title: GrowthBook REST API
description: >
GrowthBook offers a full REST API for interacting with the application.
Request data can use either JSON or Form data encoding (with proper
`Content-Type` headers). All response bodies are JSON-encoded.
The API base URL for GrowthBook Cloud is `https://api.growthbook.io/api`.
For self-hosted deployments, it is the same as your API_HOST environment
variable (defaults to `http://localhost:3100/api`). The rest of these docs
will assume you are using GrowthBook Cloud.
## Versioning
Endpoints are versioned by path prefix:
- `/v1/...` — stable, widely-supported endpoints
- `/v2/...` — updated endpoints with improved shapes (e.g. unified per-rule
environment scope for feature flags)
New integrations should prefer v2 where available. Feature-flag and metric
v1 routes are deprecated: they are tagged **LEGACY** in the sidebar and
collapsed by default. Use the matching v2 group when both exist.
## Authentication
We support both the HTTP Basic and Bearer authentication schemes for
convenience.
You first need to generate a new API Key in GrowthBook. Different keys have
different permissions:
- **Personal Access Tokens**: These are sensitive and provide the same level
of access as the user has to an organization, or less if the token's
permissions are limited. These can be created by going to `Personal Access
Tokens` under your user menu. Members with the API Keys **Manage members'
tokens** permission can disable a member's token under `Settings -> Manage
PATs`, and admins can require new tokens to expire within a maximum
lifetime.
- **Secret Keys**: These are sensitive and provide the level of access of
the role they are given, which can be any built-in or custom role, with
optional per-project role overrides and environment limits. Managing Secret
Keys on behalf of an organization takes the [API Keys
permissions](/account/user-permissions). These can be created by going to
`Settings -> API Keys`, where Admins can also require new Secret Keys to
expire within a maximum lifetime.
If using HTTP Basic auth, pass the Secret Key as the username and leave the
password blank (when using curl, add `:` at the end of the secret to
indicate an empty password)
```bash
curl https://api.growthbook.io/api/v1/features \
-u secret_abc123DEF456:
```
If using Bearer auth, pass the Secret Key as the token:
```bash
curl https://api.growthbook.io/api/v1/features \
-H "Authorization: Bearer secret_abc123DEF456"
```
If a key has an expiration date, every response includes it in the
`X-GrowthBook-Key-Expires-At` header (ISO 8601), so scripts can warn before
the key stops working. Requests made with an expired key fail with a `401`
that says where to create a replacement. See
[Expiration](/integrations/ai-agents/api-keys#expiration) for choosing a
key's expiration, the warnings before it lapses, and the organization
policies.
## Naming who asked
Requests made with a Secret Key may add an `X-GrowthBook-Requested-By`
header naming the organization member who asked for the change, as a user id
or an email address. History, revision logs and webhooks show that member
next to the key.
Each key acts as **System** (the default) or **User**, set under `Settings
-> API Keys`:
- **System**: the header is optional. The key acts as itself, with its own
permissions, and the named member is only recorded in history.
- **User**: a request without the header is rejected with a 400. The request
acts as the named member, with only what both the key and the member can do,
so the header can narrow a key but never widen it. Drafts, owners, `mine`
filters and reviews are the member's. The member's rights over their own
drafts, comments and verdicts apply only where the key's own role allows the
same action.
A System key, or any key that names no one, acts as itself: it can draft and
review with its own permissions, and its verdicts are judged on its role. A
key belongs to no team, so its approval never satisfies a rule that requires
approval from a team. No one can rule on a draft they created, and a key
acting as itself can't rule on a draft it created or edited. An approval a
User key gives counts only where both the key and the member could approve,
and stops counting if the key is disabled, expires or is deleted. Because
the header isn't verified, whoever holds the key can act as any member. A
value that does not match a member of the organization is rejected with a
400. A create request that omits `owner` defaults it to the member a User
key names. Scheduled and auto-publishes run later with the permissions of
the request that armed them, and don't run if that member has left the
organization, the key has expired, or the key no longer acts as User.
Personal Access Tokens and OAuth tokens already act as their user and reject
the header.
```bash
curl https://api.growthbook.io/api/v1/features \
-H "Authorization: Bearer secret_abc123DEF456" \
-H "X-GrowthBook-Requested-By: alice@example.com"
```
## Naming and human review
People review what the API creates in the GrowthBook UI.
