Prometheus Metrics

import { Registry, Counter, Histogram, Gauge } from 'prom-client';

const registry = new Registry();
registry.setDefaultLabels({ app: 'miro-integration' });

  name: 'miro_requests_total',
  help: 'Total Miro REST API v2 requests',

  registers: [registry],
});

const rateLimitUsed = new Gauge({

Instrumented API Client

class InstrumentedMiroClient {
  async fetch<T>(path: string, method = 'GET', body?: unknown): Promise<T> {
    const endpoint = this.normalizeEndpoint(path);
    const timer = requestDuration.startTimer({ method, endpoint });

    try {
      const response = await fetch(`https://api.miro.com${path}`, {
        method,
        headers: {
          'Authorization': `Bearer ${this.token}`,
          'Content-Type': 'application/json',
        },
        ...(body ? { body: JSON.stringify(body) } : {}),
      });

      // Update rate limit metrics from response headers
      const remaining = response.headers.get('X-RateLimit-Remaining');
      const limit = response.headers.get('X-RateLimit-Limit');
      if (remaining) rateLimitRemaining.set(parseInt(remaining));
      if (remaining && limit) {
        rateLimitUsed.set(parseInt(limit) - parseInt(remaining));
      }

      requestCounter.inc({ method, endpoint, status: String(response.status) });

      if (!response.ok) {
        const errorType = response.status === 429 ? 'rate_limit'
          : response.status === 401 ? 'auth'
          : response.status >= 500 ? 'server'
          : 'client';
        errorCounter.inc({ error_type: errorType, endpoint });
        throw new MiroApiError(response.status, await response.text());
      }

      return response.status === 204 ? null as T : await response.json();
    } catch (error) {
      if (!(error instanceof MiroApiError)) {
        errorCounter.inc({ error_type: 'network', endpoint });
      }
      throw error;
    } finally {
      timer();
    }
  }

  // Normalize endpoints for metric cardinality control
  // /v2/boards/uXjVN123/items/345 → /v2/boards/{id}/items/{id}
  private normalizeEndpoint(path: string): string {
    return path
      .replace(/\/boards\/[^/]+/, '/boards/{id}')
      .replace(/\/items\/[^/]+/, '/items/{id}')
      .replace(/\/sticky_notes\/[^/]+/, '/sticky_notes/{id}')

OpenTelemetry Tracing

import { trace, SpanStatusCode, context } from '@opentelemetry/api';

const tracer = trace.getTracer('miro-client', '1.0.0');

async function tracedMiroFetch<T>(
  path: string,
  method: string,
  body?: unknown,
): Promise<T> {
  const endpoint = normalizeEndpoint(path);

  return tracer.startActiveSpan(`miro.${method} ${endpoint}`, async (span) => {
    span.setAttribute('miro.method', method);
    span.setAttribute('miro.endpoint', endpoint);
    span.setAttribute('miro.api_version', 'v2');

    try {
      const result = await instrumentedClient.fetch<T>(path, method, body);
      span.setStatus({ code: SpanStatusCode.OK });
      return result;
    } catch (error: any) {
      span.setStatus({ code: SpanStatusCode.ERROR, message: error.message });
      span.setAttribute('miro.error_status', error.status ?? 0);
      span.recordException(error);
      throw error;
    } finally {
      span.end();
    }
  });
}

Structured Logging

import pino from 'pino';

const logger = pino({
  name: 'miro-integration',
  level: process.env.LOG_LEVEL ?? 'info',
  redact: ['token', 'accessToken', 'refreshToken', 'Authorization'],
});

function logMiroRequest(method: string, path: string, status: number, durationMs: number) {
  logger.info({
    service: 'miro',
    event: 'api_request',
    method,
    path: normalizeEndpoint(path),
    status,
    durationMs: Math.round(durationMs),
    rateLimitRemaining: currentRateLimitRemaining,
  });
}

function logWebhookEvent(event: MiroBoardEvent) {
  logger.info({
    service: 'miro',
    event: 'webhook_received',
    eventType: event.type,           // create | update | delete
    itemType: event.item.type,       // sticky_note | shape | card | etc.
    boardId: event.boardId,
    itemId: event.item.id,
  });
}
