Introduction

Overview

Welcome to the Cloud Foundry V3 API docs! Version 3 will add 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 datetime The ISO8601 compatible date and time when resource was created.
updated_at datetime 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": "GET"
}
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 OAuth2 Token with User Roles that are managed by the API.

OAuth2 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 Foundry user roles

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 a 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

Errors

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

An error response will always return a list of error objects in the errors field.

The error object

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

Filters

Endpoints which return lists of resources also support filtering the returned resources using query parameters. The available filter parameters are described in a resource’s “list” endpoint in the section “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.

Multiple value request #2

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=cflinuxfs3

This will return all apps with name the_name AND stack cflinuxfs3.

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?paths=pepper,,tabi

This will return all routes with path "pepper", "" OR "tabi".

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
routes/[:guid] domain
spaces organization
spaces/[:guid] organization

}

Lifecycles

Lifecycles inform the platform of how to build droplets and run apps. For example the buildpack lifecycle will use a droplet and a rootfs to run the app, while 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.
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": "cflinuxfs3"
  }
}

This is the default lifecycle for Cloud Foundry. 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.

Buildpack lifecycle object

Name Type Description
type string buildpack
data.buildpacks array of strings A list of the names of buildpacks, URLs from which they may be downloaded, or null to auto-detect a suitable buildpack.
data.stack string The root filesystem to use with the buildpack, for example cflinuxfs3

Docker lifecycle

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

This allows Cloud Foundry to run 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.

Examples may include (but are not limited to):

Annotation key

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.

A annotation key prefix must adhere to the following restrictions:

A annotation key name must adhere to the following restrictions:

Annotation value

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 false.

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.

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.

Relationships

Relationships represent associations between resources. They can be used to create, read, update, and delete these associations. For example, an app has a relationship to a space (every app belongs in one space); a space has a relationship with an organization (every space belongs in one organization).

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 listed below. See the docs for each resource to see how it interacts with its relationships.

Many endpoints return the status of its relationships. For example, GET /v3/spaces/:guid returns a JSON response with a relationships key with the GUID of the organization to which the space belongs.

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.
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.

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.

The buildpack object

Example Buildpack object

          "method": "POST"
      }
    }
  }

Name Type Description

Deployments

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

They can either:

It is possible to use rolling deployments for applications without incurring downtime. This is different from the traditional method of pushing app updates which performs start/stop deployments.

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.

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
name string The name of the group. Can only be running or staging.
updated_at string The time of last update.
var object Environment variables to inject. Keys and values must be strings.
links links object Links to related resources.

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

Permitted roles

All Roles

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.

Definition

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 datetime The time with zone when the object was created.
updated_at datetime The time with zone when the object was last updated.
host string The hostname for the route.
Must be under 63 character long and only contain letters, numbers, dashes (-) or underscores(_).
path string The path for the route.
Must be under 128 character long and not contain question marks (?), begin with a slash (/) and not be exactly a slash (/). Must conform to path components from RFC 2396.
url string The URL for the route. Combination of host, domain name, and path.
destinations array of destination objects List of destinations for the route.
space to-one relationship A relationship to the space containing the route. Routes can only be mapped to destinations in that space.
domain to-one relationship A relationship to the domain of the route.
links links object Links to related resources.
metadata.labels (experimental) label object Labels applied to the route.
metadata.annotations (experimental) annotation object Annotations 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
}

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.

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

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.

App-level configuration

This configuration is specified at the top-level and applies to all of the app’s processes.

Field Description
buildpacks Must be an Array.
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.
env A key-value hash of environment variables to be used for the app when running.
no-route Boolean value. When set to true, any routes specified with the routes attribute will be ignored and any existing routes will be removed; ignored if false.
processes List of configurations for individual process types. See Process-level configuration.
random-route Boolean value. Creates a random route for the app if true; ignored if false, if routes is specified, if the app already has routes, or if no-route is specified.
default-route Boolean value. 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 false, if routes is specified, if the app already has routes, or if no-route is specified, this field is ignored and results in noop.
routes An array of route hashes declaring HTTP and TCP routes to be mapped to the app. Each route is created if it does not already exist. Example route hash entry: - route: www.example.com/path
services An array of service-instances to bind to the app. See Service-level configuration.
sidecars An array of configurations for individual sidecars. See Sidecar-level configuration.
stack The root filesystem to use with the buildpack, for example cflinuxfs3.
metadata.labels (experimental) Labels applied to the app.

buildpack DEPRECATED in favor of the buildpacks field above.
a) Blank OR default OR null will automatically select the appropriate default buildpack according to the coding language.
b) A URL pointing to a buildpack.
c) Name of an installed buildpack.

