cURL Example

​
Example 1: Enable Circuit Breaker with Count Threshold

curl -X PATCH \
  "https://demo.apinizer.com/apiops/projects/MyProject/apiProxies/MyAPI/settings/circuit-breaker/" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "circuitBreakerEnabled": true,
    "errorWindow": 60,
    "errorThresholdValue": 5,
    "enumErrorThresholdType": "COUNT",
    "sleepWindow": 30,
    "halfOpenEnabled": true
  }'

​
Example 2: Enable Circuit Breaker with Percentage Threshold

curl -X PATCH \
  "https://demo.apinizer.com/apiops/projects/MyProject/apiProxies/MyAPI/settings/circuit-breaker/" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "circuitBreakerEnabled": true,
    "errorWindow": 120,
    "errorThresholdValue": 50,
    "enumErrorThresholdType": "PERCENT",
    "sleepWindow": 60,
    "halfOpenEnabled": false
  }'

​
Notes and Warnings

  • Error Window: Time window in seconds during which errors are counted
  • Error Threshold: When threshold is reached, circuit breaker opens
  • Sleep Window: Duration in seconds that circuit breaker stays open before attempting half-open
  • Half-Open: When enabled, allows test requests to check if backend recovered
  • Threshold Type: COUNT uses absolute number, PERCENT uses percentage of requests
