: bearer <token>

Tokens can be obtained from the Cloud Foundry UAA server. For more information, see the UAA API Documentation

Authorization

Access to resources is determined by combining scopes in the OAuth 2 token with user roles that are managed by the API.

OAuth 2 scopes

Scope Description
cloud_controller.admin This scope provides read and write access to all resources
cloud_controller.admin_read_only This scope provides read only access to all resources
cloud_controller.global_auditor This scope provides read only access to all resources except secrets (such as environment variables)
cloud_controller.read This scope provides read access to resources based on user roles
cloud_controller.write This scope provides write access to resources based on user roles
cloud_controller.update_build_state This scope allows its bearer to update the state of a build; currently only used when updating builds
cloud_controller_service_permissions.read This scope provides read only access for service instance permissions

Cloud Foundry user roles

Users that interact with the API should have one or more of these roles. Some of them (e.g. admin) are controlled via scopes on the user’s token. Others (e.g. space developer) are controlled via the roles resource.

Role Description
Admin Allows a user to manage the platform; OAuth token must contain cloud_controller.admin scope
Admin Read-Only Allows a user to read all resources on the platform; OAuth token must contain cloud_controller.admin_read_only scope
Global Auditor Allows a user to read all resources on the platform, excluding sensitive data such as environment variables and service bindings. OAuth token must contain cloud_controller.global_auditor scope
Org User Allows a user to be assigned other roles within an organization and its spaces
Org Manager Provides organization management access
Org Auditor Provides read-only access to an organization for auditing purposes
Org Billing Manager Allows a user to create and manage billing account and payment information
Space Developer Allows developers to create and manage apps and services in a space
Space Manager Provides space management access
Space Auditor Provides read-only access to a space for auditing purposes
Space Supporter Troubleshoot and debug apps and service bindings in a space

Component roles

Components that interact with the Cloud Controller in the back-end can be given these roles to allow limited access to API resources. These roles are controlled via scopes on the component’s token.

Role Description
Build State Updater Allows a component to update the state of build resources; OAuth token must contain cloud_controller.update_build_state scope

Errors

Example Error
{
  "errors": [
    {
      "code": 10008,
      "title": "CF-UnprocessableEntity",
      "detail": "something went wrong"
    }
  ]
}

An error response will always return a list of error objects. Errors appear on the job resource for asynchronous operations.

The error object

Clients should use the code and title fields for programmatically handling specific errors. The message in the detail field is subject to change over time.

Name Type Description
code integer A numeric code for this error
title string Name of the error
detail string Detailed description of the error

Common errors

These are some of the more common errors returned by many endpoints.

Title Code HTTP Status Description
CF-BadQueryParameter 10005 400 An invalid query parameter was given
CF-InvalidAuthToken 1000 401 An invalid auth token was given
CF-NotAuthenticated 10002 401 No auth token was given, but authentication is required for this endpoint
CF-NotAuthorized 10003 403 The authenticated user does not have permission to perform this operation
CF-ResourceNotFound 10010 404 The specified resource does not exist, or the authenticated user cannot read it
CF-UnprocessableEntity 10008 422 Catch-all error when an operation fails to complete; the detail field will contain more information
UnknownError 10001 500 An unexpected, uncaught error occurred; the CC logs will contain more information

Fields

The fields parameter allows clients to fetch resources and include information of parent objects in the response. It works in a similar way to include, but the response only displays the requested fields rather than the entire resource.

For example, a response to /v3/service_instances/:guid?fields[space.organization]=name will contain detailed information about the service instance, as well as the name of the organization it belongs to.

Developers may choose to use the fields feature to reduce the number of API calls. The fields query param can be used with a single resource or a list of resources.

The fields query parameter may also grant visibility to parts of resources where the whole resource is not visible. For instance, the name of an organization may be retrieved with fields, where the whole organization resource may not be visible.

Fields parameter

The fields parameter is structured as: fields[resource]=keys&fields[parent.resource]=other,keys

For information on fields support for each resource refer to its documentation.

            "name": "org2"
         }
      ]
   }
}

Filters

Endpoints which return lists of resources also support filtering the returned resources using query parameters. Each resource’s list endpoint documents the allowed filters for that endpoint. For details about the syntax of query parameters in general, see query parameters.

Examples

Single value request

GET /v3/apps?names=the_name

This will return all apps with name the_name.

Multiple value request

GET /v3/apps?names=first_name,second_name

This will return all apps with name the_name OR second_name.

In the case of audit events, multiple timestamps can be requested, which will return all audit events that occurred at those timestamps. In the following request, all audit events that occurred New Year’s just before midnight and July 4th at noon will be returned:

GET /v3/audit_events?created_ats=2019-12-31T23:59:59Z,2020-07-04T12:00:00Z

Exception

The label_selector query parameter will act as AND function, not an OR.

GET /v3/spaces?label_selector=production,east_coast

This will return all spaces whose metadata has labels with keys production AND east_coast.

Combined filters

GET /v3/apps?names=the_name&stacks=cflinuxfs4

This will return all apps with name the_name AND stack cflinuxfs4.

Empty filters

An empty filter (/v3/resources?fields=) can mean either empty string ("") or NULL, depending on the resource type.

GET /v3/buildpacks?stacks=

This will return all buildpacks with stack NULL.

GET /v3/routes?hosts=hostname1,,hostname2

This will return all routes with hostname "hostname1", "" OR "hostname2".

Relational Operators

Some fields (e.g. created_at and updated_at) can be filtered using relational operators when listing resources.

For example, a response to GET /v3/audit_events?created_ats[lt]=2020-06-30T12:34:56Z will contain audit events with a created_at timestamp strictly earlier than 2020-06-30T12:34:56Z.

Multiple relational operators can be combined to further refine the listed resources. For example, a response to GET /v3/audit_events?created_ats[lt]=2020-01-02T00:00:00Z&created_ats[gt]=2019-12-31T23:59:59Z will return all audit events occurring on New Year’s Day.

Timestamps must be in standard timestamp format.

Valid relational operators
Operator Description
lt Return resources strictly less than the given value for the filtered attribute
lte Return resources less than or equal to the given value for the filtered attribute
gt Return resources strictly greater than the given value for the filtered attribute
gte Return resources greater than or equal to the given value for the filtered attribute

Exclusion Operator

Some fields support filtering on all values except a given set of values.

For example, a response to GET /v3/audit_events?target_guids[not]=guid-1,guid-2 will contain audit events with a target.guid not equal to guid-1 nor guid-2.

Operator Description
not Return resources not equal to the given value(s) for the filtered attribute

Include

The include parameter allows clients to fetch resources and include information of parent objects in the response. For example, a response to /v3/spaces/:guid?include=organization will contain detailed information about the space and its parent organization.

Developers may choose to use the include feature to reduce the number of API calls. The include query param can be used with a single resource or a list of resources.

Resources with includes

The following resources can take an include parameter:

Resource Allowed values
apps space.organization, space
apps/[:guid] space.organization, space
roles user, space, organization
roles/[:guid] user, space, organization
routes domain, space.organization, space
routes/[:guid] domain, space.organization, space
service_plans space.organization, service_offering
service_plans/[:guid] space.organization, service_offering
service_credential_bindings app, service_instance
service_credential_bindings/[:guid] app, service_instance
service_route_bindings route, service_instance
service_route_bindings/[:guid] route, service_instance
spaces organization
spaces/[:guid] organization

            "...": "..."
         }
      ]
   }
}

Lifecycles

Lifecycles inform the platform of how to build droplets and run apps. For example, a docker lifecycle will pull a Docker image from a registry to run an app.

The lifecycle object

Name Type Description
type string Type of the lifecycle; valid values are buildpack, docker, kpack
data object Data that is used during staging and running for a lifecycle

Buildpack lifecycle

Example Buildpack Lifecycle
{
  "type": "buildpack",
  "data": {
    "buildpacks": ["java_buildpack"],
    "stack": "cflinuxfs4"
  }
}

This is the default lifecycle for Cloud Foundry for VMs. When staging an app with this lifecycle, the app source code will be compiled using a buildpack, resulting in a droplet. When running an app with this lifecycle, a container running a rootfs will be created and the droplet will be expanded inside that container to be executed.

If buildpacks are not specified, then Cloud Foundry will automatically detect a compatible buildpack, based on the files in an app’s package. If a stack is not specified, then the app will default to the operator-configured default stack.

