Harness Runtimepublic
Last verified 29 Oct 2026
DigitalOcean Harness Runtime API under /v2/agents. An environment is a
reusable configuration that defines what an agent needs to do work; starting
a session from an environment provisions an isolated sandbox. Define an
environment with a YAML environment spec, or save it as an Environment Config
and create sessions from {name, config_id}.
Environment Configs (/v2/agents/configs) are immutable team-scoped
configurations. Soft-delete releases the active name while keeping
config_id resolvable for existing sessions; clone copies a sanitized
environment under a new name (credentials are never copied).
Checkpoints capture live sandbox machine state for fork and in-place
rollback. Templates (/v2/agents/templates) manage team custom sandbox
templates and their build history.
Triggers (/v2/agents/triggers) fire an agent run on a webhook delivery or
cron schedule, each firing recorded as an execution. The session event feed
(GET /v2/agents/sessions/{session_id}/events) is a Server-Sent Events
stream, and port-forward (GET /v2/agents/sessions/{session_id}/port-forward/{port})
opens a WebSocket tunnel to a guest port.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.

Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Returns lightweight team-scoped config metadata without loading or returning environment-spec JSON. Soft-deleted configs are excluded.

endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Accepts name, environment-spec YAML text, and optional Insights telemetry opt-in. Tenant secrets are declared inside the environment spec (write-only values), not as sibling request fields. Responses never echo secret values; GET/create may include credential slot metadata (name/source/provider only). Configs are immutable after create.
Request Body: application/json
Environment Config create body. Secret values live in the environment-spec YAML and are never returned.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.

Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Returns one team-scoped Environment Config including the sanitized environment spec and redacted credential slot metadata. Secret values are never returned.

For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Copies the source config's sanitized manifest to a new UUID. Source and clone are independent (no lineage). Credential bindings are never copied: if the manifest declares secret slots, supply secrets/oauth_assignments again (write-only). content_hash matches the source when the manifest is unchanged.
Path Parameters
config_id
required
019fb39c-14d9-7080-933e-b9b90e25acdaThe Environment Config UUID.
Request Body: application/json
Clone body with required new name plus write-only credentials for any declared slots.
name
required
New config name, unique among the team's active configs.
oauth_assignments
optional
Write-only map from oauth logical slot to an OAuth assignment UUID. Required when the source declares those slots; never copied from the source.
secrets
optional
Write-only map from tenantSecret logical slot to plaintext. Required when the source declares those slots; never copied from the source.

Authorizations:

(1 scope)
OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Enumerates the caller's team sessions whose session was created from this durable Environment Config. Keyset-paginated on an opaque cursor, newest first, same shape and status semantics as GET /v2/agents/sessions.
Path Parameters
config_id
required
019fb39c-14d9-7080-933e-b9b90e25acdaThe Environment Config UUID.
Query Parameters
page_size
1 – 200 optional
50Page size. Defaults to 50 when omitted or non-positive; values above 200 are clamped to 200.
Default:50page_token
optional
Opaque keyset cursor returned by the previous page. Empty starts from the beginning.
status
optional
SESSION_STATUS_READYOptional filter on session status. Empty / SESSION_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED still hides destroyed and failed sessions by default; SESSION_STATUS_ALL opts out and returns every session regardless of status.
Request: /v2/agents/configs/{config_id}/sessions

A page of sessions created from the config.
ratelimit-limit
The default limit on number of requests that can be made per hour and per minute. Current rate limits are 5000 requests per hour and 250 requests per minute.
ratelimit-remaining
The number of requests in your hourly quota that remain before you hit your request limit. See https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/#rate-limit for information about how requests expire.
ratelimit-reset
The time when the oldest request will expire. The value is given in Unix epoch time. See https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/#rate-limit for information about how requests expire.
application/json
next_page_token
optional
exampleOpaque cursor for the next page. Empty when there are no further pages.
sessions
optional
Show child properties
agent_kind
optional
AGENT_KIND_UNSPECIFIEDAgentKind identifies what runs inside the session sandbox. CreateSession accepts CLAUDE_CODE, OPENCODE, CODEX_CLI, CURSOR_CLI, OPENAI_CODEX, LANGGRAPH, and CREWAI (the supported set is overridable via HARNESS_SUPPORTED_AGENT_KINDS); other values are rejected with 400. AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX is the OpenAI sandbox-provider kind (DO runs codex exec-server; the agent loop lives at OpenAI). AGENT_KIND_LANGGRAPH is the LangGraph framework adapter. AGENT_KIND_CREWAI is the CrewAI Crew framework adapter: like LANGGRAPH the template bakes no agent code, so spec.env must supply FRAMEWORK_REPO and FRAMEWORK_REPO_SHA; a Crew kickoff is one-shot and exposes no HITL surface. CREWAI is additionally gated per team and returns 400 for teams it is not enabled for.
config_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Durable Environment Config UUID the session was created from (inline manifests persist a config too, named after the session). Persisted and returned on create/get/list; absent only for sessions created before config references were stored.
created_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00Zfork_from_checkpoint_id
optional
exampleLineage: harness-api checkpoint id (cp_
fork_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Lineage: branch label assigned when this session was created by ForkSession (or rollback's internal fork). Omitted/empty for root sessions.
idle_timeout_seconds
optional
60This session's own idle-pause timeout (manifest idle_timeout). Omitted when the session uses the deployment-wide default.
keep_warm
optional
falseSession is exempt from idle auto-pause (manifest keep_warm, or the agent-kind default: hermes sessions keep warm). Pause requests against such a session are rejected with 409. Omitted when false.
last_event_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00ZTimestamp of the most recent event in this session's canonical stream. Drives the inactivity policy that pauses idle sessions.
name
optional
demo-agentUser-assignable display name, unique per team among non-terminal sessions. Usable in place of session_id by clients (doctl / Console resolve it to the id via the ListSessions ?name= filter; the {session_id} path stays UUID-only). Supplied via the environment-spec metadata.name, or auto-generated ("session-
openai_environment_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API environment id (env_…), captured from the resolved CODEX_ENVIRONMENT_ID guest env value. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions. Non-secret correlation metadata.
openai_session_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API session id (sess_…) this DO sandbox hosts. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions (empty otherwise). Non-secret correlation metadata; a client (doctl agents attach) reads it to bridge to the OpenAI session. See docs/design/openai-sandbox-provider.md.
parent_session_id
optional
exampleLineage: id of the session this one was forked from. Omitted/empty for root (non-fork) sessions.
pause_reason
optional
exampleWhy this session is paused. Present only when status is SESSION_STATUS_PAUSED; omitted otherwise. Known values: manual (PauseSession RPC), idle (inactivity auto-pause), low_balance (prepay gate). Clients should treat an unrecognized value as an opaque reason string.
repo_hint
optional
exampleOptional repository hint supplied at session creation (first spec.workspace.repos entry of the manifest). Not authoritative; the agent may change repos in-session.
resume_on_topoff
optional
falseSession consents to being resumed automatically when the team's prepayment balance is restored after a low-balance pause. Defaults to false at create time; may be toggled later via PATCH /v2/agents/sessions/{session_id} (resume_on_topoff only). Only a session paused with reason low_balance whose latest run did not complete is ever resumed automatically - a session the customer paused themselves, or one that idled out, stays paused regardless. Not an environment-spec field, and forks do not inherit it. Omitted when false.
sandbox_id
optional
exampleSandbox identity for support / debugging. Informational; omitted until a sandbox is allocated.
session_id
optional
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890status
optional
SESSION_STATUS_UNSPECIFIEDSessionStatus is the lifecycle state of the sandbox + agent pair. SESSION_STATUS_ALL is a ListSessions status-filter value only -- no session is ever actually in this status. SESSION_STATUS_LOCKED is reserved for internal use and never appears in an end-user-facing response.
warnings
optional
[]Non-fatal advisories computed from the manifest at create time: one entry per populated accepted-but-not-yet-enforced section (flat names: secrets, model, tools, memory, budget, max_lifetime, mounts; legacy manifests get the corresponding spec.* paths), a deprecation entry when a legacy-envelope manifest or an adapter alias (codex-cli, cursor-cli) is used, and a heuristic entry per credential-looking spec.env value. Populated on the CreateSession response only.
400
Invalid pagination input or config_id.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Keyset-paginated on an opaque cursor. Results are scoped to the authenticated team. Destroyed and failed sessions are omitted by default (matching the Cloud Console); pass status=SESSION_STATUS_ALL to list every session regardless of status, or an explicit status such as status=SESSION_STATUS_FAILED or status=SESSION_STATUS_DESTROYED to list only those.
Query Parameters
page_size
1 – 200 optional
50Page size. Defaults to 50 when omitted or non-positive; values above 200 are clamped to 200 (not rejected).
Default:50page_token
optional
Opaque keyset cursor returned by the previous page. Empty starts from the beginning.
status
optional
SESSION_STATUS_UNSPECIFIEDOptional filter on session status. Empty / SESSION_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED means no explicit filter, which still hides destroyed and failed sessions by default; SESSION_STATUS_ALL opts out and returns every session regardless of status (no session is ever actually in this status; it only means something as a filter value here); any other explicit status overrides the default.
Default:SESSION_STATUS_UNSPECIFIEDname
optional
demo-agentOptional exact-name filter (case-insensitive). Returns the single live (non-terminal) session that currently holds this name for the caller's team, or an empty list if none does. Matches the live holder only, so historical terminal rows and reused names never make it ambiguous (per-team live-name uniqueness bounds it to at most one). This is how clients (doctl / Console) resolve a session name to its id; the {session_id} path stays UUID-only.
search
optional
demoOptional case-insensitive substring filter on session name (contains), for callers that don't know the exact name (e.g. a UI search box). Unlike name, this may return zero, one, or many sessions, including terminal ones. Independent of name; at most 64 characters.
Request: /v2/agents/sessions

