Quick Start

For a complete list of all possible API calls, see Definitions.

Authentication

Create an API access token from the MDM pages (see detailed documentation).

Once your token is created, you will have to set it in the header of each request to the API, as follows:

Authorization: Bearer VEOYp1qe7Z0NI3Y4fsBO9MO9QYhpvF

Throttling

API calls are rate-limited to prevent abusive usage which could degrade the performance of the service.

The mechanism limits the number of requests per client for a given time window. Beyond that limit, the API returns an HTTP error (429 Too Many Requests) until the counter is reset, at the end of the time window.

All API requests are limited to a maximum of 2000 requests per hour per client, except for the following part:

  • Exports (/api/organizations/<id>/exports/): 6 requests per minute per client

A client is identified as a user, an API Access Token or as its IP address if it is not authenticated.

Here is a sample response from a request that was rate-limited. The number of seconds to wait before new requests can be sent is given in the Retry-After header.

HTTP 429 Too Many Requests
Allow: GET, POST, HEAD, OPTIONS
Content-Type: application/json
Retry-After: 3254
Vary: Accept

{
    "errors": {
        "detail": "Request was throttled. Expected available in 3254 seconds."
    }
}
