API key from your incident.io dashboard (Settings → API keys)
Body
application/json
What the term means
Maximum string length:
2000Example:
"Payment service provider that handles card authorisations"
The term, for example an acronym or service name. Unique among live entries, ignoring case.
Maximum string length:
128Example:
"PSP"
ID of a live glossary entry. The new entry is inserted immediately after it. Omit to append the entry to the end.
Example:
"01G0J1EXE7AXZ2C93K61WBPYEH"
Response
Created response.
A glossary entry is one term an organisation has coined — an acronym, a service name, or a piece of internal jargon — and the description of what it means.
AI features use the glossary, in rank order, so they understand those terms. Lower ranks come first. Deleting an entry archives it, which frees the term so it can be coined again as a new entry.