- Keep keys and names short (2-5 words). Follow your organization's Feature
Flag key format (`featureRegexValidator` and `featureKeyExample` in `GET
/v1/settings`), or use kebab-case if it has none. Feature Flag keys can't be
changed after creation, and an experiment's tracking key shouldn't change
after launch.
- Put context (why, plan, tickets, links) in `description`, not in names or
keys.
- Group with `tags`, not name prefixes. Projects (`project` or `projects`)
control access and where a resource can be used, so set them deliberately
instead of using them as labels.
- To create a Feature Flag disabled with `POST /v2/features`, list every
environment in `environments` with `enabled: false` (on `POST /v1/features`,
each entry also needs `rules: []`). An environment you leave out uses its
default state, which may be enabled.
- Leave publishing and production changes to a person unless asked.
- If a request is blocked (an approval requirement, a warning, a Custom
Hook, schema validation or a permission error), stop and ask a person. Don't
retry with an override field, a different key or another workaround unless a
person asked you to. If a write answers `202` with a `confirmation`, give a
person its `url` and wait (see [Waiting for
confirmation](#waiting-for-confirmation)).
## Waiting for confirmation
A key can require a person to confirm some writes before they run (see [API
Keys for Agents](/integrations/ai-agents/api-keys#require-confirmation)). A
held write doesn't run. It answers `202 Accepted` with the confirmation, a
`Location` header to poll, and a `Retry-After` header with the seconds to
wait between polls:
```json
{
"confirmation": {
"id": "cnf_abc123",
"status": "pending",
"actions": [
{ "action": "feature.publish", "environments": ["production"] }
],
"summary": "Publish revision 3 of checkout-redesign",
"url": "https://app.growthbook.io/confirmations/cnf_abc123",
"expiresAt": "2026-10-15T18:00:00.000Z",
"response": null,
"note": null
},
"message": "A person must confirm this in GrowthBook. Give them the url, then poll the Location."
}
```
Give the person the `url`, then poll [`GET
/v1/confirmations/{id}`](/api/meta/operation/getConfirmation). Pass `wait`
(in seconds, up to 30) to hold the poll open until the status changes:
```bash
curl "https://api.growthbook.io/api/v1/confirmations/cnf_abc123?wait=30" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer secret_abc123DEF456"
```
| `status` |
Meaning
|
| ----------- |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| `pending` | Waiting for a person, until `expiresAt` (an hour after the
request) |
| `running` | Confirmed, and running
now
|
| `completed` | It ran. `response` holds the status and body the request
returned, which may be an error |
| `rejected` | A person declined it, and nothing
ran
|
| `expired` | Nobody decided in time, or it acts on something that changed
after it was held (with a `400` `response`). Nothing ran |
`note` carries anything the person left for the agent when they decided.
`actions` lists what the request was held for, each with the environments it
touches.
- Only the key that made the request, or another token of the same person,
can read the confirmation.
- Sending the same request again while it's pending returns the same
confirmation.
- A request that publishes, reverts or archives, or that changes a Feature
Flag or an Experiment's status, schedule, targeting or traffic, isn't run if
what it acts on changed after it was held. Other writes, such as editing
settings or a draft, run as sent, so they can overwrite changes made while
they waited.
- A confirmed request runs once, with the key's permissions (or the member's
role it assumes), not the confirmer's. Send it again to retry, which asks
for a new confirmation.
- Confirming isn't a review approval.
## Errors
The API may return the following error status codes:
- **400** - Bad Request - Often due to a missing required parameter
- **401** - Unauthorized - No valid API key provided
- **402** - Request Failed - The parameters are valid, but the request
failed
- **403** - Forbidden - Provided API key does not have the required access
- **404** - Not Found - Unknown API route or requested resource
- **422** - Unprocessable Entity - The request is valid, but a warning,
validation rule, approval requirement, or another publishing gate blocked
it. Do not assume that `ignoreWarnings` clears every 422 response.
- **429** - Too Many Requests - You exceeded the rate limit of 60 requests
per minute, or the limit your self-hosted server sets. Try again later.
- **5XX** - Server Error - Something went wrong on GrowthBook's end (these
are rare)
The response body will be a JSON object with the following properties:
- **message** - Information about the error
### Publishing gates
Automated callers, including AI agents, should report a blocked response to
a person instead of retrying with an override. Use an override only when a
person has explicitly asked for it.
