LENS API Endpoints

Access LENS features programmatically via the REST API.

LENS exposes three groups of endpoints:

Insights (/lens/insights/*) — AI-generated insights (anomalies, opportunities, trends, alerts, health), plus per-insight actions.
Settings & usage (/lens/settings, /lens/chat/usage) — notification configuration and chat usage.
Reports (/lens/reports/*) — structured weekly/monthly executive reports.
AI Assistant (/assistant/*) — conversational chat over your analytics data.

Authentication

All LENS endpoints require authentication via Bearer token:

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  https://my.sealmetrics.com/api/v1/lens/insights?account_id=YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID

See Authentication for details on obtaining tokens.

All paths below are relative to the API base URL https://my.sealmetrics.com/api/v1.

Most endpoints require an account_id query parameter and verify that the authenticated user has access to that account. Write actions (mark read, dismiss, submit feedback, update settings, generate reports, delete conversations) additionally require a token with the write scope.

Error Responses

LENS endpoints use standard HTTP status codes. Common cases:

Status	Meaning
`400`	Invalid request (e.g. malformed `period_end`, invalid email)
`401`	Missing/invalid token, or provider auth failure (assistant)
`403`	No access to the account, or LENS not available on the free plan
`404`	Resource not found
`409`	No LLM provider configured (assistant chat)
`429`	Rate limit reached (assistant chat — includes `Retry-After`)

LENS is not available on the free plan; insight endpoints return 403 for accounts on that tier.
