Authentication

Use a dft_ account token with alerts:read.
A df_ website API key for the same website can also call this route when the path websiteId matches the key's website. Write access with a df_ key is capped at member level — owner-only actions such as team management require a dft_ token and owner role.

Errors

See API errors for the standard error envelope, auth failures, validation errors, permission errors, and rate limits.