Buildpack lifecycle object

Name Type Description
type string buildpack
data.buildpacks list of strings A list of the names of buildpacks, URLs from which they may be downloaded, or null to auto-detect a suitable buildpack during staging
data.stack string The root filesystem to use with the buildpack, for example cflinuxfs4

Docker lifecycle

Example Docker Lifecycle
{
  "type": "docker",
  "data": {}
}

This allows Cloud Foundry to run pre-built Docker images. When staging an app with this lifecycle, the Docker registry is queried for metadata about the image, such as ports and start command. When running an app with this lifecycle, a container is created and the Docker image is executed inside of it.

Docker lifecycle object

Name Type Description
type string docker
data object Data is not used by the Docker lifecycle; valid value is {}

Metadata

Metadata allows you to tag API resources with information that does not directly affect its functionality.

Annotations

Example Resource with Annotations
{
  "guid": "fd35633f-5c5c-4e4e-a5a9-0722c970a9d2",
  "created_at": "2016-03-18T23:26:46Z",
  "updated_at": "2016-10-17T20:00:42Z",
  "name": "api-server",
  "metadata": {
    "labels": {},
    "annotations": {
      "contacts": "Bill tel(1111111) email(bill@fixme), Bob tel(222222) pager(3333333#555) email(bob@fixme)"
    }
  },
  "links": {
    "self": {
      "href": "https://api.example.org/v3/apps/fd35633f-5c5c-4e4e-a5a9-0722c970a9d2"
    }
  }
}

Annotations are user-specified key-value pairs that are attached to API resources. They do not affect the operation of Cloud Foundry. Annotations cannot be used in filters.

When a service instance is being created, the service broker is sent the annotations of the service instance, and the space and organization in which the service instance resides. When a service instance is being updated, the service broker is sent the annotations of the space and organization in which the service instance resides. When a service binding is being created, the service broker is sent annotations of any associated app, and the space and organization in which the binding resides. Only annotations with a prefix (e.g. company.com/contacts) are sent to service brokers.

Examples may include (but are not limited to):

Annotation keys

Annotation keys are made up of an (optional) prefix and name. If a prefix is present, it is separated from the name by a /. Prefixes are DNS names intended to enable namespacing of annotation keys.

An annotation key prefix must adhere to the following restrictions:

An annotation key name must adhere to the following restrictions:

Annotation values

Annotation values must adhere to the following restrictions:

Labels and selectors

Example Resource with Labels
{
  "guid": "fd35633f-5c5c-4e4e-a5a9-0722c970a9d2",
  "created_at": "2016-03-18T23:26:46Z",
  "updated_at": "2016-10-17T20:00:42Z",
  "name": "api-server",
  "metadata": {
    "labels": {
      "environment": "production",
      "internet-facing": "false"
    },
    "annotations": {}
  },
  "links": {
    "self": {
      "href": "https://api.example.org/v3/apps/fd35633f-5c5c-4e4e-a5a9-0722c970a9d2"
    }
  }
}

Labels are user-specified key/value pairs that are attached to API Resources. They are queryable, identifying attributes of a resource, but they do not affect the operation of CloudFoundry.

For example, an app may be assigned a label with key sensitive and possible values true or false.

Users could then find all sensitive apps with a selector for sensitive=true, resulting in a response containing only apps having the label key sensitive with a label value of true.

Labels

Labels allow users to apply identifying attributes to resources that are meaningful to the user, but not the CloudFoundry system.

Examples may include (but are not limited to):

Label keys

Label keys are made up of an (optional) prefix, and name. If a prefix is present, it is separated from the name by a /. Prefixes are dns names intended to enable namespacing of label keys.

A label key prefix must adhere to the following restrictions:

A label key name must adhere to the following restrictions:

Label values

Label values must adhere to the following restrictions:

Selectors

Example label selector
cf curl /v3/apps?label_selector=env=dev,%21chargeback-code,tier%20in%20%28backend,worker%29

Selectors allow users to filter and group API resources by the labels applied to them. A selector consists of one or more requirements in a comma-delimited list. The maximum number of requirements in a single selector is 50.

eg: env=dev,!chargeback-code,tier in (backend,worker)

Selectors can be used to filter and group resources using the query parameter label_selector on list endpoints.

A requirement consists of a key, an operator, and optional value(s).

Requirement Format Description
existence key Returns all resources that have been assigned a label with the given key (with any value)
non-existence !key Returns all resources that have not been assigned a label with the given key (with any value)
equality key=value or key==value Returns all resources that have been assigned a label with the given key and value
inequality key!=value Returns all resources that either have not been assigned a label with the given key or have a label with the given key but a different value
set inclusion key in (value1,value2…) Returns all resources that have been assigned a label with the given key with one of the specified value(s)
set exclusion key notin (value1,value2…) Returns all resources that either have not been assigned a label with the given key or have a label with the given key but none of the specified value(s)

See the metadata documentation for more information.

Updating labels and annotations

Example Initial Metadata
{
  "metadata": {
    "labels": {
      "environment": "staging",
      "ready-to-deploy": "true"
    },
    "annotations": {
       "spring-version": "5.1",
       "app-version": "0.1-alpha"
     }
  }
}
Example Patch Request Body
{
  "metadata": {
    "labels": {
      "environment": "production",
      "ready-to-deploy": null
    },
    "annotations": {
       "app-version": "0.1",
       "deployed-month": "november"
     }
  }
}
Example Final Metadata
{
  "metadata": {
    "labels": {
      "environment": "production"
    },
    "annotations": {
       "spring-version": "5.1",
       "app-version": "0.1",
       "deployed-month": "november"
     }
  }
}

Labels and annotations can be updated by using the PATCH endpoint for their resource. For example, to update labels or annotations on an app, use the update an app endpoint. When patching metadata, CAPI endpoints do a deep merge, only updating labels or annotations that are specified in the request.

Labels and annotations follow the same rules for patching and must be wrapped in the metadata object inside the request body

Pagination

Example Paginated Response
{
  "pagination": {
    "total_results": 3,
    "total_pages": 3,
    "first": {
      "href": "https://api.example.org/v3/people?page=1&per_page=1"
    },
    "last": {
      "href": "https://api.example.org/v3/people?page=3&per_page=1"
    },
    "next": {
      "href": "https://api.example.org/v3/people?page=2&per_page=1"
    },
    "previous": null
  },
  "resources": [
    {
      "guid": "fd35633f-5c5c-4e4e-a5a9-0722c970a9d2",
      "created_at": "2016-03-18T23:26:46Z",
      "updated_at": "2016-10-17T20:00:42Z",
      "name": "Bob",
      "links": {
        "self": {
          "href": "https://api.example.org/v3/people/fd35633f-5c5c-4e4e-a5a9-0722c970a9d2"
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

Any request that can return multiple resources will be paginated and contain a pagination object and list of resources. Requests for multiple resources can use page, per_page, and order_by in addition to filters specific to the endpoint.

The pagination object

Name Type Description
total_results integer Total number of resources for all pages
total_pages integer Total number of pages
first link object Link to the first page
last link object Link to the last page
next link object Link to the next page
previous link object Link to the previous page

Procfiles

Example Ruby Procfile
web: bundle exec rackup config.ru -p $PORT
rake: bundle exec rake
worker: bundle exec rake workers:start

A Procfile enables you to declare required runtime processes, called process types, for your app. Procfiles must be named Procfile exactly and placed in the root directory of your application.

In a Procfile, you declare one process type per line and use the syntax PROCESS_TYPE: COMMAND.

Procfile use cases

Many buildpacks provide their own process types and commands by default; however, there are special cases where specifying a custom COMMAND is necessary. Commands can be overwritten by providing a Procfile with the same process type.

For example, a buildpack may provide a worker process type that runs the rake default:start command. If a Procfile is provided that also contains a worker process type, but a different command such as rake custom:start, the rake custom:start command will be used.

Some buildpacks, such as Python, that work on a variety of frameworks, do not attempt to provide a default start command. For these cases, a Procfile should be used to specify any necessary commands for the app.

Web process

web is a special process type that is required for all applications. The web PROCESS_TYPE must be specified by either the buildpack or the Procfile.

Specifying processes in manifest files

Custom process types can also be configured via a manifest file. Read more about manifests. It is not recommended to specify processes in both a manifest and a Procfile for the same app.