A successful response.
ratelimit-limit
The default limit on number of requests that can be made per hour and per minute. Current rate limits are 5000 requests per hour and 250 requests per minute.
ratelimit-remaining
The number of requests in your hourly quota that remain before you hit your request limit. See https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/#rate-limit for information about how requests expire.
ratelimit-reset
The time when the oldest request will expire. The value is given in Unix epoch time. See https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/#rate-limit for information about how requests expire.
application/json
next_page_token
optional
exampleOpaque cursor for the next page. Empty when there are no further pages.
sessions
optional
Show child properties
agent_kind
optional
AGENT_KIND_UNSPECIFIEDAgentKind identifies what runs inside the session sandbox. CreateSession accepts CLAUDE_CODE, OPENCODE, CODEX_CLI, CURSOR_CLI, OPENAI_CODEX, LANGGRAPH, and CREWAI (the supported set is overridable via HARNESS_SUPPORTED_AGENT_KINDS); other values are rejected with 400. AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX is the OpenAI sandbox-provider kind (DO runs codex exec-server; the agent loop lives at OpenAI). AGENT_KIND_LANGGRAPH is the LangGraph framework adapter. AGENT_KIND_CREWAI is the CrewAI Crew framework adapter: like LANGGRAPH the template bakes no agent code, so spec.env must supply FRAMEWORK_REPO and FRAMEWORK_REPO_SHA; a Crew kickoff is one-shot and exposes no HITL surface. CREWAI is additionally gated per team and returns 400 for teams it is not enabled for.
config_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Durable Environment Config UUID the session was created from (inline manifests persist a config too, named after the session). Persisted and returned on create/get/list; absent only for sessions created before config references were stored.
created_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00Zfork_from_checkpoint_id
optional
exampleLineage: harness-api checkpoint id (cp_
fork_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Lineage: branch label assigned when this session was created by ForkSession (or rollback's internal fork). Omitted/empty for root sessions.
idle_timeout_seconds
optional
60This session's own idle-pause timeout (manifest idle_timeout). Omitted when the session uses the deployment-wide default.
keep_warm
optional
falseSession is exempt from idle auto-pause (manifest keep_warm, or the agent-kind default: hermes sessions keep warm). Pause requests against such a session are rejected with 409. Omitted when false.
last_event_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00ZTimestamp of the most recent event in this session's canonical stream. Drives the inactivity policy that pauses idle sessions.
name
optional
demo-agentUser-assignable display name, unique per team among non-terminal sessions. Usable in place of session_id by clients (doctl / Console resolve it to the id via the ListSessions ?name= filter; the {session_id} path stays UUID-only). Supplied via the environment-spec metadata.name, or auto-generated ("session-
openai_environment_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API environment id (env_…), captured from the resolved CODEX_ENVIRONMENT_ID guest env value. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions. Non-secret correlation metadata.
openai_session_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API session id (sess_…) this DO sandbox hosts. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions (empty otherwise). Non-secret correlation metadata; a client (doctl agents attach) reads it to bridge to the OpenAI session. See docs/design/openai-sandbox-provider.md.
parent_session_id
optional
exampleLineage: id of the session this one was forked from. Omitted/empty for root (non-fork) sessions.
pause_reason
optional
exampleWhy this session is paused. Present only when status is SESSION_STATUS_PAUSED; omitted otherwise. Known values: manual (PauseSession RPC), idle (inactivity auto-pause), low_balance (prepay gate). Clients should treat an unrecognized value as an opaque reason string.
repo_hint
optional
exampleOptional repository hint supplied at session creation (first spec.workspace.repos entry of the manifest). Not authoritative; the agent may change repos in-session.
resume_on_topoff
optional
falseSession consents to being resumed automatically when the team's prepayment balance is restored after a low-balance pause. Defaults to false at create time; may be toggled later via PATCH /v2/agents/sessions/{session_id} (resume_on_topoff only). Only a session paused with reason low_balance whose latest run did not complete is ever resumed automatically - a session the customer paused themselves, or one that idled out, stays paused regardless. Not an environment-spec field, and forks do not inherit it. Omitted when false.
sandbox_id
optional
exampleSandbox identity for support / debugging. Informational; omitted until a sandbox is allocated.
session_id
optional
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890status
optional
SESSION_STATUS_UNSPECIFIEDSessionStatus is the lifecycle state of the sandbox + agent pair. SESSION_STATUS_ALL is a ListSessions status-filter value only -- no session is ever actually in this status. SESSION_STATUS_LOCKED is reserved for internal use and never appears in an end-user-facing response.
warnings
optional
[]Non-fatal advisories computed from the manifest at create time: one entry per populated accepted-but-not-yet-enforced section (flat names: secrets, model, tools, memory, budget, max_lifetime, mounts; legacy manifests get the corresponding spec.* paths), a deprecation entry when a legacy-envelope manifest or an adapter alias (codex-cli, cursor-cli) is used, and a heuristic entry per credential-looking spec.env value. Populated on the CreateSession response only.
400
Invalid page_token.

Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Returns once the session row is allocated. Sandbox boot completes asynchronously.
Two mutually exclusive request forms are selected by Content-Type (same contract as
harness-api harness.swagger.json):
- YAML (
application/x-yaml,application/yaml,text/yaml,text/x-yaml): the environment spec. Two environment-spec formats are accepted during the dual-format transition: the flat format (primary) and the legacyagents.digitalocean.com/v1alpha1envelope (deprecated). A top-levelapiVersionkey selects the legacy parser; its absence selects flat. Internally persists a durable Environment Config, then creates the session. - JSON (
application/json):{name, config_id}loads the config, resolves its credentials from Secrets Manager at the version pinned when the config was created, and creates the session.
The OpenAPI requestBody schemas the JSON form for client generation (Autorest cannot emit a
multi–content-type body). The live API still accepts the YAML forms listed above.
Successful responses may include config_id on the session. X-Device-UUID (if present) is
persisted on the session row. Query parameters openai_session_id and resume_on_topoff apply to
both forms; when both the JSON body field and ?resume_on_topoff= are present, the query
parameter wins.
Query Parameters
openai_session_id
optional
sess_abc123OpenAI Agents API session id (sess_…) for adapter: codex-agentapi. doctl creates the OpenAI session before calling DO and passes the resulting id here; harness-api persists it for correlation. Empty/omitted for every other agent kind.
resume_on_topoff
optional
falseOpt the new session in to automatic resumption when the team's prepayment balance is restored. Defaults to false. Exists as a query parameter so the environment spec (YAML body) form can carry it too. On the application/json form the body field is idiomatic, but this parameter wins when both are present. Must be exactly one of true/false/1/0; anything else is a 400.
Header Parameters
X-Device-UUID
optional
device-uuid-exampleOptional hardware device id forwarded by doctl. Persisted on the session row for lifecycle attribution. Values over 128 bytes are ignored.
Request Body: application/json

spec under YAML Content-Types (see operation description); those forms are omitted from content
so generated clients (pydo/autorest) can emit this operation.
config_id
required
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555name
required
demo-agentSession name, independent of the config name. Must satisfy the existing environment-spec metadata.name rules and must not be UUID-shaped.
resume_on_topoff
optional
falseOpt the new session in to automatic resumption when the team's prepayment balance is restored. Defaults to false. Session-scoped, not config-scoped: the referenced config never confers this, so one shared config cannot enrol every session created from it. Omit to leave the default (or to let the ?resume_on_topoff= query parameter supply it).

