Latency Testing API
Ddosify Latency Testing API
You can instantly start a geo-targeted latency test or you can create/delete/update a latency test plan to re-use it with Latency API.
You will see the
locations key in the request body of related API endpoints. The usage of this key let you able to perform latency test for desired locations. You can target from continent to city by using the below format.
["<continent_code>.<country_code>.<state_code_if_exists>.<city_code>", ...]locations | Target Locations |
|---|---|
["NA.US.TX.DA"] | Dallas |
["NA.US.TX.*"] | All supported cities in Texas |
["NA.US.*"] | All supported cities in USA |
["EU.FR.PR"] | Paris |
["NA.US.*", "EU.FR.PR"] | All supported cities in USA and Paris |
["*"] | All supported cities |
All endpoints require the
X-API-KEY header for authentication. Please check the Get Your API Key section to learn how you can get it.You'll be charged for 5K Requests for every successful latency test.
API concurrency limit is 5 requests per second for GET endpoints and 2 requests per second for others. You will get
HTTP 429 (Concurrency Limit Exceeded) when you reach the concurrency.get

You can create periodic latency tests with the scheduling mechanism. The scheduler is basically a wrapper over Latency Test Plan to make it periodically runnable with the given configurations.
Key | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
name | String | Scheduler name |
interval | String | Interval time between each run.
Format: "(digit)(s|m|h)"
Examples:
"30s" : Runs every 30 seconds
"4m" : Runs every 4 minutes
"1h" : Runs every 1 hour |
is_active | Bool | Enable/disable logic for the scheduler |
total_run_count | Integer | The maximum number of run counts for the scheduler.
If it is null then the scheduler runs forever. |
test_plan_id | UUID | Latency Test Plan to be used by scheduler |
run_count | Integer | This is a read-only field and is updated by the scheduler every time a test is finished. |
The minimum
interval value is "30s".At the beginning of each
interval, the Scheduler first checks is_active to be sure that the scheduler is active. Then it controls if the number of test runs reached its maximum value by comparing total_run_count with run_count. If these two checks passed, the scheduler starts a new Latency Test by using the Latency Test Plan. Be careful about the infinite Schedulers (when
total_run_count is null). They run forever until you stop them.post
