== API paths ==
 
The API is able to inject both metrics and events into Veloopti.
 
=== How API paths are created ===
 
When the metrics and events are sent through the API the path is manually written to it using the API. Anything sent without a valid path will be rejected by Veloopti and dismissed. All paths that are created using the api are prefixed with 'api'.