Session row allocated; sandbox boot continues asynchronously.
ratelimit-limit
The default limit on number of requests that can be made per hour and per minute. Current rate limits are 5000 requests per hour and 250 requests per minute.
ratelimit-remaining
The number of requests in your hourly quota that remain before you hit your request limit. See https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/#rate-limit for information about how requests expire.
ratelimit-reset
The time when the oldest request will expire. The value is given in Unix epoch time. See https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/#rate-limit for information about how requests expire.
application/json
session
optional
Session is the user-facing record of a environment session + sandbox pair.
Show child properties
agent_kind
optional
AGENT_KIND_UNSPECIFIEDAgentKind identifies what runs inside the session sandbox. CreateSession accepts CLAUDE_CODE, OPENCODE, CODEX_CLI, CURSOR_CLI, OPENAI_CODEX, LANGGRAPH, and CREWAI (the supported set is overridable via HARNESS_SUPPORTED_AGENT_KINDS); other values are rejected with 400. AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX is the OpenAI sandbox-provider kind (DO runs codex exec-server; the agent loop lives at OpenAI). AGENT_KIND_LANGGRAPH is the LangGraph framework adapter. AGENT_KIND_CREWAI is the CrewAI Crew framework adapter: like LANGGRAPH the template bakes no agent code, so spec.env must supply FRAMEWORK_REPO and FRAMEWORK_REPO_SHA; a Crew kickoff is one-shot and exposes no HITL surface. CREWAI is additionally gated per team and returns 400 for teams it is not enabled for.
config_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Durable Environment Config UUID the session was created from (inline manifests persist a config too, named after the session). Persisted and returned on create/get/list; absent only for sessions created before config references were stored.
created_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00Zfork_from_checkpoint_id
optional
exampleLineage: harness-api checkpoint id (cp_
fork_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Lineage: branch label assigned when this session was created by ForkSession (or rollback's internal fork). Omitted/empty for root sessions.
idle_timeout_seconds
optional
60This session's own idle-pause timeout (manifest idle_timeout). Omitted when the session uses the deployment-wide default.
keep_warm
optional
falseSession is exempt from idle auto-pause (manifest keep_warm, or the agent-kind default: hermes sessions keep warm). Pause requests against such a session are rejected with 409. Omitted when false.
last_event_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00ZTimestamp of the most recent event in this session's canonical stream. Drives the inactivity policy that pauses idle sessions.
name
optional
demo-agentUser-assignable display name, unique per team among non-terminal sessions. Usable in place of session_id by clients (doctl / Console resolve it to the id via the ListSessions ?name= filter; the {session_id} path stays UUID-only). Supplied via the environment-spec metadata.name, or auto-generated ("session-
openai_environment_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API environment id (env_…), captured from the resolved CODEX_ENVIRONMENT_ID guest env value. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions. Non-secret correlation metadata.
openai_session_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API session id (sess_…) this DO sandbox hosts. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions (empty otherwise). Non-secret correlation metadata; a client (doctl agents attach) reads it to bridge to the OpenAI session. See docs/design/openai-sandbox-provider.md.
parent_session_id
optional
exampleLineage: id of the session this one was forked from. Omitted/empty for root (non-fork) sessions.
pause_reason
optional
exampleWhy this session is paused. Present only when status is SESSION_STATUS_PAUSED; omitted otherwise. Known values: manual (PauseSession RPC), idle (inactivity auto-pause), low_balance (prepay gate). Clients should treat an unrecognized value as an opaque reason string.
repo_hint
optional
exampleOptional repository hint supplied at session creation (first spec.workspace.repos entry of the manifest). Not authoritative; the agent may change repos in-session.
resume_on_topoff
optional
falseSession consents to being resumed automatically when the team's prepayment balance is restored after a low-balance pause. Defaults to false at create time; may be toggled later via PATCH /v2/agents/sessions/{session_id} (resume_on_topoff only). Only a session paused with reason low_balance whose latest run did not complete is ever resumed automatically - a session the customer paused themselves, or one that idled out, stays paused regardless. Not an environment-spec field, and forks do not inherit it. Omitted when false.
sandbox_id
optional
exampleSandbox identity for support / debugging. Informational; omitted until a sandbox is allocated.
session_id
optional
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890status
optional
SESSION_STATUS_UNSPECIFIEDSessionStatus is the lifecycle state of the sandbox + agent pair. SESSION_STATUS_ALL is a ListSessions status-filter value only -- no session is ever actually in this status. SESSION_STATUS_LOCKED is reserved for internal use and never appears in an end-user-facing response.
warnings
optional
[]Non-fatal advisories computed from the manifest at create time: one entry per populated accepted-but-not-yet-enforced section (flat names: secrets, model, tools, memory, budget, max_lifetime, mounts; legacy manifests get the corresponding spec.* paths), a deprecation entry when a legacy-envelope manifest or an adapter alias (codex-cli, cursor-cli) is used, and a heuristic entry per credential-looking spec.env value. Populated on the CreateSession response only.
400
Invalid manifest/config JSON, incompatible credentials, or invalid query parameter.

Authorizations:

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Stateless preflight: parses the same environment spec as CreateSession and runs the identical resolve + validate pipeline against the capability descriptor stamped on the selected template's image (resolved per-request via the sandbox, not a separate registry). Returns per-rule verdicts. Nothing is provisioned or persisted.
Each rule is validated against the descriptor for the (agent, version) the template resolves to and gets a verdict: exact, degraded, unsupported, or unverified. ok is false when any strict rule is unsupported or unverified — i.e. CreateSession would reject the policy for that agent. An empty spec.permissions returns ok: true with no verdicts. Because it shares the create path's descriptor lookup, the verdicts match what CreateSession would compute.
Request Body: application/x-yaml
The same environment spec you would submit to CreateSession (YAML). Only agent/template selection
and the permissions block are used. The live API also accepts application/yaml, text/yaml, and
text/x-yaml; OpenAPI content lists a single media type so generated clients can emit this
operation.
apiVersion
optional
agents.digitalocean.com/v1alpha1Legacy envelope only - must be "agents.digitalocean.com/v1alpha1", and its presence is what routes the document to the deprecated legacy parser. Flat-format manifests carry no version key (the endpoint owns the contract); required, with kind and spec, when authoring the legacy format.

Reserved platform keys (TEAM_ID, SESSION_ID, SANDBOX_ID, CONTROL_PLANE_CALLBACK_URL, SANDBOX_TEMPLATE, SANDBOX_AGENT_WORKDIR, SIZE_SLUG, SANDBOX_IMAGE_ID, SANDBOX_OCI_REF, PLANO_PERMISSION_*) are rejected. Credential-looking values (dop_v1_..., sk-..., ghp_...) trigger a create-time warning.

tenantmode
optional
interactiveExplicit lifecycle discriminator. Defaults to "interactive" (spec.serving forbidden); "served" requires spec.serving.

Show child properties
default
optional
exampleprofile
optional
examplerouting
optional
examplepermissions
optional
Customer-declared tool-execution permission policy (spec.permissions). REQUEST only: the policy engine resolves it (∩ tenant ∩ platform) into the canonical policy and validates it against the (agent, version) capability descriptor. Absent or empty means the agent keeps its built-in default gating — no policy is shipped to the sandbox.
Show child properties
defaultAction
optional
allowDisposition for tool calls that match no rule. Defaults to "ask" when omitted.
filesystem
optional
Filesystem boundary, enforced by the microVM (read-only root + bind-mounted writable roots) for every agent.
Show child properties
allowWrite
optional
["example"]Additional writable paths beyond the workspace. Values must not contain shell-style ${VAR}/$VAR expansions.
mode
optional
read-onlynetwork
optional
Network boundary. Narrows (subtract-only) spec.sandbox.egress; link-local/internal addresses stay blocked by the broader egress policy.
Show child properties
allow
optional
["example"]default
optional
allowrules
optional
Ordered match→action rules. Declared order is authoritative: the LAST matching rule wins (author-order last-match).
Show child properties
action
required
allowenforcement
optional
strictWhat happens when the agent cannot enforce the rule exactly. "strict" rejects the session; "best-effort" degrades to the closest more-restrictive form and warns (never widens). Defaults to strict for deny rules, best-effort otherwise.
match
optional
Optional keys narrowing the rule (e.g. {"command": "npm run deploy"} for bash). Values are globs and must not contain shell-style ${VAR}/$VAR expansions.
tool
required
exampleTool taxonomy this rule matches (e.g. bash, file.read, file.write, web.fetch, git.*, mcp).
runtime
required
Canonical adapter ids: claude-code | opencode | codex | cursor | hermes | codex-agentapi | custom. codex-agentapi is the OpenAI sandbox-provider runtime (DO runs codex exec-server; the agent loop lives at OpenAI) and pairs with the opaque spec.runtime.config block. codex-cli and cursor-cli are deprecated aliases (accepted with a create-time warning). The framework adapters (openai-agents, claude-agent-sdk, crewai, langgraph) are declared but not yet supported; CreateSession rejects them. adapter: custom requires the custom block.
Show child properties
adapter
required
claude-codeconfig
optional
{}OPAQUE, provider-specific runtime config. Only for adapter: codex-agentapi today, where it is the OpenAI Agents API create-session body (agent/environment/input) that doctl forwards verbatim to OpenAI's POST /v1/agents/sessions; harness-api stores and echoes it but never parses or validates its contents (so DO stays forward-compatible as OpenAI's schema evolves). The OpenAI session_id is passed on the create call (the openai_session_id query parameter), not in this block.
custom
optional
BYO container; requires adapter: custom. image is required and should be digest-pinned.

