All API calls must be made over HTTPS. Requests made over plain HTTP will be rejected.

Authentication

All endpoints require an API key passed in the Authorization header:

Request format

• All request bodies are JSON (Content-Type: application/json)
• All timestamps are ISO 8601 UTC strings: 2025-01-15T10:30:00Z
• Pagination uses cursor-based style: pass cursor from the previous response

Response format

All responses are JSON. Successful responses have this envelope:

{
  "data": { ... },
  "meta": {
    "request_id": "req_01HXZ3M...",
    "timestamp": "2025-01-15T10:30:00Z"
  }
}

List responses also include pagination info:

{
  "data": [ ... ],
  "meta": {
    "request_id": "req_01HXZ3M...",
    "timestamp": "2025-01-15T10:30:00Z",
    "pagination": {
      "cursor": "eyJpZCI6MTIzfQ",
      "has_more": true,
      "total": 47
    }
  }
}

Rate limiting

When rate-limited you receive a 429 response with:

{
  "error": {
    "code": "rate_limit_exceeded",
    "message": "Too many requests. Retry after 12 seconds.",
    "retry_after": 12
  }
}

Check the X-RateLimit-Remaining and X-RateLimit-Reset headers on every response.