Publish responses include a `gates` array that explains every blocker:
- `type`, `severity`, and `messages` identify the problem.
- `override` names the request-body field that can bypass it. This is
`ignoreWarnings` for warnings, `skipSchemaValidation` for schema and
invariant failures, or `skipHooks` for Custom Hook rejections. A value of
`null` means there is no request-body override.
- `requiresPermission` identifies any additional permission needed to use
the override.
- `resolution` provides an API action, method, and path when the blocker
must be resolved another way.
For example, an approval gate is cleared by approving the revision or by
using a caller with **Bypass draft approvals** access. A Config lock is
cleared through the unlock route in `resolution`.
When a successful publish bypasses a gate, the response includes
`bypassedGates`. Each entry reports the gate `type` and how it was bypassed
in `via`, which is one of `ignoreWarnings`, `skipSchemaValidation`,
`skipHooks`, `bypassApprovalPermission`, `restApiBypassesReviews`, or
`revertsBypassApproval` (reverts only). This field is omitted when no gates
were bypassed.

Most callers can interact with these endpoints via shorthand actions
(`/items/add`, `/items/remove`, single-field PUTs) instead of authoring
JSON Patch ops directly. Pass `version: "new"` on edit endpoints to
auto-create a draft.
- name: constants
x-displayName: Constants
description: >-
**Beta** — these endpoints are new and may change in
backwards-incompatible ways.
Reusable named values referenced from feature flag values as `@const:key`
and resolved into the SDK payload at build time. String constants are
interpolated via `{{ @const:key }}`; JSON (object) constants are composed
via an `$extends` array. A constant's own keys **replace** what its
`$extends` bases provide, wholesale — constants are atomic building
blocks. (Config and feature values compose as deep, targeted patches
instead.)
- name: constant-revisions
x-displayName: Constant Revisions
description: >-
**Beta** — these endpoints are new and may change in
backwards-incompatible ways.
Draft revisions for constants, including pending changes, approvals, and
lifecycle (publish, discard, revert). Pass `version: "new"` on edit
endpoints to auto-create a draft.
- name: configs
x-displayName: Configs
description: >-
**Beta** — these endpoints are new and may change in
backwards-incompatible ways.
Reusable, typed, inheritable JSON objects referenced from feature flag
values as `@config:key`. A config carries a field `schema` (with
TypeScript/JSON Schema import-export) and a lineage `parent`. Inheritance
is expressed via `parent`, never an in-value `@config:` entry. Values
layer as a **deep, targeted patch**: a child (or a config-backed feature
value) restates only the leaves it changes and inherits the rest — unlike
a constant's `$extends`, whose own keys replace wholesale. Schema fields
colliding with a published ancestor's key follow 'base wins': identical
re-declarations are stripped with a warning, differing ones are rejected.
- name: config-revisions
x-displayName: Config Revisions
description: >-
**Beta** — these endpoints are new and may change in
backwards-incompatible ways.
Draft revisions for configs, including value and schema edits, schema
import (JSON Schema / TypeScript / inferred), approvals, and lifecycle
(publish, discard, revert). Publishing a schema change cascades the "base
wins" normalization to descendant configs; a publish that removes or
retypes fields descendants still use soft-blocks with a 422 unless the
request body sets `ignoreWarnings: true`. Pass `version: "new"` on edit
endpoints to auto-create a draft.
- name: releases
x-displayName: Releases
description: >-
**Beta** — these endpoints are new and may change in
backwards-incompatible ways.
Coordinated multi-entity publishing: publish a set of revisions across
Feature Flags, Saved Groups, configs, and constants as one all-or-nothing
operation, validated against the combined end-state instead of each
in-between state. Requires the `releases` commercial feature.
- name: custom-hooks
x-displayName: Custom Hooks
description: >-
Sandboxed JavaScript validation hooks that run when features, configs, or
their revisions are saved or published. Throwing an Error blocks the save;
`addWarning(msg)` raises a soft warning. Hooks are scoped by projects, or
pinned to a single feature/config via `entityType`/`entityId`; a
config-scoped hook also runs for every config inheriting from it (its
whole descendant lineage). Scope can be retargeted on update (or cleared
with nulls). Requires an enterprise plan; not available on GrowthBook
Cloud.

for the override value, then add it here with its scope. Send the
