  title: Chaos Mesh Dashboard Archives Schedules API
  description: The Chaos Mesh Dashboard API provides REST endpoints for managing chaos experiments, schedules, workflows, and events on Kubernetes clusters. Chaos Mesh is a cloud-native chaos engineering platform that supports fault injection into pods, nodes, networks, IO subsystems, and cloud provider resources. The Dashboard API is served by the chaos-dashboard component and is the backend for the Chaos Mesh web UI, accessible at /api on the dashboard server.