Query Parameters

Clients can assume that query parameters on the API will always follow these rules:

Because commas are used to separate list entries, parameter values that contain commas must be percent-encoded. For example, to retrieve apps named either a,b or c,d, the query parameter would look like names=a%2Cb,c%2Cd. Note that the commas within the app names are encoded (as %2C), but the comma separating the two app names is not. The resulting query parameter must be encoded a second time before sending it to the API, e.g. cf curl /v3/apps?names=a%252Cb,c%252Cd.

Relationships

Relationships represent associations between resources. When relationships are mutable, they can be used to create, read, update, and delete these associations. An app’s relationship to its current droplet is mutable, but an app’s relationship to its space is not.

Relationships do not affect the fundamental properties of a resource, but may affect their behavior and permissions logic. Relationships are tied to the lifecycles of the associated resources and will be removed if either of the associated resources are deleted. For example, if a user is removed from an organization, both the user and the organization persist, but the relationship between them does not.

Not all resources implement every relationship operation demonstrated in the examples below. See the docs for each resource to see how it interacts with its relationships.

Endpoints that return relationship data list this information under the relationships key.

The relationship object

The relationship object is a key-value pair that uniquely identifies a resource. In practice this is almost always the guid of a resource.

Name Type Description
guid string The unique identifier for the related resource

To-one relationships

Example to-one relationship
{
  "data": {
    "guid": "[related-resource-guid]"
  }
}

Some relationships relate a resource to exactly one other resource. For example an app can belong to only one space.

To-one relationship object

Name Type Description
data relationship object A single relationship

Example to-many relationship
{
  "data": [
    { "guid": "[related-resource-guid-1]" },
    { "guid": "[related-resource-guid-2]" }
  ]
}

Some relationships relate a resource to several other resources. For example, an isolation segment can be entitled to multiple organizations.

Status Codes

Cloud Foundry V3 API uses a subset of HTTP response codes to indicate the success or failure of an API request. In general, codes in the 2xx range indicate success, codes in the 4xx range indicate an error that can potentially be fixed by correcting the request, and codes in the 5xx range indicate an error on the server side.

HTTP Status Code Description
200 OK The request completed successfully
201 Created The request completed successfully and created a new resource
202 Accepted The request will be completed asynchronously; see asynchronous operations
204 No Content The request completed successfully and did not return a body
400 Bad Request The request has malformed or invalid data
401 Unauthenticated The request requires an authenticated user
403 Forbidden The request cannot be performed by the user
404 Not Found The requested resource does not exist
422 Unprocessable Entity The request cannot be performed
500 Internal Server Error An unexpected error occurred
502 Bad Gateway An external upstream service caused the request to fail
503 Service Unavailable An internal upstream service caused the request to fail

Timestamps

Timestamps generally appear in created_at and updated_at fields on resources. Precision beyond seconds is not supported, even if the underlying database supports it (e.g. Postgres). As a result, filtering on sub-second timestamps is not allowed.

All v3 timestamps have the following format YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ.

Example timestamp (June 30, 2020 at 11:49:04 PM UTC): 2020-06-30T23:49:04Z

Updating Actual State

The Cloud Controller is primarily responsible for the desired state of apps and processes. Most endpoints will only update the desired states of your apps and processes within Cloud Controller in order to provide users with the opportunity to incur zero downtime when updating apps. Restarting the app will be required for the desired state changes to become the actual state.

The stats endpoint can be used at any time to determine the actual (running) state of a process, and by proxy, an app.

Endpoints that will affect runtime

The following endpoints will immediately impact the runtime of the app, and the desired changes will take effect without needing to restart the app.

Endpoint
PATCH /v3/spaces/:guid/features/ssh
DELETE /v3/routes/:guid/destinations/:destination_guid

The following endpoints will immediately impact runtime and take effect when only the instances field is updated. If any other fields are updated, the app will need to be restarted in order for any desired changes to take effect, including instance count changes.

Endpoint
POST /v3/processes/:guid/actions/scale
POST /v3/apps/:guid/processes/:type/actions/scale

The following endpoints will immediately impact runtime and the desired changes will take effect if the specified fields are not included in the request.

If the field is specified, the app will need to be restarted in order for any desired changes to take effect.

Endpoint Changes requiring a restart
POST /v3/routes/:guid/destinations Adding a destination with a port
PATCH /v3/routes/:guid/destinations Replacing the port field

Note: If the port is specified, this endpoint will unmap any route not listed in the body but will not map any of the new routes in the request body. For this reason we caution against using the endpoint in most circumstances. A combination of adding ports and removing ports will better fit most use cases.

All other changes will not take effect on running apps until they are restarted.

Warnings

Example Warnings
{
  "warnings": [
    {
      "detail": "something went wrong"
    }
  ]
}

Warnings appear on the job resource.

Admin

These endpoints are only for admin users.

Clear buildpack cache

Example Request
curl "https://api.example.org/v3/admin/actions/clear_buildpack_cache" \
  -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: bearer [token]"
Example Response
HTTP/1.1 202 Accepted
Location: https://api.example.org/v3/jobs/[guid]

This endpoint will delete all of the existing buildpack caches in the blobstore. The buildpack cache is used during staging by buildpacks as a way to cache certain resources, e.g. downloaded Ruby gems. An admin who wants to decrease the size of their blobstore could use this endpoint to delete unnecessary blobs.

Audit Events

Audit events help Cloud Foundry operators monitor actions taken against resources (such as apps) via user or system actions.

For more information and a list of all possible event types, see the Cloud Foundry docs.

Builds

Builds represent the process of staging an application package. There are two types (lifecycles) of builds: buildpack and docker.

After an application is created and packages are uploaded, a build resource can be created to initiate the staging process. A successful build results in a droplet.

Buildpacks

Buildpacks are used during a build to download external dependencies and transform a package into an executable droplet. In this way, buildpacks are a pluggable extension to Cloud Foundry that enable CF to run different languages and frameworks. Buildpacks will automatically detect if they support an application. Buildpacks can also be explicitly specified on apps and builds.

Domains

Domains represent a fully qualified domain name that is used for application routes.

A domain can be scoped to an organization, meaning it can be used to create routes for spaces inside that organization, or be left unscoped to allow all organizations access.

Droplets

Droplets are the result of staging an application package. There are two types (lifecycles) of droplets: buildpack and docker. In the case of the buildpacks, the droplet contains the bits produced by the buildpack, typically application code and dependencies.

After an application is created and packages are uploaded, a droplet must be created via a build in order for an application to be deployed or tasks to be run. The current droplet must be assigned to an application before it may be started. When tasks are created, they either use a specific droplet guid, or use the current droplet assigned to an application.

The droplet object

Download droplet bits

Example Request

  -X GET \
  -H "Authorization: bearer [token]" \
Example Response
HTTP/1.1 302 FOUND
Content-Type: application/json

Download a gzip compressed tarball file containing a Cloud Foundry compatible droplet. When using a remote blobstore, such as AWS, the response is a redirect to the actual location of the bits. If the client is automatically following redirects, then the OAuth token that was used to communicate with Cloud Controller will be relayed on the new redirect request. Some blobstores may reject the request in that case. Clients may need to follow the redirect without including the OAuth token.

Only droplets that are in the STAGED state and have lifecycle type buildpack can be downloaded.

Environment Variable Groups

There are two types of environment variable groups: running and staging. They are designed to allow platform operators/admins to manage environment variables across all apps in a foundation.

Variables in a running environment variable group will be injected into all running app containers.

Variables in a staging environment variable group will be injected into the staging container for all apps while they are being staged.

The environment variable group object

Example environment variable group object
{
  "updated_at": "2016-05-04T17:00:41Z",
  "name": "running",
  "var": {
    "foo": "bar"
  },
  "links": {
    "self": {
      "href": "https://api.example.org/v3/environment_variable_groups/running"
    }
  }
}

Name Type Description
updated_at string The time of last update
name string The name of the group; can only be running or staging
var object Environment variables to inject; keys and values must be strings
links links object Links to related resources

App-level configuration

This configuration is specified per application and applies to all of the application’s processes.

