The DX is great until you think of using their rest api (not for machines) and the link Google gives you to their docs is a very very incomplete page with even the base url obselete and you're left browsing the forum to understand why your requests don't work ;)

What rest api is that? If it’s not the machines api it’s in graphql at api.fly.io/graphql.

The one at https://api.fly.io/api/v1/ ?

That’s an old api we need to sunset. How did you stumble on it?

By clicking on the first Google result for "fly.io rest api" ;)