Process-level configuration

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

With the exception of type, process-level fields can also be provided at the top-level and will apply to the web process only.

If there is a process with type: web defined in the processes section, then all top level process configuration will be ignored.

Field Description
type (Required) Process type. The identifier for the processes to be configured.
command The command used to start the process. This overrides start commands from Procfiles and buildpacks.
disk_quota 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 Endpoint called to determine if the app is healthy.
health-check-invocation-timeout The timeout in seconds for individual health check requests for http and port health checks.
health-check-type Type of health check to perform. none is deprecated and an alias to process.
instances The number of instances to run.
memory 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.
timeout Time in seconds at which the health-check will report failure.

Service-level configuration

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.

Field Description
name (Required) Service instance name. The name of the service instance to be bound to.
parameters 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.

Field Description
name (Required) Sidecar name. The identifier for the sidecars to be configured.
command The command used to start the sidecar.
process_types List of processes to associate sidecar with.
memory Memory in mb that the sidecar will be allocated.

Organization Quotas

Organization quotas are named sets of memory, 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.

Service Bindings

Service bindings are relations between a service instance and an app; to use a service instance with an app, you must first bind them together.

Not all services support binding, as some services deliver value to users directly without integration with an application.

The service binding object

Example Service Binding object

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 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.

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 an app 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-level configuration

Field Description
applications An array of App configurations

App-level configuration

This configuration is specified at the top-level and applies to all of the app’s processes.

Field Description
buildpacks Must be an Array.
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 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 A key-value hash of environment variables to be used for the app when running.
no-route Boolean value. When set to true, any routes specified with the routes attribute will be ignored and any existing routes will be removed; ignored if false.
processes List of configurations for individual process types. See Process-level configuration.
random-route Boolean value. Creates a random route for the app if true; ignored if false, if routes is specified, if the app already has routes, or if no-route is specified.
default-route Boolean value. 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 false, if routes is specified, if the app already has routes, or if no-route is specified, this field is ignored and results in noop.
routes An array of route hashes declaring HTTP and TCP routes to be mapped to the app. Each route is created if it does not already exist. Example route hash entry: - route: www.example.com/path
services An array of service-instances to bind to the app. See Service-level configuration.
sidecars An array of configurations for individual sidecars. See Sidecar-level configuration.
stack The root filesystem to use with the buildpack, for example cflinuxfs3.
metadata.labels (experimental) Labels applied to the app.
metadata.annotations (experimental) Annotations applied to the app.
buildpack DEPRECATED in favor of the buildpacks field above.
a) Blank OR default OR null will automatically select the appropriate default buildpack according to the coding language.
b) A URL pointing to a buildpack.
c) Name of an installed buildpack.

Process-level configuration

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

With the exception of type, process-level fields can also be provided at the top-level and will apply to the web process only.

If there is a process with type: web defined in the processes section, then all top level process configuration will be ignored.

Field Description
type (Required) Process type. The identifier for the processes to be configured.
command The command used to start the process. This overrides start commands from Procfiles and buildpacks.
disk_quota 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 Endpoint called to determine if the app is healthy.
health-check-invocation-timeout The timeout in seconds for individual health check requests for http and port health checks.
health-check-type Type of health check to perform. none is deprecated and an alias to process.
instances The number of instances to run.
memory 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.
timeout Time in seconds at which the health-check will report failure.

Service-level configuration

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.

Field Description
name (Required) Service instance name. The name of the service instance to be bound to.
parameters 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.

Field Description
name (Required) Sidecar name. The identifier for the sidecars to be configured.
command The command used to start the sidecar.
process_types List of processes to associate sidecar with.
memory Memory in mb that the sidecar will be allocated.

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.

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 data as the V2 API. Though resources may be presented differently and have different interaction patterns, the internal state of CF will be the same across both APIs.

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

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.

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 “shared” 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 “private” if it doesn’t have this relationship.

Read more about the domain 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 and destinations.

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, GET /v3/users is now available for all users, similar 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.

Read more about users and roles.

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, scale, and stats
  3. An application might not be running with its most recent package or droplet

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, the expected pattern is to 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.

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:cflinuxfs3" \
  -X GET \
  -H "Authorization: bearer [token]"
curl "https://api.example.org/v3/apps?names=dora,broker&stacks=cflinuxfs3" \
  -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.

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

Read more about the include parameter.

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.

Deployments

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

Read more about the deployment 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 in a space.

Read more about the app manifest and space manifest resources.

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.

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.