Name Type Description
name string Name of the app
buildpacks list of strings a) An empty array, which will automatically select the appropriate default buildpack according to the coding language
b) An array of one or more URLs pointing to buildpacks
c) An array of one or more installed buildpack names
Replaces the legacy buildpack field
docker object If present, the created app will have Docker lifecycle type; the value of this key is ignored by the API but may be used by clients to source the registry address of the image and credentials, if needed; the generate manifest endpoint will return the registry address of the image and username provided with this key
env object A key-value mapping of environment variables to be used for the app when running
no-route boolean When set to true, any routes specified with the routes attribute will be ignored and any existing routes will be removed
processes array of process configurations List of configurations for individual process types
random-route boolean Creates a random route for the app if true; if routes is specified, if the app already has routes, or if no-route is specified, this field is ignored regardless of its value
default-route boolean If true, a route for the app will be created using the app name as the hostname and the containing organization’s default domain as the domain; if routes is specified, if the app already has routes, or if no-route is specified, this field is ignored regardless of its value
routes array of route configurations List declaring HTTP and TCP routes to be mapped to the app.

buildpack string DEPRECATED in favor of the buildpacks field above

Process-level configuration

This configuration is for the individual process. Each process is created if it does not already exist.

For backwards compatibility, the web process configuration may be placed at the top level of the application configuration, rather than listed under processes. However, if there is a process with type: web listed under processes, this configuration will override any at the top level.

Name Type Description
type string (Required) The identifier for the processes to be configured
command string The command used to start the process; this overrides start commands from Procfiles and buildpacks
disk_quota string The disk limit for all instances of the web process;
this attribute requires a unit of measurement: B, K, KB, M, MB, G, GB, T, or TB in upper case or lower case
health-check-http-endpoint string Endpoint called to determine if the app is healthy
health-check-invocation-timeout integer The timeout in seconds for individual health check requests for http and port health checks
health-check-type string Type of health check to perform; none is deprecated and an alias to process
instances integer The number of instances to run
memory string The memory limit for all instances of the web process;
this attribute requires a unit of measurement: B, K, KB, M, MB, G, GB, T, or TB in upper case or lower case
log-rate-limit-per-second string The log rate limit for all the instances of the process;
this attribute requires a unit of measurement: B, K, KB, M, MB, G, GB, T, or TB in upper case or lower case, or -1 or 0
timeout integer Time in seconds at which the health-check will report failure

Route-level configuration

This configuration is for creating mappings between the app and a route. Each route is created if it does not already exist. The protocol will be updated for any existing route mapping.

Name Type Description
route string (Required) The route URI. Example: host.domain.com
protocol string Protocol to use for this route. Valid protocols are http1, http2, and tcp.

This configuration is creating new service bindings between the app and a service instance. The services field can take either an array of service instance name strings or an array of the following service-level fields.

Name Type Description
name string (Required) The name of the service instance to be bound to
binding_name string The name of the service binding to be created
parameters object A map of arbitrary key/value pairs to send to the service broker during binding

Sidecar-level configuration

This configuration is for the individual sidecar. Each sidecar is created if it does not already exist.

Name Type Description
name string (Required) The identifier for the sidecars to be configured
command string The command used to start the sidecar
process_types list of strings List of processes to associate sidecar with
memory integer Memory in MB that the sidecar will be allocated

Organization Quotas

Organization quotas are named sets of memory, log rate, service, and instance usage quotas. For example, one organization quota might allow up to 10 services, 10 routes, and 2 GB of RAM, while another might offer 100 services, 100 routes, and 10 GB of RAM.

An organization has exactly one organization quota. If not specifically assigned a quota, it will have the default quota.

For more information, see the Cloud Foundry docs.

Packages

A package is an application’s ‘source code’; either raw bits for your application or a pointer to these bits.

In Cloud Foundry, packages are staged to produce an executable Droplet. We currently support raw bits and Docker packages.

Download package bits

Example Request
curl "https://api.example.org/v3/packages/[guid]/download" \
  -X GET \
  -H "Authorization: bearer [token]"
Example Response
HTTP/1.1 302 Found

You are being redirected.

This endpoint downloads the bits of an existing package.

When using a remote blobstore, such as AWS, the response is a redirect to the actual location of the bits. If the client is automatically following redirects, then the OAuth token that was used to communicate with Cloud Controller will be replayed on the new redirect request. Some blobstores may reject the request in that case. Clients may need to follow the redirect without including the OAuth token.

Resource Matches

This endpoint matches given resource SHA-1/file size pairs against the Cloud Controller cache and reports the subset that describes already cached files. This is usually used to avoid uploading duplicate files when pushing an app which has only been partially changed. The path and mode fields are not used when matching.

When uploading package bits, the response from this endpoint should be used as the resources form field. As such, it is useful to include the path and mode fields for each resource even though they are not used when determining a resource match.

Cloud Foundry operators may set minimum/maximum file sizes to match against. If the file size provided is outside this range, it will not be matched against.

If the resource_matching feature flag is disabled, resource matching will always return an empty array.

The resource match object

Example Resource Match object
{
  "resources": [
    {
      "checksum": { "value": "a9993e364706816aba3e25717850c26c9cd0d89d" },
      "size_in_bytes": 1,
      "path": "path/to/file",
      "mode": "644"
    }
  ]
}

Name Type Description
checksum.value string (Required) SHA-1 hash of file
size_in_bytes integer (Required) Size of file in bytes
path string Path to the file, relative to app root
mode string File mode, i.e. POSIX file permissions; defaults to 0744

Revisions

Revisions represent code used by an application at a specific time. The most recent revision for a running application represents code and configuration currently running in Cloud Foundry.

Revision are created when the following is changed:

Each time a new revision is created the reason(s) for the revisions creation will be appended to its description field.

By default the cloud foundry API retains at most 100 revisions per app.

Roles

Roles control access to resources in organizations and spaces. Roles are assigned to users.

For example, a user with the space_developer role is able to push applications to their space. A space_manager user can also add roles to users within that space (e.g. making a user a space_auditor). An organization_manager has wide-reaching privileges, able to create & delete spaces, and assign & unassign roles to users.

This endpoint creates a new role for a user in an organization or space.

To create an organization role you must be an admin or organization manager in the organization associated with the role.

To create a space role you must be an admin, an organization manager in the parent organization of the space associated with the role, or a space manager in the space associated with the role.

For a user to be assigned a space role, the user must already have an organization role in the parent organization.

If the associated user is valid but does not exist in Cloud Controller’s database, a user resource will be created automatically.

Routes

Routes are addresses that direct matched network traffic to one or more destinations. Each route is based on a domain name with additional matching criteria (host (subdomain), path, etc). Matched traffic will be distributed across all destinations, based on their configuration (round-robin by default).

Name Type Description
guid uuid Unique identifier for the route
created_at timestamp The time with zone when the object was created
updated_at timestamp The time with zone when the object was last updated
protocol string The protocol supported by the route, based on the route’s domain configuration. Valid protocols are http and tcp
host string The hostname for the route; not compatible with routes specifying the tcp protocol;
must be either a wildcard (*) or be under 63 characters long and only contain letters, numbers, dashes (-) or underscores(_)
path string The path for the route; not compatible with routes specifying the tcp protocol;
must be under 128 characters long and not contain question marks (?), begin with a slash (/) and not be exactly a slash (/). Must conform to path components from RFC 2396
port integer or null The port that the route listens on. Only compatible with routes specifying the tcp protocol
url string The URL for the route; URLs of protocol http are a combination of host, domain name, and path; URLs of protocol tcp are a combination of domain name and port
destinations array of destination objects List of destinations for the route
relationships.space to-one relationship A relationship to the space containing the route. Routes can only be mapped to destinations in that space
relationships.domain to-one relationship A relationship to the domain of the route
metadata.labels label object Labels applied to the route

The destination object

Example Destination object
{
  "guid": "89323d4e-2e84-43e7-83e9-adbf50a20c0e",
  "app": {
    "guid": "1cb006ee-fb05-47e1-b541-c34179ddc446",
    "process": {
      "type": "web"
    }
  },
  "weight": null,
  "port": 8080,
  "protocol": "http2"
}

A destination represents the relationship between a route and a resource that can serve traffic (for example, the web process of an application).

When a route has destinations, that route will direct traffic to the processes represented by those destinations.

If a destination is created with a port specified, the route will direct traffic to that port on the process. A destination with port 9000 and process type api means traffic will be directed to the api process running on container port 9000.

