Base URL
https://api.elastic-cloud.com

This API enables you to use Elastic Cloud services in your ECE, ECK, or self-managed cluster without having to install and maintain their infrastructure yourself.

You can create, update, and manage Cloud Connected clusters and their services.

API principles

The Elastic Cloud Connected REST API is built following REST principles:

  • Resources (such as clusters) are represented as URIs.
  • Standard HTTP response codes and verbs are used (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH and DELETE).
  • API calls are stateless. Every request that you make happens in isolation from other calls and must include all the information necessary to fulfill the request.
  • JSON is the data interchange format.

OpenAPI Specification

The API is documented using the OpenAPI Specification. The current supported version of the specification is 3.0. For details, check the API reference or download the OpenAPI Specification. This specification can be used to generate client SDKs, or on tools that support it, such as the Swagger Editor.
