Description: Update monitoring, manage users, build API call workflows, and keep applications monitored as fast as your team can type\.

## Summary
Manage your monitoring as code\. Update monitoring, manage users, build API call workflows, and keep applications monitored as fast as your team can type\.

## Stats
- CLI direct project control
- 3\-10 API calls in critical workflows
- npm developer\-native install path
- RBAC user and role operations

## Page sections

### Keep active projects in sync from your terminal\.
Category: Build and monitor with the same tools
The APIContext CLI gives developers a direct connection to API monitoring, so local changes can be pushed into active projects without leaving the development workflow\.

### Build and update API monitoring from the CLI\.
Category: Developer\-native monitoring
Use Node\.js, npm, or tarballs to connect directly to your monitoring\. Manage schedules, API call structures, projects, and alerting without a browser\-only workflow\.

- Install through npm or tarballs
- Make updates locally
- Push changes into active projects

### Keep multi\-call journeys updated easily\.
Category: Advanced workflows
Critical application workflows often take 3 to 10 API calls\. Use call\-builder and workflow operations from the CLI to keep monitoring aligned with the journeys your users depend on\.

- Build multi\-call workflows
- Manage API call sequences
- Keep critical journeys synchronized

### Manage projects, users, and access from one place\.
Category: Project controls
Manage user access, role management, view/edit operations, new projects, and existing projects with granular controls\.

- Manage users and roles
- Deploy and update projects
- Control view/edit operations

### CLI workflows fit into developer terminals, project automation, and operational control loops
Monitoring as code: Build and update API monitoring with developer tooling\. Workflow operations: Create and manage multi\-step API workflows directly from the terminal\. Alerting controls: Manage alerting configuration alongside API call structures and schedules\. Access management: Control users, roles, and permissions through CLI operations\. Fast updates: Push local monitoring changes into active projects quickly\. Docs\-backed: Use documented operations for project and monitoring administration\.