Note that when using a custom port, the app process must be listening on the specified port for the mapping to work. Otherwise, visiting the route will result in a 404 error.

If a destination does not specify a port, the default port depends on the app lifecycle type. For buildpack apps, traffic will be directed to port 8080. For Docker apps, the first port specified in the Dockerfile will be used.

Name Type Description
guid uuid Unique identifier for the destination
app.guid uuid Unique identifier for the app to route traffic to
app.process.type string Type of the process belonging to the app to route traffic to
port integer Port on the destination process to route traffic to
weight (experimental) integer or null Percentage of traffic which will be routed to this destination; this feature is only available via the BETA Service Mesh routing plane
protocol string or null Protocol to use for this destination. Valid protocols are http1 or http2 if route protocol is http, tcp if route protocol is tcp. A null value will set it either http1 or tcp based on the route protocol; this feature is only available if you turn it on in routing release

This endpoint will only update the parameters specified in the request body. Any unspecified parameters will retain their existing values.

Updates to the rules parameter will fully replace the current set of rules for the security group.

Updates to the globally_enabled parameter will be merged with the existing configuration. For example, an update to the globally_enabled.running parameter will not affect the globally_enabled.staging configuration.

}

This endpoint binds one or more spaces to a security group with the running lifecycle.

Running app containers within these spaces will inherit the rules specified by this security group.

Apps within these spaces must be restarted for these changes to take effect.

Unless a security group is globally-enabled, an admin must add it to a space for it to be visible for the org and space managers. Once it’s visible, org and space managers can add it to additional spaces.

Service Brokers

Service brokers manage the lifecycle of services. On behalf of users, Cloud Controller will interact with service brokers to provision, get access to and manage access to the service offerings and plans they offer.

Admins can create and manage service brokers that are globally available, i.e., the service broker and its associated resources (service offerings and plans) can be made available to all users.

Space Developers can create and manage space-scoped service brokers. A space-scoped broker and its associated resources will only be available in the space the service broker was created.

Service broker jobs

CRUD operations for service brokers are asynchronous. create, update and delete endpoints include a job URL in the Location header of the HTTP response.

These jobs are the only source of information about the progress of the operation. Therefore, the job must be polled to find out when the process ends and if it was successful. There is no mechanism to link a service broker with its jobs, apart from the Location header in the API response.

When a failure occurs during a create job, the service broker won’t be usable. It will still be included in the GET endpoints responses, hence the importance of querying the job to find out the end status.

When updating a service broker, catalog changes will be rolled-back in the event of the job failing. The service broker catalog will remain unchanged with no indication that the update operation failed. Querying the job will provide such information.

Service Offerings

Service offerings represent the services offered by service brokers. A service broker will have one or more service offerings. A service offering will have one or more service plans. Service offerings and service plans are created and updated when a service broker is registered or updated.

Visibility of service offerings

This table shows the service offerings that different roles can see. The service offerings that a user can see relate to their space and organization roles, regardless of which space or organization is being targeted.

A service offering can be seen when at least one of its service plans can be seen. Service plans may be configured to be public, or they may be configured with a relationship to a restricted list of organizations.

Service offerings and service plans from a space-scoped service broker cannot have their visibility configured. They are only visible to members of that space.

This endpoint deletes a service instance and any associated service credential bindings or service route bindings. The service instance is removed from all spaces where it is available.

User provided service instances do not require interactions with service brokers, therefore the API will respond synchronously to the delete request.

For managed service instances, the API will respond asynchronously. If a service credential binding or service route binding cannot be deleted synchronously, then the operation will fail, and the deletion of the binding will continue in the background. The operation can be retried until it is successful.

Service Credential Binding

Service credential bindings are used to make the details of the connection to a service instance available to an app or a developer.

Service credential bindings can be of type app or key.

A service credential binding is of type app when it is a binding between a service instance and an application Not all services support this binding, as some services deliver value to users directly without integration with an application. Field broker_catalog.features.bindable from service plan of the service instance can be used to determine if it is bindable.

A service credential binding is of type key when it only retrieves the details of the service instance and makes them available to the developer.

Service Route Binding

Service route bindings are relations between a service instance and a route.

Not all service instances support route binding. In order to bind to a managed service instance, the service instance should be created from a service offering that has requires route forwarding (requires=[route_forwarding]). In order to bind to a user-provided service instance, the service instance must have route_service_url set.

Service Usage Events

Service usage events are a record of changes in the usage of services. For example, service usage events are recorded when a service instance is created, updated, and deleted. They may contain information about the service instance in question and the associated space, service broker, and service offering.

Usage events are typically used by billing and chargeback applications.

Sidecars

Sidecars are additional operating system processes that are run in the same container as a process.

Use cases for sidecars

Sidecars are useful for any app processes that need to communicate with another within the same container or are otherwise dependent on each other. Some use cases are:

Steps to create a sidecar

The recommended way to create sidecars for your app is with a manifest.

 sidecars:
  - name: authenticator
    process_types: [ 'web', 'worker' ]
    command: bundle exec run-authenticator
  - name: performance monitor
      process_types: [ 'web' ]
      command: bundle exec run-performance-monitor
      memory: 128M

1 Applies for Java apps. If you do not reserve memory for the sidecar, the JVM will consume all of the memory in the app container. This value must be less thatn the process’ reserved memory.

Space Quotas

Space quotas are named sets of quotas. Space quota names are unique within an organization. For example, an organization may only have one space quota named “production”, but two organizations may have two distinct space quotas, both named “production”.

Only one space quota may be applied to a given space at any given time.

Space quotas cannot be used to bypass organization quotas. When the organization’s quota and the space’s quota specify a different values for a given resource, the more restrictive of the two is used. In the event of permissions, the more restrictive permission is used.

Stacks

Stacks are the base operating system and file system that your application will execute in. A stack is how you configure applications to run against different operating systems (like Windows or Linux) and different versions of those operating systems (like Windows 2012 or Windows 2016).

An application’s lifecycle will specify which stack to execute the application in. Buildpacks can also be associated with a particular stack if they contain stack-specific logic. An application will automatically use buildpacks associated with the application’s configured stack.

Stacks are not used for apps with a Docker lifecycle.

The stack object

Example Stack object

updated_at timestamp The time with zone when the object was last updated
name string The name of the stack
description string The description of the stack
build_rootfs_image _string The name of the stack image associated with staging/building Apps. If a stack does not have unique images, this will be the same as the stack name.
run_rootfs_image _string The name of the stack image associated with running Apps + Tasks. If a stack does not have unique images, this will be the same as the stack name.
default boolean Whether the stack is configured to be the default stack for new applications.
metadata.labels label object Labels applied to the stack
metadata.annotations annotation object Annotations applied to the stack
links links object Links to related resources

Cancels a running task.

Canceled tasks will initially be in state CANCELING and will move to state FAILED once the cancel request has been processed.

Cancel requests are idempotent and will be processed according to the state of the task when the request is executed.

Canceling a task that is in SUCCEEDED or FAILED state will return an error.

Users

Every Cloud Foundry action (pushing an application, creating a space) requires a user. Each Cloud Foundry installation has one pre-installed user, admin, which can create subsequent users. Users can be assigned roles which give them privileges to perform actions. For example, the Space Developer role grants a user permission to manage apps and services in a space (to push apps, scale apps, delete apps).

Create a user

Creating a user requires one value, a GUID. This creates a user in the Cloud Controller database.

Generally, the GUID should match the GUID of an already-created user in the UAA database, though this is not required.

Upgrade Guide

This document is intended to help client authors upgrade from Cloud Foundry’s V2 API to the V3 API.

When moving to the V3 API, it is important to understand that the V3 API is backed by the same database as the V2 API. Though resources may be presented differently and have different interaction patterns, the internal state of CF is the same across both APIs. If you create an organization using the V3 API, it will be visible to the V2 API, and vice-versa.

If you have questions, need help, or want to chat about the upgrade process, please reach out to us in Cloud Foundry Slack.

