GET

/v1/dataset

List datasets

List out all datasets. The datasets are sorted by creation date, with the most recently-created datasets coming first

Most Braintrust endpoints are authenticated by providing your API key as a header Authorization: Bearer [api_key] to your HTTP request. You can create an API key in the Braintrust organization settings page.

Query Parameters

`limit`integer

Limit the number of objects to return

Minimum: 0

`starting_after`string

Pagination cursor id.

For example, if the final item in the last page you fetched had an id of foo, pass starting_after=foo to fetch the next page. Note: you may only pass one of starting_after and ending_before

Format: "uuid"

`ending_before`string

Pagination cursor id.

For example, if the initial item in the last page you fetched had an id of foo, pass ending_before=foo to fetch the previous page. Note: you may only pass one of starting_after and ending_before

Format: "uuid"

`ids`Any properties in string, array<string>

Filter search results to a particular set of object IDs. To specify a list of IDs, include the query param multiple times

`dataset_name`string

Name of the dataset to search for

`project_name`string

Name of the project to search for

`project_id`string

Project id

GET

/v1/dataset/{dataset_id}/fetch

Fetch dataset (GET form)

Fetch the events in a dataset. Equivalent to the POST form of the same path, but with the parameters in the URL query rather than in the request body

Authorization

`Authorization`
Required
Bearer <token>

Most Braintrust endpoints are authenticated by providing your API key as a header Authorization: Bearer [api_key] to your HTTP request. You can create an API key in the Braintrust organization settings page.

In: header

Path Parameters

`dataset_id`
Required
string

Dataset id

Format: "uuid"

Query Parameters

`limit`integer

limit the number of traces fetched

Fetch queries may be paginated if the total result size is expected to be large (e.g. project_logs which accumulate over a long time). Note that fetch queries only support pagination in descending time order (from latest to earliest _xact_id. Furthermore, later pages may return rows which showed up in earlier pages, except with an earlier _xact_id. This happens because pagination occurs over the whole version history of the event log. You will most likely want to exclude any such duplicate, outdated rows (by id) from your combined result set.

The limit parameter controls the number of full traces to return. So you may end up with more individual rows than the specified limit if you are fetching events containing traces.

Minimum: 0

`max_xact_id`string

DEPRECATION NOTICE: The manually-constructed pagination cursor is deprecated in favor of the explicit 'cursor' returned by object fetch requests. Please prefer the 'cursor' argument going forwards.

Together, max_xact_id and max_root_span_id form a pagination cursor

Since a paginated fetch query returns results in order from latest to earliest, the cursor for the next page can be found as the row with the minimum (earliest) value of the tuple (_xact_id, root_span_id). See the documentation of limit for an overview of paginating fetch queries.

`max_root_span_id`string

DEPRECATION NOTICE: The manually-constructed pagination cursor is deprecated in favor of the explicit 'cursor' returned by object fetch requests. Please prefer the 'cursor' argument going forwards.

Together, max_xact_id and max_root_span_id form a pagination cursor

Since a paginated fetch query returns results in order from latest to earliest, the cursor for the next page can be found as the row with the minimum (earliest) value of the tuple (_xact_id, root_span_id). See the documentation of limit for an overview of paginating fetch queries.

`version`string

Retrieve a snapshot of events from a past time

The version id is essentially a filter on the latest event transaction id. You can use the max_xact_id returned by a past fetch as the version to reproduce that exact fetch.

Status code	Description
`200`	Returns the fetched rows
`400`	The request was unacceptable, often due to missing a required parameter
`401`	No valid API key provided

Filters for the fetch query

`limit`integer | null

limit the number of traces fetched

Minimum: 0

`cursor`string | null

An opaque string to be used as a cursor for the next page of results, in order from latest to earliest.

The string can be obtained directly from the cursor property of the previous fetch query

`max_xact_id`string | null

DEPRECATION NOTICE: The manually-constructed pagination cursor is deprecated in favor of the explicit 'cursor' returned by object fetch requests. Please prefer the 'cursor' argument going forwards.

`filters`array<object> | null

NOTE: This parameter is deprecated and will be removed in a future revision. Consider using the /btql endpoint (https://www.braintrust.dev/docs/reference/btql) for more advanced filtering.

A list of filters on the events to fetch. Currently, only path-lookup type filters are supported.

`version`string | null

Retrieve a snapshot of events from a past time

The version id is essentially a filter on the latest event transaction id. You can use the max_xact_id returned by a past fetch as the version to reproduce that exact fetch.