egress
optional
Requested egress policy (legacy envelope). unrestricted opts out of platform-default host allowlists and cannot combine with allow / allowIps / vpcUuid / subnetUuid. Absent or empty means no destination ACL (same as unrestricted). Flat authors prefer egress: unrestricted (scalar), a bare host list, or an object with allow_hosts / allow_ips / vpc_uuid / subnet_uuid. Platform host defaults are unioned only when allow names something; allowIps does not trigger that union (IP-only turns the destination ACL on without domain rules). VPC attachment is create-time immutable; ownership is verified at session create. Allowlists are a request only: the server intersects them with tenant + platform policy and can only narrow them.
Show child properties
allow
optional
allowIps
optional
["example"]Exact IPv4/IPv6 literals (not CIDRs).
subnetUuid
optional
exampleOptional subnet within vpcUuid.
unrestricted
optional
trueWhen true, opts out of the platform-default host allowlist union. Mutually exclusive with allow / allowIps / vpcUuid / subnetUuid.
vpcUuid
optional
exampleCustomer VPC UUID. Create-time immutable.
idleTimeoutSeconds
optional
1Inactivity suspend timeout. 0 means tenant policy default.
maxLifetimeSeconds
optional
1Hard wall-clock ceiling for the whole session, independent of activity. Accepted, not yet enforced (returns a warning).
mounts
optional
Requested data mounts. Accepted, not yet enforced (returns a warning). accessKeyRef/secretKeyRef name declared tenantSecret slots in spec.secrets, validated at create; declare those slots with env: false so the keys stay mount-scoped and out of the guest env.

truesizeSlug
optional
exampleRequested sandbox size (catalog: GET /v2/agents/sessions/sandbox/sizes). Empty means the service default.
template
optional
exampleOptional sandbox template. Empty (or the legacy placeholder "coding") means "no preference": the template derives from the adapter.
secrets
optional
Declared credential requirements. source tenantSecret is enforced today: value is write-only plaintext, extracted into Secrets Manager at create and never persisted or returned. source oauth requires provider, carries no value, and is accepted but not yet enforced. ref is legacy and ignored. env false keeps the resolved value out of the guest environment (mount-only slots).

auth
optional
Brokered credential for an INLINE server (invalid on the catalog form). secretRef names a declared tenantSecret slot in spec.secrets, validated at create; the slot is resolved server-side and sent as an HTTP header. Plaintext credentials are never accepted.
name
optional
exampleInline server name (required with url): 1-64 chars of lowercase letters, digits, '-', '.', '_', starting/ending alphanumeric. Unique across the list. Must not start with do. (reserved for catalog refs).
preloadTools
optional
["example"]Catalog form only. Individual tools (optional integer pin) advertised directly in the session MCP tools/list next to the action_search/action_invoke/action_code meta tools. Each entry must appear in tools when tools is set; toolbelt references are rejected. Every preloaded schema is in the model's context on every turn, so keep this to a handful of tools. Omitted means nothing is preloaded.
ref
optional
do.actionsDO-owned catalog reference (catalog form); do.* only, e.g. do.actions. Mutually exclusive with name/url/auth.
tools
optional
["example"]Optional selection allowlist; omitted means all tools the server advertises. Each entry is an individual tool name with an optional integer version pin (e.g. web_search, execute_code@3) or a toolbelt reference - a server-defined named tool group written toolbelt:

optional
https://example.comInline server endpoint; https:// only.
workspace
optional
Repositories the session works against.

Authorizations:

(1 scope)
OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Read-only catalog the UI (and other clients) render as the size picker, instead of hardcoding the list. The set is the single source of truth shared with create-time validation and the default-size fallback, so every slug returned here is accepted by CreateSession as spec.sandbox.sizeSlug. Sizes are returned smallest-to-largest. Static and safe to cache; independent of team/session; no pagination.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
GetSession returns the current snapshot of a session.

application/json
session
optional
Session is the user-facing record of a environment session + sandbox pair.
Show child properties
agent_kind
optional
AGENT_KIND_UNSPECIFIEDAgentKind identifies what runs inside the session sandbox. CreateSession accepts CLAUDE_CODE, OPENCODE, CODEX_CLI, CURSOR_CLI, OPENAI_CODEX, LANGGRAPH, and CREWAI (the supported set is overridable via HARNESS_SUPPORTED_AGENT_KINDS); other values are rejected with 400. AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX is the OpenAI sandbox-provider kind (DO runs codex exec-server; the agent loop lives at OpenAI). AGENT_KIND_LANGGRAPH is the LangGraph framework adapter. AGENT_KIND_CREWAI is the CrewAI Crew framework adapter: like LANGGRAPH the template bakes no agent code, so spec.env must supply FRAMEWORK_REPO and FRAMEWORK_REPO_SHA; a Crew kickoff is one-shot and exposes no HITL surface. CREWAI is additionally gated per team and returns 400 for teams it is not enabled for.
config_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Durable Environment Config UUID the session was created from (inline manifests persist a config too, named after the session). Persisted and returned on create/get/list; absent only for sessions created before config references were stored.
created_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00Zfork_from_checkpoint_id
optional
exampleLineage: harness-api checkpoint id (cp_
fork_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Lineage: branch label assigned when this session was created by ForkSession (or rollback's internal fork). Omitted/empty for root sessions.
idle_timeout_seconds
optional
60This session's own idle-pause timeout (manifest idle_timeout). Omitted when the session uses the deployment-wide default.
keep_warm
optional
falseSession is exempt from idle auto-pause (manifest keep_warm, or the agent-kind default: hermes sessions keep warm). Pause requests against such a session are rejected with 409. Omitted when false.
last_event_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00ZTimestamp of the most recent event in this session's canonical stream. Drives the inactivity policy that pauses idle sessions.
name
optional
demo-agentUser-assignable display name, unique per team among non-terminal sessions. Usable in place of session_id by clients (doctl / Console resolve it to the id via the ListSessions ?name= filter; the {session_id} path stays UUID-only). Supplied via the environment-spec metadata.name, or auto-generated ("session-
openai_environment_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API environment id (env_…), captured from the resolved CODEX_ENVIRONMENT_ID guest env value. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions. Non-secret correlation metadata.
openai_session_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API session id (sess_…) this DO sandbox hosts. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions (empty otherwise). Non-secret correlation metadata; a client (doctl agents attach) reads it to bridge to the OpenAI session. See docs/design/openai-sandbox-provider.md.
parent_session_id
optional
exampleLineage: id of the session this one was forked from. Omitted/empty for root (non-fork) sessions.
pause_reason
optional
exampleWhy this session is paused. Present only when status is SESSION_STATUS_PAUSED; omitted otherwise. Known values: manual (PauseSession RPC), idle (inactivity auto-pause), low_balance (prepay gate). Clients should treat an unrecognized value as an opaque reason string.
repo_hint
optional
exampleOptional repository hint supplied at session creation (first spec.workspace.repos entry of the manifest). Not authoritative; the agent may change repos in-session.
resume_on_topoff
optional
falseSession consents to being resumed automatically when the team's prepayment balance is restored after a low-balance pause. Defaults to false at create time; may be toggled later via PATCH /v2/agents/sessions/{session_id} (resume_on_topoff only). Only a session paused with reason low_balance whose latest run did not complete is ever resumed automatically - a session the customer paused themselves, or one that idled out, stays paused regardless. Not an environment-spec field, and forks do not inherit it. Omitted when false.
sandbox_id
optional
exampleSandbox identity for support / debugging. Informational; omitted until a sandbox is allocated.
session_id
optional
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890status
optional
SESSION_STATUS_UNSPECIFIEDSessionStatus is the lifecycle state of the sandbox + agent pair. SESSION_STATUS_ALL is a ListSessions status-filter value only -- no session is ever actually in this status. SESSION_STATUS_LOCKED is reserved for internal use and never appears in an end-user-facing response.
warnings
optional
[]Non-fatal advisories computed from the manifest at create time: one entry per populated accepted-but-not-yet-enforced section (flat names: secrets, model, tools, memory, budget, max_lifetime, mounts; legacy manifests get the corresponding spec.* paths), a deprecation entry when a legacy-envelope manifest or an adapter alias (codex-cli, cursor-cli) is used, and a heuristic entry per credential-looking spec.env value. Populated on the CreateSession response only.
401
Authentication failed due to invalid credentials.

AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX is the OpenAI sandbox-provider kind (DO runs codex exec-server; the agent loop lives at OpenAI). AGENT_KIND_LANGGRAPH is the LangGraph framework adapter. AGENT_KIND_CREWAI is the CrewAI Crew framework adapter: like LANGGRAPH the template bakes no agent code, so spec.env must supply FRAMEWORK_REPO and FRAMEWORK_REPO_SHA; a Crew kickoff is one-shot and exposes no HITL surface. CREWAI is additionally gated per team and returns 400 for teams it is not enabled for.
config_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Durable Environment Config UUID the session was created from (inline manifests persist a config too, named after the session). Persisted and returned on create/get/list; absent only for sessions created before config references were stored.
created_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00Zfork_from_checkpoint_id
optional
exampleLineage: harness-api checkpoint id (cp_
fork_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Lineage: branch label assigned when this session was created by ForkSession (or rollback's internal fork). Omitted/empty for root sessions.
idle_timeout_seconds
optional
60This session's own idle-pause timeout (manifest idle_timeout). Omitted when the session uses the deployment-wide default.
keep_warm
optional
falseSession is exempt from idle auto-pause (manifest keep_warm, or the agent-kind default: hermes sessions keep warm). Pause requests against such a session are rejected with 409. Omitted when false.
last_event_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00ZTimestamp of the most recent event in this session's canonical stream. Drives the inactivity policy that pauses idle sessions.
name
optional
demo-agentUser-assignable display name, unique per team among non-terminal sessions. Usable in place of session_id by clients (doctl / Console resolve it to the id via the ListSessions ?name= filter; the {session_id} path stays UUID-only). Supplied via the environment-spec metadata.name, or auto-generated ("session-
openai_environment_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API environment id (env_…), captured from the resolved CODEX_ENVIRONMENT_ID guest env value. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions. Non-secret correlation metadata.
openai_session_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API session id (sess_…) this DO sandbox hosts. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions (empty otherwise). Non-secret correlation metadata; a client (doctl agents attach) reads it to bridge to the OpenAI session. See docs/design/openai-sandbox-provider.md.
parent_session_id
optional
exampleLineage: id of the session this one was forked from. Omitted/empty for root (non-fork) sessions.
pause_reason
optional
exampleWhy this session is paused. Present only when status is SESSION_STATUS_PAUSED; omitted otherwise. Known values: manual (PauseSession RPC), idle (inactivity auto-pause), low_balance (prepay gate). Clients should treat an unrecognized value as an opaque reason string.
repo_hint
optional
exampleOptional repository hint supplied at session creation (first spec.workspace.repos entry of the manifest). Not authoritative; the agent may change repos in-session.
resume_on_topoff
optional
falseSession consents to being resumed automatically when the team's prepayment balance is restored after a low-balance pause. Defaults to false at create time; may be toggled later via PATCH /v2/agents/sessions/{session_id} (resume_on_topoff only). Only a session paused with reason low_balance whose latest run did not complete is ever resumed automatically - a session the customer paused themselves, or one that idled out, stays paused regardless. Not an environment-spec field, and forks do not inherit it. Omitted when false.
sandbox_id
optional
exampleSandbox identity for support / debugging. Informational; omitted until a sandbox is allocated.
session_id
optional
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890status
optional
SESSION_STATUS_UNSPECIFIEDSessionStatus is the lifecycle state of the sandbox + agent pair. SESSION_STATUS_ALL is a ListSessions status-filter value only -- no session is ever actually in this status. SESSION_STATUS_LOCKED is reserved for internal use and never appears in an end-user-facing response.
warnings
optional
[]Non-fatal advisories computed from the manifest at create time: one entry per populated accepted-but-not-yet-enforced section (flat names: secrets, model, tools, memory, budget, max_lifetime, mounts; legacy manifests get the corresponding spec.* paths), a deprecation entry when a legacy-envelope manifest or an adapter alias (codex-cli, cursor-cli) is used, and a heuristic entry per credential-looking spec.env value. Populated on the CreateSession response only.
400
Malformed body, unknown field, or no recognized patchable properties.

/v2/agents/sessions/{session_id}
Authorizations:
bearer_auth
(1 scope)
OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Persistent workspace contents are retained per tenant policy. Returns 204 No Content on success.
Path Parameters

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"

Synchronous: blocks until the capture reaches READY and returns the terminal Checkpoint — clients never see PENDING on this endpoint and need no poll loop. The checkpoint binds the machine-state capture to the event-log cursor at the cut, so it can later seed forks (POST .../fork) and rollback. Checkpoints are taken between turns; a session with an active turn in flight returns 409.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"

application/json
checkpoint
optional
Checkpoint is a durable capture of a session's live sandbox machine state bound to the event-log cursor at the cut. READY checkpoints seed forks (ForkSession) and rollback. Internal fields (team_id, the substrate checkpoint id, event_seq) are never serialized.
Show child properties
checkpoint_id
optional
cp_9f2c1a4bPublic checkpoint id, stable for the checkpoint's lifetime (e.g. cp_9f2c1a4b).
created_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00Zerror_message
optional
capture timed outClient-safe failure detail; set only when status is FAILED.
event_id
optional
01JABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTVWXYZEvent-log cursor (ULID) of the last event included in the cut; forks resume event replay from here.
kind
optional
explicitHow the checkpoint came to exist: explicit - requested via CreateCheckpoint; implicit - minted automatically by the platform (on run completion, or when ForkSession is called without from_checkpoint_id).
label
optional
before-refactorOptional user-supplied label from CreateCheckpoint; empty when omitted.
session_id
optional
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890Owning session.
size_bytes
optional
1048576Size of the captured machine state. 0 until the checkpoint reaches READY.
status
optional
READYCapture lifecycle: PENDING -> READY | FAILED. Only READY checkpoints are forkable/restorable. CreateCheckpoint blocks until terminal, so PENDING is only ever observable via list/get while a capture is in flight.

Authorizations:
bearer_auth
(1 scope)
OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
In-place restore: boots a fresh sandbox from the checkpoint and atomically swaps the session's sandbox pointer to it, so the session keeps its same session_id; the old sandbox is then torn down.
Path Parameters
session_id
required
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890The session UUID.
checkpoint_id
required
cp_9f2c1a4bThe checkpoint id.
Request: /v2/agents/sessions/{session_id}/checkpoints/{checkpoint_id}/rollback

200
The session after in-place rollback: same session_id, sandbox_id swapped to the restored VM.
ratelimit-limit
The default limit on number of requests that can be made per hour and per minute. Current rate limits are 5000 requests per hour and 250 requests per minute.
ratelimit-remaining
The number of requests in your hourly quota that remain before you hit your request limit. See https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/#rate-limit for information about how requests expire.
ratelimit-reset
The time when the oldest request will expire. The value is given in Unix epoch time. See https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/#rate-limit for information about how requests expire.
application/json
session
optional
Session is the user-facing record of a environment session + sandbox pair.
Show child properties
agent_kind
optional
AGENT_KIND_UNSPECIFIEDAgentKind identifies what runs inside the session sandbox. CreateSession accepts CLAUDE_CODE, OPENCODE, CODEX_CLI, CURSOR_CLI, OPENAI_CODEX, LANGGRAPH, and CREWAI (the supported set is overridable via HARNESS_SUPPORTED_AGENT_KINDS); other values are rejected with 400. AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX is the OpenAI sandbox-provider kind (DO runs codex exec-server; the agent loop lives at OpenAI). AGENT_KIND_LANGGRAPH is the LangGraph framework adapter. AGENT_KIND_CREWAI is the CrewAI Crew framework adapter: like LANGGRAPH the template bakes no agent code, so spec.env must supply FRAMEWORK_REPO and FRAMEWORK_REPO_SHA; a Crew kickoff is one-shot and exposes no HITL surface. CREWAI is additionally gated per team and returns 400 for teams it is not enabled for.
config_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Durable Environment Config UUID the session was created from (inline manifests persist a config too, named after the session). Persisted and returned on create/get/list; absent only for sessions created before config references were stored.
created_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00Zfork_from_checkpoint_id
optional
exampleLineage: harness-api checkpoint id (cp_
fork_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Lineage: branch label assigned when this session was created by ForkSession (or rollback's internal fork). Omitted/empty for root sessions.
idle_timeout_seconds
optional
60This session's own idle-pause timeout (manifest idle_timeout). Omitted when the session uses the deployment-wide default.
keep_warm
optional
falseSession is exempt from idle auto-pause (manifest keep_warm, or the agent-kind default: hermes sessions keep warm). Pause requests against such a session are rejected with 409. Omitted when false.
last_event_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00ZTimestamp of the most recent event in this session's canonical stream. Drives the inactivity policy that pauses idle sessions.
name
optional
demo-agentUser-assignable display name, unique per team among non-terminal sessions. Usable in place of session_id by clients (doctl / Console resolve it to the id via the ListSessions ?name= filter; the {session_id} path stays UUID-only). Supplied via the environment-spec metadata.name, or auto-generated ("session-
openai_environment_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API environment id (env_…), captured from the resolved CODEX_ENVIRONMENT_ID guest env value. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions. Non-secret correlation metadata.
openai_session_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API session id (sess_…) this DO sandbox hosts. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions (empty otherwise). Non-secret correlation metadata; a client (doctl agents attach) reads it to bridge to the OpenAI session. See docs/design/openai-sandbox-provider.md.
parent_session_id
optional
exampleLineage: id of the session this one was forked from. Omitted/empty for root (non-fork) sessions.
pause_reason
optional
exampleWhy this session is paused. Present only when status is SESSION_STATUS_PAUSED; omitted otherwise. Known values: manual (PauseSession RPC), idle (inactivity auto-pause), low_balance (prepay gate). Clients should treat an unrecognized value as an opaque reason string.
repo_hint
optional
exampleOptional repository hint supplied at session creation (first spec.workspace.repos entry of the manifest). Not authoritative; the agent may change repos in-session.
resume_on_topoff
optional
falseSession consents to being resumed automatically when the team's prepayment balance is restored after a low-balance pause. Defaults to false at create time; may be toggled later via PATCH /v2/agents/sessions/{session_id} (resume_on_topoff only). Only a session paused with reason low_balance whose latest run did not complete is ever resumed automatically - a session the customer paused themselves, or one that idled out, stays paused regardless. Not an environment-spec field, and forks do not inherit it. Omitted when false.
sandbox_id
optional
exampleSandbox identity for support / debugging. Informational; omitted until a sandbox is allocated.
session_id
optional
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890status
optional
SESSION_STATUS_UNSPECIFIEDSessionStatus is the lifecycle state of the sandbox + agent pair. SESSION_STATUS_ALL is a ListSessions status-filter value only -- no session is ever actually in this status. SESSION_STATUS_LOCKED is reserved for internal use and never appears in an end-user-facing response.
warnings
optional
[]Non-fatal advisories computed from the manifest at create time: one entry per populated accepted-but-not-yet-enforced section (flat names: secrets, model, tools, memory, budget, max_lifetime, mounts; legacy manifests get the corresponding spec.* paths), a deprecation entry when a legacy-envelope manifest or an adapter alias (codex-cli, cursor-cli) is used, and a heuristic entry per credential-looking spec.env value. Populated on the CreateSession response only.
401
Authentication failed due to invalid credentials.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.

Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Each child boots a fresh sandbox from the checkpoint's machine-state capture and is drivable exactly like any other session (input, HITL), with parent_session_id and fork_id set for lineage. When from_checkpoint_id is omitted, an implicit checkpoint of the session "now" is captured first and the children fork from that. All-or-nothing: on failure nothing is left running.
Path Parameters
session_id
required
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890The session UUID.
Request Body: application/json
Optional; an empty or omitted body forks a single child from an implicit checkpoint of "now".
count
optional
Number of child sessions to create, 1-4. Defaults to 1 when omitted; a value outside 1-4 is rejected with 400.
from_checkpoint_id
optional
Checkpoint to fork from; must be READY. Omitted/empty means capture an implicit checkpoint of the session "now" first and fork from that.

200
The created child sessions (each a full Session, PROVISIONING -> READY).
ratelimit-limit
The default limit on number of requests that can be made per hour and per minute. Current rate limits are 5000 requests per hour and 250 requests per minute.
ratelimit-remaining
The number of requests in your hourly quota that remain before you hit your request limit. See https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/#rate-limit for information about how requests expire.
ratelimit-reset
The time when the oldest request will expire. The value is given in Unix epoch time. See https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/#rate-limit for information about how requests expire.
application/json
sessions
optional
The created child sessions, each a full Session with parent_session_id and fork_id set (PROVISIONING -> READY) and drivable exactly like any other session.
Show child properties
agent_kind
optional
AGENT_KIND_UNSPECIFIEDAgentKind identifies what runs inside the session sandbox. CreateSession accepts CLAUDE_CODE, OPENCODE, CODEX_CLI, CURSOR_CLI, OPENAI_CODEX, LANGGRAPH, and CREWAI (the supported set is overridable via HARNESS_SUPPORTED_AGENT_KINDS); other values are rejected with 400. AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX is the OpenAI sandbox-provider kind (DO runs codex exec-server; the agent loop lives at OpenAI). AGENT_KIND_LANGGRAPH is the LangGraph framework adapter. AGENT_KIND_CREWAI is the CrewAI Crew framework adapter: like LANGGRAPH the template bakes no agent code, so spec.env must supply FRAMEWORK_REPO and FRAMEWORK_REPO_SHA; a Crew kickoff is one-shot and exposes no HITL surface. CREWAI is additionally gated per team and returns 400 for teams it is not enabled for.
config_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Durable Environment Config UUID the session was created from (inline manifests persist a config too, named after the session). Persisted and returned on create/get/list; absent only for sessions created before config references were stored.
created_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00Zfork_from_checkpoint_id
optional
exampleLineage: harness-api checkpoint id (cp_
fork_id
optional
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555Lineage: branch label assigned when this session was created by ForkSession (or rollback's internal fork). Omitted/empty for root sessions.
idle_timeout_seconds
optional
60This session's own idle-pause timeout (manifest idle_timeout). Omitted when the session uses the deployment-wide default.
keep_warm
optional
falseSession is exempt from idle auto-pause (manifest keep_warm, or the agent-kind default: hermes sessions keep warm). Pause requests against such a session are rejected with 409. Omitted when false.
last_event_at
optional
2026-08-01T12:00:00ZTimestamp of the most recent event in this session's canonical stream. Drives the inactivity policy that pauses idle sessions.
name
optional
demo-agentUser-assignable display name, unique per team among non-terminal sessions. Usable in place of session_id by clients (doctl / Console resolve it to the id via the ListSessions ?name= filter; the {session_id} path stays UUID-only). Supplied via the environment-spec metadata.name, or auto-generated ("session-
openai_environment_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API environment id (env_…), captured from the resolved CODEX_ENVIRONMENT_ID guest env value. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions. Non-secret correlation metadata.
openai_session_id
optional
exampleOpenAI Agents API session id (sess_…) this DO sandbox hosts. Populated only for AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX sessions (empty otherwise). Non-secret correlation metadata; a client (doctl agents attach) reads it to bridge to the OpenAI session. See docs/design/openai-sandbox-provider.md.
parent_session_id
optional
exampleLineage: id of the session this one was forked from. Omitted/empty for root (non-fork) sessions.
pause_reason
optional
exampleWhy this session is paused. Present only when status is SESSION_STATUS_PAUSED; omitted otherwise. Known values: manual (PauseSession RPC), idle (inactivity auto-pause), low_balance (prepay gate). Clients should treat an unrecognized value as an opaque reason string.
repo_hint
optional
exampleOptional repository hint supplied at session creation (first spec.workspace.repos entry of the manifest). Not authoritative; the agent may change repos in-session.
resume_on_topoff
optional
falseSession consents to being resumed automatically when the team's prepayment balance is restored after a low-balance pause. Defaults to false at create time; may be toggled later via PATCH /v2/agents/sessions/{session_id} (resume_on_topoff only). Only a session paused with reason low_balance whose latest run did not complete is ever resumed automatically - a session the customer paused themselves, or one that idled out, stays paused regardless. Not an environment-spec field, and forks do not inherit it. Omitted when false.
sandbox_id
optional
exampleSandbox identity for support / debugging. Informational; omitted until a sandbox is allocated.
session_id
optional
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890status
optional
SESSION_STATUS_UNSPECIFIEDSessionStatus is the lifecycle state of the sandbox + agent pair. SESSION_STATUS_ALL is a ListSessions status-filter value only -- no session is ever actually in this status. SESSION_STATUS_LOCKED is reserved for internal use and never appears in an end-user-facing response.
warnings
optional
[]Non-fatal advisories computed from the manifest at create time: one entry per populated accepted-but-not-yet-enforced section (flat names: secrets, model, tools, memory, budget, max_lifetime, mounts; legacy manifests get the corresponding spec.* paths), a deprecation entry when a legacy-envelope manifest or an adapter alias (codex-cli, cursor-cli) is used, and a heuristic entry per credential-looking spec.env value. Populated on the CreateSession response only.
401
Authentication failed due to invalid credentials.

Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
harness-api forwards the decision into the owning microVM via the inbound runtime.v1.OHR.ResolveHITL RPC (dialed through the guest-fronting proxy), which unblocks the gated agent action. The resolution is also echoed to all attached clients as a HITLResolved event on StreamSession. Returns 204 No Content on success.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
The agent observes it on its next turn and emits subsequent events via StreamSession. The input is forwarded to the owning microVM's OHR inbound surface, which attributes it to a run and returns the run id.

The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.

Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Supported on microvm-substrate sessions only; dewdrop/docker sessions return 501 Not Implemented. Paused sessions count against quota. Clients learn state via GetSession/ListSessions; no live session.updated event is emitted.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Runs argv directly in the guest (no shell). Stdout/stderr are buffered and capped at 1 MiB each;
truncation is indicated via response headers when present. A non-zero exit code is still HTTP 200.
Path Parameters
session_id
required
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890The session UUID.
Request Body: application/json
Command to run inside the sandbox.
argv
required
["uname","-a"]Program and arguments. Required and non-empty; run directly, with no shell interpretation.
stdin
optional
Optional base64 stdin payload, delivered in full and then closed so the process sees EOF. One-shot only — there is no streaming stdin on this endpoint.
timeout_seconds
optional
60Optional timeout. Clamped server-side (default 60, maximum 240) regardless of the value sent.
workdir
optional
/workspaceWorking directory inside the sandbox. Empty uses the sandbox default (/workspace); not restricted to the workspace root.