Conceptual Changes

App Sub-Resources

The V2 API rolls up several resources into its representation of an “app”:

  1. Packages: Source assets for the application
  2. Droplets: Staged, executable assets for the application
  3. Builds: Configuration for how to stage the package into a droplet
  4. Processes: Configuration for how to run the droplet

The V3 API exposes these resources on the API to provide more visibility and enable more complicated workflows. For example:

  1. Staging a previous package into a new droplet
  2. Rolling back to a previous droplet
  3. Staging a droplet to run a task, without running any processes
  4. Running multiple different processes from a single droplet (for example: a web process and a worker process)

Here are some examples of implications for clients:

  1. The app resource contains much less information about the application as a whole
  2. An application can have multiple processes, each with their own start command. The processes can be scaled independently, and stats be retrieved independently.
  3. An application might not be running with its most recent package or droplet

Starting Apps

In the V2 API, starting an app (PUT /v2/apps/:GUID with state: STARTED) will automatically stage new packages into droplets. In V3, starting an app will only run the app’s current droplet. This change gives clients more control over what package to stage and when to stage it.

To reproduce the V2 start behavior in V3:

Start Diagram

  1. List packages and filter on package state with value READY and order by recency.
  2. If a package has been turned into a droplet (see this endpoint) this means it has been staged already. In V2 workflows, this would mean this package is what the current droplet is running.
  3. Stage the package by creating a build. This turns your package into a droplet.
  4. Update the app’s current droplet to the selected droplet. This droplet will be run when the app starts.
  5. Change the app’s state to started

This gives V3 users more flexibility when managing applications. The following diagram shows many different flows for starting an app.

Start Flow

Apps can upload multiple packages, stage multiple droplets, roll back to older droplets, and other complicated workflows.

Asynchronous Operations

Unlike V2, clients cannot opt-in for asynchronous responses from endpoints. Instead, endpoints that require asynchronous processing will return 202 Accepted with a Location header pointing to the job resource to poll. Endpoints that do not require asynchronous processing will respond synchronously.

For clients that want to report the outcome of an asynchronous operation, poll the job in the Location header until its state is no longer PROCESSING. If the job’s state is FAILED, the errors field will contain any errors that occurred during the operation.

An example of an asynchronous endpoint is the delete app endpoint.

Service related endpoints such as service instance, service credential binding and service route binding may create jobs that transition to state POLLING after PROCESSING. This state reflects the polling of the last operation from the service broker. For clients that want to report the outcome of this asynchronous operation, poll the job in the Location header until its state is no longer POLLING.

Read more about the job resource.

Errors

Example Request
curl "https://api.example.org/v2/apps/not-found" \
  -X GET \
  -H "Authorization: bearer [token]"
Example Response
HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Content-Type: application/json

{
   "description": "The app could not be found: not-found",
   "error_code": "CF-AppNotFound",
   "code": 100004
}
Example Request
curl "https://api.example.org/v3/apps/not-found" \
  -X GET \
  -H "Authorization: bearer [token]"
Example Response
HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Content-Type: application/json

{
   "errors": [
      {
         "detail": "App not found",
         "title": "CF-ResourceNotFound",
         "code": 10010
      }
   ]
}

The V3 API returns an array of errors instead of a single error like in V2.

Clients may wish to display all returned errors.

Filtering

Filters are specified as individual query parameters in V3
curl "https://api.example.org/v2/apps?q=name+IN+dora,broker;stack:cflinuxfs4" \
  -X GET \
  -H "Authorization: bearer [token]"
curl "https://api.example.org/v3/apps?names=dora,broker&stacks=cflinuxfs4" \
  -X GET \
  -H "Authorization: bearer [token]"

Filtering resources no longer uses V2’s query syntax. See the example to the right.

A few common filters have been also renamed in V3:

V2 filter V3 filter
results-per-page per_page
page page
order-by order_by
order-direction N/A1

1 In V3, order is ascending by default. Prefix the order_by value with - to make it descending. For example, ?order_by=-name would order a list of resources by name in descending order.

Filtering inequalities has changed in V3: V3 dispenses with the q= preamble, uses created_ats instead of timestamp and uses bracket operators ([lt], [gt], [lte], [gte]). For example, to request all audit events occurring on New Year’s Day, one would use the following query: GET /v3/audit_events?created_ats[lt]=2020-01-02T00:00:00Z&created_ats[gt]=2019-12-31T23:59:59Z.

The corresponding V2 query would be GET /v2/events?q=timestamp<2020-01-02T00:00:00Z&q=timestamp>2019-12-31T23:59:59Z.

Filtering on equality has also changed: V3 dispenses with the q= preamble and uses the pluralized field (e.g. names) on the left side of the equals sign. For filtering on inclusion in a set, V3 allows passing multiple values separated by commas.

For example, to request the organizations by their name (“finance” and “marketing”), one would use the following query: /v3/organizations?names=finance,marketing

The corresponding V2 query would be GET /v2/organizations?q=name%20IN%20finance,marketing

Read more about filtering in V3.

Including Associated Resources

The inline-relations-depth parameter is no longer supported on V3. Instead, some resources support the include parameter to selectively include associated resources in the response body.

For example, to include an app’s space in the response: cf curl /v3/apps/:guid?include=space

In addition, some resources provide the possibility of including specified fields of a related resource.

For example, to include the service broker name and guid in the service offering’s response: cf curl /v3/service_offerings/:guid?fields[service_broker]=name,guid

Read more about the include parameter and the fields parameter.

Resource Summaries

V2 provided several endpoints that returned rolled-up summaries (e.g. /v2/spaces/:guid/summary for a space summary, or /v2/organizations/:guid/summary for an organization summary). Although convenient, these endpoints have been largely removed from V3, for they were computationally expensive and often returned much more information than needed.

In V3, to enable better API performance, these usage patterns are deliberately disallowed. Instead, clients are encouraged to think more carefully about which information they need and to fetch that information with multiple API calls and/or by making use of the include parameter or the fields parameter on certain endpoints.

In V2, summary endpoints provided a way to fetch all resources associated with a parent resource. In V3, fetch the summary though the associated resource and filter by the parent resource. See below for examples of summaries in V3.

Replacing the space summary endpoint

Replacing the space summary response for service instances

Similar fields to what /v2/spaces/:guid/summary was offering for services are available from v3 endpoints.

The table below describes the query parameters needed to retrieve some of those fields using /v3/service_instances endpoint. Same query parameters are available on the request for a single resource.

V2 summary fields V3 query V3 response fields
services[].service_plan.guid fields[service_plan]=guid resources[].included.service_plans[].guid
services[].service_plan.name fields[service_plan]=name resources[].included.service_plans[].name
services[].service_plan.service.guid fields[service_plan.service_offering]=guid resources[].included.service_offerings[].guid
services[].service_plan.service.label fields[service_plan.service_offering]=name resources[].included.service_offerings[].name
services[].service_broker_name fields[service_plan.service_offering.service_broker]=name resources[].included.service_brokers[].name
shared_from.space_guid fields[space]=guid resources[].included.spaces[].guid
shared_from.space_name fields[space]=name resources[].included.spaces[].name
shared_from.organization_name fields[space.organization]=name resources[].included.organizations[].name

The table below describes the query parameters needed to retrieve the sharing information using /v3/service_instances/:guid/relationships/shared_spaces endpoint.

V2 summary fields V3 query V3 response fields
shared_to.space_guid fields[space]=guid included.spaces[].guid
shared_to.space_name fields[space]=name included.spaces[].name
shared_to.organization_name fields[space.organization]=name included.organizations[].name

The existing bound_app_count field can be found by using the usage summary endpoint

Read more about the fields parameter.

Replacing the user summary endpoint

Usage summary endpoints

There are still a couple of endpoints in V3 that provide a basic summary of instance and memory usage. See the org summary and platform summary endpoints.

New Concepts

Actions

Actions are API requests that are expected to immediately initiate change within the Cloud Foundry runtime. This is differentiated from requests which update a record but require additional updates, such as restarting an app, to cause changes to a resource to take effect.

Example: POST /v3/apps/:guid/actions/start

Example Request
curl "https://api.example.org/v3/apps/:guid" \
  -X GET \
  -H "Authorization: bearer [token]"
Example Response
{
  "...": "...",
  "links": {
    "self": {
      "href": "http://api.example.com/v3/apps/:guid"
    },
    "space": {
      "href": "http://api.example.com/v3/spaces/:space_guid"
    }
  }
}

Links provide URLs to associated resources, relationships, and actions for a resource. The example links to both the app itself and the space in which it resides.

Metadata

Example Request
curl "https://api.example.org/v3/:resource/:guid" \
  -X GET \
  -H "Authorization: bearer [token]"
Example Response
{
  "...": "...",
  "metadata": {
    "labels": {
      "environment": "production",
      "internet-facing": "false"
    },
    "annotations": {
      "contacts": "Bill tel(1111111) email(bill@fixme)"
    }
  }
}

Metadata allows you to tag and query certain API resources with information; metadata does not affect the resource’s functionality.

For more details and usage examples, see metadata or official CF docs.

Note that metadata consists of two keys, labels and annotations, each of which consists of key-value pairs. API V3 allows filtering by labels (see label_selector) but not by annotations.

Relationships

Example Request
curl "https://api.example.org/v3/apps" \
  -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: bearer [token]"
  -d '{
        "name": "testapp",
        "relationships": {
         "space": { "data": { "guid": "1234" }}
        }
      }'

Relationships represent associations between resources: For example, every space belongs in an organization, and every app belongs in a space. The V3 API can create, read, update, and delete these associations.

In the example request we create an app with a relationship to a specific space.

One can retrieve or update a resource’s relationships. For example, to retrieve an app’s relationship to its space with the /v3/apps/:app_guid/relationships/space endpoint.

For more information, refer to the relationships.

New Resources

The V3 API introduces new resources that are not available on the V2 API. Below are brief descriptions of these resources. This is not intended to be an exhaustive list and may not be updated as new resources are added to V3.

Note: Some of these resources may still be experimental and are subject to change or removal without warning. For up to date information on which resources are still experimental see Experimental Resources.

App Features

App features support enabling/disabling behaviors for an individual app.

Read more about the app feature resource.

Builds

Builds increase the flexibility and granularity of control available to clients crafting stagings workflows. For example:

Read more about the builds resource.

Deployments

Deployments are objects that manage updates to applications with zero downtime.

Read more about the deployments resource.

Isolation Segments

Isolation segments provide dedicated pools of resources to which apps can be deployed to isolate workloads.

Read more about the isolation segment resource.

Manifests

Manifests are a method for providing bulk configuration to applications and other resources.

Read more about the manifest resource.

Revisions

Revisions represent code and configuration used by an application at a specific time. The most recent revision for a running application represents the code and configuration currently running in Cloud Foundry.

Read more about the revision resource.

Service Route Bindings

There is a new resource service route binding that represents a binding between a route and a service instance.

Creation/Deletion of these bindings is therefore done via that endpoint in v3.

This resource also supports metadata both in create and update requests. Audit event of type audit.service_route_binding.update is recorded when metadata update is requested.

It has a nested resource for fetching binding parameters from the broker. Parameters are only set during creation.

Read more about the service route binding resource.

Sidecars

Sidecars are additional programs that are run in the same container as a process.

Read more about the sidecar resource.

Tasks

Tasks are one-off jobs that are intended to execute a droplet, stop, and be cleaned up, freeing up resources.

Examples of this include database migrations and running batch jobs.

Read more about the task resource.

Changed Resources

This table shows how V2 resources map to their respective V3 counterparts. Note that some V2 resources have split into multiple V3 resources, and some V2 resources have been combined into a single resource on V3. As these resources are currently under active development, these mappings may change.

Audit Events in V3

In V2, these were called “events” (e.g. /v2/events). In V3, we adopt the term “audit events” to better distinguish them from usage events.

V2 audit events contained information about the “actee” (the resource that the event affected). V3 audit events refer to the affected resource as the “target”.

V2 audit events had a timestamp field. In V3, this field has been renamed to created_at for consistency with other resources. The value is the same.

In general, V3 audit events contain all of the same information that they contained in V2, but the JSON is structured a little differently. In particular:

V3 endpoints attempt to report audit events in the same way as V2 endpoints did. A notable case where this was not possible is for the audit.app.restage event. Read more about restaging in V3.

Read more about the audit event resource.

Domains in V3

In V2, there were two types of domains exposed via different endpoints: private domains and shared domains.

In V3, there is only one domain resource. A domain is “private” if it has an “owning organization”, which is the organization in which the domain is accessible. This is represented as a relationship to this organization. A domain is “shared” if it doesn’t have this relationship.

Read more about the domain resource.

Info in V3

In V2, /v2/info provides descriptive information about the system and endpoints to external APIs.

In V3, /v3/info only provides descriptive information about the system.

To access the external APIs in V3, use the root (/).

Organization Quotas in V3

In V2, -1 represented an unlimited value for a quota limit.

In V3, null is used to represent an unlimited value.

The names of the limit fields have changed from V2 to V3.

V2 V3
non_basic_services_allowed services.paid_services_allowed
total_services services.total_service_instances
total_service_keys services.total_service_keys
total_routes routes.total_routes
total_reserved_route_ports routes.total_reserved_ports
total_private_domains domains.total_domains
memory_limit apps.total_memory_in_mb
instance_memory_limit apps.per_process_memory_in_mb
app_instance_limit apps.total_instances
app_task_limit apps.per_app_tasks

Read more about the organization quota resource.

Routes in V3

In V2, the route resource represented a URL that could be mapped to an app, and the route mapping resource represented a mapping between a route and an app.

In V3, these concepts have been collapsed into a single route resource. Now, a route can have one or more “destinations” listed on it. These represent a mapping from the route to a resource that can serve traffic (e.g. a process of an app).

Read more about routes, destinations, and ports.

Security Groups in V3

In V2, security groups which apply to all spaces in a Cloud Foundry deployment are termed “default”, as in “default for running apps” and “default for staging apps”. For example, to apply a default security group to all apps in the running lifecycle, one would PUT /v2/config/running_security_groups/:guid

In V3, security groups which apply to all spaces in a Cloud Foundry deployment are termed “global”, as in “globally-enabled running apps” and “globally-enabled staging apps.” For example, to apply a security group globally to all apps in the running lifecycle, one would PATCH /v3/security_groups/:guid with a body specifying the globally_enabled key. See here for an example.

In V2, on creation, one can specify the spaces to which the security group applies, but not whether it applies globally (by default). To set the group globally to all spaces in the foundation one would PUT /v2/config/running_security_groups/43e0441d-c9c1-4250-b8d5-7fb624379e02.

In V3, on creation, one can both specify the spaces to which it applies and also whether it applies globally (to staging and/or running) by specifying the globally_enabled key. See here for more information.

In V2, the endpoint to apply a security group to a space only includes the lifecycle (“running” or “staging”) explicitly when applying to “staging” (“running” is the default lifecycle). For example, to unbind a security group from the running lifecycle, one would DELETE /v2/security_groups/:guid/spaces/:space_guid, from the staging lifecycle, DELETE /v2/security_groups/:guid/staging_spaces/:space_guid.

In V3, the endpoint to apply a security group to a space includes the lifecycle. For example to unbind a security group from the running lifecycle, one would DELETE /v3/security_groups/:guid/relationships/running_spaces/:space_guid.

Service Brokers in V3

Create, Update and Delete

In V3 these endpoints are now asynchronous. See asynchronous operations and service broker jobs for more information.

Read more about the service broker resource.

Service Instances in V3

Combining managed and user-provided service instances

In v2, two different endpoints /v2/service_instances and /v2/user_provided_service_instances were used to perform operations on service instances according to their types.

In v3, all service instance operations are performed using the service instance resource, regardless of the type. Service instances can be of type managed when it is an instantiation of a service offering registered with CF or user-provided when it describes an instance of an offering that is not registered with CF. The type filter can be used to separately list each type.

The required parameters when creating and updating a service instance are different for each type as defined in their respective documentation.

Object

The structure of the service instances object as well as some attribute names have changed from V2 to V3. Each service instance type has type specific fields. Certain fields are omitted when they do not apply to the type of the service instance.

V2 V3
type valid values managed_service_instance and user_provided_service_instance type valid values managed and user-provided
entity.service_plan_guid relationships.service_plan.data.guid
entity.space_guid relationships.space.data.guid

User provided service instance credentials

The credentials field for user provided service instances is not included in the response object of service_instances. /v3/service_instances/:guid/credentials can be used to retrieve the credentials.

Read more about the service instance credential.

Response mode

When operating on service instances of type user-provided the API will respond synchronously for all operations.

When the service instance type is managed the API will respond asynchronously and the operation might include communicating to the service broker. Read more about async responses here.