Streams the workspace payload back as application/octet-stream using chunked transfer encoding, followed by a fixed integrity footer.
Response body layout: <payload> + <footer>, where the footer is exactly 73 bytes: DOWSSHA1 (8 bytes) + 64-char lowercase SHA-256 hex + \n. The client MUST strip the trailing 73 bytes before saving, verify SHA-256(payload) equals the footer digest, and treat a tail that does not match this shape (magic + 64 hex + newline) as a failed (truncated/corrupt) transfer.
Other metadata:
X-Workspace-Is-Archive: truewhen the payload is a tar archive.X-Workspace-Size-Bytesis a progress hint (not Content-Length) and excludes the footer.- The
X-Content-Sha256trailer also carries the digest but is best-effort: edge proxies may strip HTTP trailers, so the body footer is authoritative.
Concurrent transfers (upload + download) are capped server-side; over the cap the request blocks and may return 503.

Authorizations:
bearer_auth
(1 scope)
OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Creates an asynchronous, object-storage-backed transfer for payloads larger than the streaming path supports (> ~50 MiB). Bulk bytes never traverse harness-api: the client PUTs/GETs presigned DO Spaces URLs directly.
Set direction to upload or download.
upload: responds 201 withtransfer_id+part_size; the client then requests per-part presigned PUT URLs, uploads them to Spaces, and callscommit.download: responds 202 withtransfer_id; the client polls GET untilcompletedand then fetchesdownload_urlfrom Spaces.
Upload and cancel currently return 501 until the sandbox backend RPCs ship; download is live.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Returns the current transfer state. For a completed download the response also carries a freshly minted presigned GET download_url (its TTL starts at poll time) and the payload sha256 for client-side verification.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"

| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Upload only. Pass one or more 1-based part_numbers; the response returns a presigned upload_url per part (all sharing one expires_at), so a client can drive parallel part uploads without a round trip per part. PUT each part's bytes directly to its URL (bypassing harness-api). If URLs expire before the PUT, request them again.

Authorizations:

(1 scope)
OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Streams the raw request body to a path inside the sandbox workspace. Concurrent transfers (upload + download) are capped server-side; over the cap the request blocks and may return 503. The optional X-Content-Sha256 request header carries a hex digest the guest verifies after the full payload is written.
Path Parameters
session_id
required
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890The session UUID.
Query Parameters
path
required
exampleDestination path inside the sandbox workspace. Relative paths resolve under the workspace root; paths that escape the workspace are rejected. Required.
is_archive
optional
trueIf true, the body is a tar stream that the guest extracts under path. Defaults to false (single file).
Header Parameters
X-Content-Sha256
optional
exampleOptional hex SHA-256 of the full payload. The guest verifies it after writing; a mismatch returns 400.
Request Body: application/octet-stream
Raw file bytes (or tar stream when is_archive=true). Capped at 500 MiB.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Opens a text/event-stream of the session's canonical events, served by the MARS data plane (OHP).
Each frame is event: <type> plus a data: line holding a JSON event envelope; comment lines
(: keepalive) arrive about every 15s and must be ignored. Decode every data: with one envelope
parser and dispatch on the envelope's type. Every stream opens with a stream.state control frame
(its data is a stream_state).
Delivery is at-least-once: clients MUST de-duplicate and order by event_id (a ULID), never by
seq. The same path serves two modes:
- live attach (default): recent context, then an open stream that stays live until the client
disconnects. Pass
Last-Event-ID(orcursor) to resume strictly after the last event the client already rendered, suppressing the last-N context floor. - finite replay (
replay_only=true): writes a bounded slice of the stored transcript and closes. This is whatdoctl agents logsuses; paginate it withreplay_from.
OHP serves recent history only (bounded by Kafka retention and an event window); it is not an
archive. OHP's own errors (404/429/500/503) use the DO-standard JSON {id, message, request_id}
envelope (cthulhu#179797 / MARSOHS-2065); the 401 comes from the edge.
Path Parameters
session_id
required
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890The session UUID.
Query Parameters
replay_only
optional
falseWrite the selected history and then close the stream, rather than going live. Does not advance the device's delivery cursor, so it never supersedes a live attach from the same device.
Default:falsereplay_from
optional
Event-id pagination cursor for the replay_only lane only; return events after this one. There is no last-N floor, so a cursor already at the head yields nothing. Ignored on a live attach.
cursor
optional
Query-param equivalent of Last-Event-ID, because a browser EventSource cannot set request headers. Takes precedence over the header when both are present. Live-attach lane only.
device_id
optional
Query-param equivalent of X-Device-UUID. Identifies one client install so its delivery cursor and live slot are its own; a second attach from the same device supersedes the first.
Header Parameters
Last-Event-ID
optional
01K9YQ0R2M4A7XThe last event this client rendered (not merely received). Its presence marks the request a reconnect, so OHP serves strictly what follows it with no last-N floor. Persist it only after rendering.
X-Device-UUID
optional
d1e2f3a4-b5c6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890A stable per-install device id. See device_id.

| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Upgrades the request to a WebSocket and bridges it to one TCP connection on the session sandbox's
guest port. Binary frames carry the opaque byte stream in both directions; the server closes with
a descriptive WebSocket close code when the tunnel ends. This is the raw TCP tunnel; browser clients
reaching the in-guest OpenHands Agent Server use the ingress URL
(GET /v2/agents/sessions/{session_id}/ingress), which has replaced this bridge for them.
WebSocket is not expressible in OpenAPI; this documents the GET that initiates the upgrade handshake
(HTTP 101 Switching Protocols). The handler dials the guest before upgrading, so a PAUSED session is
woken and served rather than rejected. port must be between 1024 and 65535. A request without the
WebSocket upgrade headers is answered 400 by the handshake layer.
Path Parameters
session_id
required
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890The session UUID.
port
1024 – 65535 required
8000The guest TCP port to connect to. Must be between 1024 and 65535.
Request: /v2/agents/sessions/{session_id}/port-forward/{port}
curl -i -N \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" \
-H "Connection: Upgrade" \
-H "Upgrade: websocket" \
-H "Sec-WebSocket-Version: 13" \
-H "Sec-WebSocket-Key: $(openssl rand -base64 16)" \
"https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/agents/sessions/{session_id}/port-forward/8000"curl -X GET \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $API_TOKEN" \
"https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/agents/sessions/{session_id}/port-forward/{port}"Responses
101
Switching Protocols. The WebSocket handshake succeeded and the connection is now a binary tunnel to the guest port.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.

Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Publishes the URL on first call and returns it. Idempotent while the session runs: the same URL is
returned until the session is paused, locked or rolled back, after which the next call returns a new
hostname (pause and lock revoke the URL; rollback moves the session to a new sandbox, so re-fetch
after resume, unlock or rollback). The URL fronts guest port 8000 (the OpenHands Agent Server,
HTTP + WebSocket) and replaces the port-forward bridge for browser clients. Requests to the URL carry
the caller's DO token as a Bearer header. Poll until state is INGRESS_URL_STATE_READY; there is no
failed state. Only OpenHands sessions support ingress, and it is gated per team.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
team_id is stamped from the authenticated principal; never accepted from the client.
Query Parameters

Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.

Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).

| GET | Read | <resource>:read |

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.

Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type

Authorizations:
bearer_auth
(1 scope)
OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Validation is synchronous, so a mistake is a 400/409 at creation, not a silent miss at the first
fire. Exactly one of webhook / cron must be present and match kind. kind=cron forbids a
webhook block and requires a parseable cron.cron_expr and a valid IANA cron.timezone.
session_mode=fresh requires session_template (a well-formed agents.yaml Agent manifest) and
forbids bound_session_id; session_mode=reuse requires bound_session_id (an existing team-owned
session) and forbids session_template. output.mode selects the destination block (email/slack),
which is stored encrypted. name must be unique per team among non-deleted triggers.
For webhook triggers the response includes webhook_secret exactly ONCE - it is never returned
again. Cron triggers return no secret and carry a computed trigger.cron.next_run_at. The team and
user identity are taken from the authenticated principal, never the body.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Returns the trigger that produced (fresh) or binds (reuse) the given session. Resolves to the row even after the trigger is soft-deleted.
Path Parameters
session_id
required
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890The session UUID.
Request: /v2/agents/triggers/by-session/{session_id}

200
The trigger that produced (fresh) or binds (reuse) this session.
ratelimit-limit
The default limit on number of requests that can be made per hour and per minute. Current rate limits are 5000 requests per hour and 250 requests per minute.
ratelimit-remaining
The number of requests in your hourly quota that remain before you hit your request limit. See https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/#rate-limit for information about how requests expire.
ratelimit-reset
The time when the oldest request will expire. The value is given in Unix epoch time. See https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/reference/#rate-limit for information about how requests expire.
application/json
trigger
optional
A single automation bound to exactly one agent/session (agent == session in v1). The nested block present depends on kind (webhook xor cron) and session_mode (fresh => session_template; reuse => bound_session_id). agent_kind is read-only and derived; the webhook secret, the output email address / Slack webhook URL, and any env values inside session_template are write-only and never returned.
Show child properties
agent_kind
optional
AGENT_KIND_UNSPECIFIEDAgentKind identifies what runs inside the session sandbox. CreateSession accepts CLAUDE_CODE, OPENCODE, CODEX_CLI, CURSOR_CLI, OPENAI_CODEX, LANGGRAPH, and CREWAI (the supported set is overridable via HARNESS_SUPPORTED_AGENT_KINDS); other values are rejected with 400. AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX is the OpenAI sandbox-provider kind (DO runs codex exec-server; the agent loop lives at OpenAI). AGENT_KIND_LANGGRAPH is the LangGraph framework adapter. AGENT_KIND_CREWAI is the CrewAI Crew framework adapter: like LANGGRAPH the template bakes no agent code, so spec.env must supply FRAMEWORK_REPO and FRAMEWORK_REPO_SHA; a Crew kickoff is one-shot and exposes no HITL surface. CREWAI is additionally gated per team and returns 400 for teams it is not enabled for.
bound_session_id
optional
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890Present iff session_mode=reuse. UUID of the existing PAUSED session this trigger resumes; may be shared by multiple triggers.

session_mode
optional
freshfresh = a new session is created from the trigger's spec on every firing and destroyed after. reuse = the trigger binds an existing PAUSED session, resumed on each firing and paused after; multiple triggers may bind one session.
session_template
optional

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
GetTrigger returns a single trigger by id. Write-only fields (webhook secret, output destination, session_template env values) are never included.
Path Parameters
trigger_id
required
b1a0c6de-1f2e-4a3b-9c8d-0e1f2a3b4c5dThe trigger UUID.

trigger
optional
A single automation bound to exactly one agent/session (agent == session in v1). The nested block present depends on kind (webhook xor cron) and session_mode (fresh => session_template; reuse => bound_session_id). agent_kind is read-only and derived; the webhook secret, the output email address / Slack webhook URL, and any env values inside session_template are write-only and never returned.

agent_kind
optional
AGENT_KIND_UNSPECIFIEDAgentKind identifies what runs inside the session sandbox. CreateSession accepts CLAUDE_CODE, OPENCODE, CODEX_CLI, CURSOR_CLI, OPENAI_CODEX, LANGGRAPH, and CREWAI (the supported set is overridable via HARNESS_SUPPORTED_AGENT_KINDS); other values are rejected with 400. AGENT_KIND_OPENAI_CODEX is the OpenAI sandbox-provider kind (DO runs codex exec-server; the agent loop lives at OpenAI). AGENT_KIND_LANGGRAPH is the LangGraph framework adapter. AGENT_KIND_CREWAI is the CrewAI Crew framework adapter: like LANGGRAPH the template bakes no agent code, so spec.env must supply FRAMEWORK_REPO and FRAMEWORK_REPO_SHA; a Crew kickoff is one-shot and exposes no HITL surface. CREWAI is additionally gated per team and returns 400 for teams it is not enabled for.

output, session_template (fresh), bound_session_id (reuse), cron.cron_expr /
cron.timezone (recomputes next_run_at). Re-enabling never produces a catch-up run. PATCHing
session_template is a full replacement, so every spec.secrets slot value the new manifest declares

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Marks the trigger deleted, fails any pending executions, and purges the webhook secret / cron schedule. A fresh trigger owns no session; a reuse trigger only UNBINDS - it never destroys the customer's session. Execution history and by-session lookups continue to resolve to the deleted row. Returns 204 No Content on success.

Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.

Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.

Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth

curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Fails the execution and frees the trigger's in-flight slot. A fresh-mode session is destroyed outright. A reuse-mode session is only paused, not stopped - harness has no run-interrupt call, so the agent's turn may still be in flight server-side; this frees the queue, not necessarily the agent's work. A non-running execution is a no-op that still returns 200.
Path Parameters
trigger_id
required
b1a0c6de-1f2e-4a3b-9c8d-0e1f2a3b4c5dThe trigger UUID.

Authorizations:
bearer_auth
(1 scope)
OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
Webhook triggers only (409 for cron). Issues a new secret (shown once) and moves the old value to the previous slot, where it keeps verifying deliveries until previous_secret_expires_at. Default grace is 5 minutes when grace_period_seconds is omitted, so deliveries already in flight (signed with the old value) still succeed while the customer updates their external system. After that instant the old value is refused with 401. Pass grace_period_seconds=0 to retire the old secret on this call (breach response), or a positive value (up to the server max, default 1 hour) for a custom window; above the max is 400.
Path Parameters
trigger_id
required
b1a0c6de-1f2e-4a3b-9c8d-0e1f2a3b4c5dThe trigger UUID.
Query Parameters
grace_period_seconds
>= 0 optional
300How long the outgoing secret keeps verifying deliveries. Omit for the default (5 minutes). 0 retires the old secret immediately (compromised-secret path). Positive values set a custom window up to the server max (default 1 hour); above the max is 400. Send at most once with an explicit non-negative integer - bare keys, empty values, non-integers, negatives, and duplicates are 400.

}POST ReceiveTriggerWebhook accepts a signed delivery from an external system.
/v2/agents/triggers/{trigger_id}/webhook
The one public, un-team-authenticated endpoint. There is NO DO bearer token: the caller is the customer's external system. Authentication is the per-trigger HMAC secret, verified on every delivery; edge rate-limiting is mandatory.
The request body is the provider's RAW body, forwarded verbatim (the HMAC is computed over the exact bytes received); Content-Type is provider-defined and passed through. The signature header depends on the trigger's provider:
- github:
X-Hub-Signature-256: sha256=<hex>(HMAC-SHA256 of the raw body) - gitlab:
X-Gitlab-Token: <token>(plaintext token equality; GitLab does not sign) - custom:
X-DigitalOcean-Signature: t=<unix>,v1=<hex>(HMAC-SHA256 of{unix}.{raw body};do-signatureis also accepted as a transitional alias)
On success (including a provider retry that dedupes to an existing firing) it returns 202 with the execution_id. A delivery to a paused trigger returns 202 with no body and queues nothing (deliberately not 409, so providers do not auto-disable the webhook after repeated non-2xx).
Path Parameters
trigger_id
required
b1a0c6de-1f2e-4a3b-9c8d-0e1f2a3b4c5dThe trigger UUID.
Request Body: application/octet-stream
The provider's raw webhook body, forwarded verbatim. The HMAC is computed over these exact bytes.
Content-Type is provider-defined (GitHub sends application/json, some providers form-encode) and
passed through; the handler reads the raw bytes regardless of type. Documented as a single
application/octet-stream body so client generators can model the raw payload.

OAuth Authentication
In order to interact with the DigitalOcean API, you or your application must authenticate.
The DigitalOcean API handles this through OAuth, an open standard for authorization. OAuth allows you to delegate access to your account. Scopes can be used to grant full access, read-only access, or access to a specific set of endpoints.
You can generate an OAuth token by visiting the Apps & API section of the DigitalOcean control panel for your account.
An OAuth token functions as a complete authentication request. In effect, it acts as a substitute for a username and password pair.
Because of this, it is absolutely essential that you keep your OAuth tokens secure. In fact, upon generation, the web interface will only display each token a single time in order to prevent the token from being compromised.
DigitalOcean access tokens begin with an identifiable prefix in order to distinguish them from other similar tokens.
dop_v1_for personal access tokens generated in the control paneldoo_v1_for tokens generated by applications using the OAuth flowdor_v1_for OAuth refresh tokens
Scopes
Scopes act like permissions assigned to an API token. These permissions determine what actions the token can perform. You can create API tokens that grant read-only access, full access, or limited access to specific endpoints by using custom scopes.
Generally, scopes are designed to match HTTP verbs and common CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
| HTTP Verb | CRUD Operation | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| GET | Read | <resource>:read |
| POST | Create | <resource>:create |
| PUT/PATCH | Update | <resource>:update |
| DELETE | Delete | <resource>:delete |
For example, creating a new Droplet by making a POST request to the
/v2/droplets endpoint requires the droplet:create scope while
listing Droplets by making a GET request to the /v2/droplets
endpoint requires the droplet:read scope.
Each endpoint below specifies which scope is required to access it when using custom scopes.
How to Authenticate with OAuth
In order to make an authenticated request, include a bearer-type
Authorization header containing your OAuth token. All requests must be
made over HTTPS.
Authenticate with a Bearer Authorization Header
curl -X $HTTP_METHOD -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/$OBJECT"
A static, code-defined registry (not a database table), webhook-only. Cron triggers have no provider and never call this. Used to populate the provider dropdown with display name, docs link, paste hint, and the signature scheme.
Request: /v2/agents/webhook-providers
curl -X GET \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" \
"https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/agents/webhook-providers"curl -X GET \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $API_TOKEN" \