Listing bindings

In v2, there were specific endpoints /v2/service_instances/:guid/service_bindings, /v2/service_instances/:guid/service_keys and /v2/user_provided_service_instances/:guid/service_bindings to retrieve the service bindings and service keys for managed and user-provided service instances.

In v3, the service credential bindings can be filtered by service_instance_guids to retrieve the bindings of any service instance.

Service instance route bindings

In v2, binding a service instance to a route was done as a relationship request for the service instance.

In v3, there is a new resource service route binding that represents a binding between a route and a service instance. Creation and deletion of route bindings is therefore done via that endpoint in v3.

Audit events for route bindings have changed as follows:

V2 V3
audit.service_instance.bind_route audit.service_route_binding.start_create (async only)
audit.service_route_binding.create
audit.service_instance.unbind_route audit.service_route_binding.start_delete (async only)
audit.service_route_binding.delete

Read more about the service instance resource.

Service Bindings in V3

Combining service bindings and service keys

In v2, two different endpoints /v2/service_bindings and /v2/service_keys were used to perform bindings operations for service instances.

In v3, all service bindings that are not route bindings are performed using the service credential bindings resource. Service credential bindings can be of type app when it is a binding between a service instance and an application or key when it only retrieves the credentials of the service instance. The type filter can be used to list separately each type.

The required parameters when creating a service credential binding are different for each type as defined in the documentation.

Object

The structure of the service credential binding object follows V3 pattern. If the type is app the object will contain a relationship to the app.

Retrieving service credential bindings details

The credentials, syslog_drain_url and volume_mounts fields for service credential bindings are not included in the response object of service credential bindings. /v3/service_credential_bindings/:guid/details can be used to retrieve the credentials.

Read more about the service credential binding details.

Service key operations

In v2, all service keys operations were synchronous.

In v3, all service credential bindings, including those of type key are asynchronous if possible.

Response mode

When operating on service credential bindings of user-provided service instances the API will respond synchronously for all operations.

When operating on service credential bindings of managed service instances the API will respond asynchronously and the operation might include communicating to the service broker. Read more about async responses here.

Audit events

Audit events of type audit.service_key.start_create and audit.service_key.start_delete have been added to track when an async create or delete key service credential binding operation has started.

Audit events of type audit.service_binding.update and audit.service_key.update are recorded when metadata update is requested.

Read more about the service credential binding resource.

Service Offerings in V3

Services resource is now replaced by service offerings resource at /v3/service_offerings

Some services related endpoints nested in other resources have been translated to filters on service_offerings, with the advantage that filters accept multiple values and can be combined.

GET /v2/organizations/:guid/services is now GET /v3/service_offerings?organization_guids=guid.

GET /v2/spaces/:guid/services is now GET /v3/service_offerings?space_guids=guid

GET /v2/services/:guid/service_plans is now a filter on the service plan resource: GET /v3/service_plans?service_offering_guids=guid. This link can also be found in the object’s links section.

In V2, service_broker_name was returned in the response. V3 returns this value only if requested using the fields syntax. Refer to service offerings resource for further information. A link to the Service Broker resource is included in the object’s links section.

The structure of the service offering object as well as some attribute names have changed from V2 to V3:

V2 V3
label name
active available
bindable broker_catalog.features.bindable
extra shareable, broker_catalog.metadata
unique_id broker_catalog.id
plan_updateable broker_catalog.features.plan_updateable
instances_retrievable broker_catalog.features.instances_retrievable
bindings_retrievable broker_catalog.features.bindings_retrievable
service_broker_guid relationships.service_broker.data.guid

Read more about the service offering resource.

Service Plans in V3

Some service plans related endpoints nested in other resources have been translated to filters on service plans, with the advantage that filters accept multiple values and can be combined.

GET /v2/services/:guid/service_plans -> GET /v3/service_plans?service_offering_guids=guid

Changing plan visibility to Public is not a PUT operation anymore. To change visibility use the service plan visibility resource

The structure of the service plan object as well as some attribute names have changed from V2 to V3:

V2 V3
active available
bindable broker_catalog.features.bindable
extra broker_catalog.metadata
public visibility_type == 'public' (see visibility types)
unique_id broker_catalog.id
plan_updateable broker_catalog.features.plan_updateable
service_instances_url use service_plan_guids or service_plan_names filter on service instances resource
service_url links.service_offering.href
service_guid relationships.service_offering.data.guid

Some filters were renamed and changed to accept a list of values:

V2 V3
service_guid service_offering_guids
service_instance_guid service_instance_guids
service_broker_guid service_broker_guids
unique_id broker_catalog_ids

Read more about the service plan resource.

Service Plan Visibility in V3

v2/service_plan_visibilities has been replaced in v3 with a nested resource v3/service_plans/:guid/visibility

This new resource has a type, and can have a list of organizations a space or be of type public

Read more about the service plan visibility resource.

Space Quotas in V3

In V2, -1 represented an unlimited value for a quota limit.

In V3, null is used to represent an unlimited value.

The names of the limit fields have changed from V2 to V3.

V2 V3
non_basic_services_allowed services.paid_services_allowed
total_services services.total_service_instances
total_service_keys services.total_service_keys
total_routes routes.total_routes
total_reserved_route_ports routes.total_reserved_ports
memory_limit apps.total_memory_in_mb
instance_memory_limit apps.per_process_memory_in_mb
app_instance_limit apps.total_instances
app_task_limit apps.per_app_tasks

Read more about the space quota resource.

Usage Events in V3

This section covers changes in both app usage events and service usage events.

The V2 service_guid field for service usage events is now renamed to service_offering.guid.

The V2 service_label field for service usage events is now renamed to service_offering.label.

The V2 app_guid field for app usage events is now renamed to process.guid.

The V2 experimental field parent_app_guid for app usage events was used to identify a backing V3 app if present. In V3, this field has been renamed to app.guid and is no longer experimental.

Users and Roles in V3

The user resource remains largely unchanged from the v2 API. On v2, GET /v2/users was restricted to admins, and other users needed to use nested endpoints (GET /v2/organizations/:guid/user and GET /v2/spaces/:guid/user) to view user resources. On v3, those nested endpoints are carried over, but GET /v3/users is now available for all users in a similar way to other resources. Note that this does not change what user resources are visible.

In v2, roles were modeled as associations between organization and space endpoints. In V3, roles have a dedicated resource: /v3/roles. This has changed the manner in which roles are assigned. For example, in V2, to assign a user the org_manager role, one would PUT /v2/organizations/:org_guid/managers/:user_id. In V3, one would POST /v3/roles with the role type and relationships to the user and organization.

In v2, when an Org Manager gives a person an Org or Space role, that person automatically receives Org User status in that org. This is no longer the case in the v3 API.

Read more about users and roles.

Deprecated Endpoints

The specialized /v2/apps/:guid/restage endpoint is replaced by the builds resource. Builds allow finer-grained control and increased flexibility when staging packages into droplets. The V3 API avoids making assumptions about which package/droplet to use when staging or running an app and thus leaves it up to clients.

Restage

The specialized /v2/apps/:guid/restage endpoint is replaced by the builds resource. Builds allow finer-grained control and increased flexibility when staging packages into droplets. The V3 API avoids making assumptions about which package/droplet to use when staging or running an app and thus leaves it up to clients.

Replicating Restage

  1. Get newest READY package for an app:

    GET /v3/packages?app_guids=:app-guid&order_by=-created_at&states=READY

  2. Stage the package:

    POST /v3/build

  3. Poll build until the state is STAGED:

    GET /v3/builds/build-guid

  4. Stop the app:

    POST /v3/apps/:guid/actions/stop

  5. Set the app’s current droplet to the build’s resulting droplet:

    PATCH /v3/apps/:guid/relationships/current_droplet

  6. Start app:

    POST /v3/apps/:guid/actions/start

For a zero-downtime restage, you may wish to use deployments instead of stopping and starting the app.

Restage Event

Since the V3 API has no concept of a “restage”, the audit.app.restage audit event is no longer reported. Instead, the following events can be tracked:

Audit Event Description
audit.build.create A build is created (staging is initiated)
audit.droplet.create A droplet is created (staging finishes successfully)
audit.app.stop Stopping an app is initiated
audit.app.droplet.mapped A droplet is set as the current droplet for an app
audit.app.start Starting an app is initiated
audit.app.deployment.create A deployment is initialized
