Cloud API Platform / Overview

From API overview to your first reliable request.

Focused, predictable documentation for building secure cloud integrations without slowing down implementation.

Start Building
  • Clear docs. Scan patterns quickly.
  • Secure access. Auth made explicit.
  • Fast integration. Start with a request.

REST
01

Client request

POST /v1/events

02

Authenticate

Bearer API_KEY

03

API response

201 ยท event accepted

A simple request path: authenticate once, then build against stable endpoints.

Authentication

Make your first authenticated request.

Use an API key for server-to-server access, then keep it out of source control.

  1. Create an API key

    In the dashboard, create a key with the minimum scopes your integration needs.

  2. Send the key with every request

    Pass it in the Authorization: Bearer header over HTTPS.

  3. Store and rotate credentials safely

    Load keys from your secret manager, limit access, and rotate them on a regular schedule.

Best practice

Use separate keys for local, staging, and production environments.

Common mistake

Do not expose keys in browser code, public repositories, or client-side logs.

API reference

Endpoints

Use these resource groups to build predictable integrations across your cloud workflow.

Method Resource group
GET

Projects

List and inspect the cloud projects available to the authenticated workspace.

POST

Deployments

Create, monitor, and manage deployment runs for a selected project.

GET

Events

Retrieve delivery events and status changes to keep downstream systems in sync.

GET

Usage

Read current consumption and quota details for operational reporting.

Implementation checklist

4 practices
  • Use consistent request headers, timeouts, and idempotency keys.
  • Handle structured errors and retry only safe, transient failures.
  • Pin to the documented API version before releasing an integration.
  • Follow pagination cursors and inspect response metadata on every collection.

Implementation FAQ

Resolve the details. Keep building.

Practical answers to the questions that most often interrupt a first integration.

How do I set up authentication?
Create an API key in the console, then send it with each request in the Authorization: Bearer header. Keep keys in server-side environment variables.
What rate limits apply?
Limits are applied per API key and returned in response headers. On a 429, wait for the indicated reset time and retry with exponential backoff.
How is API versioning handled?
Use the version in the request path, such as /v1/. Existing versions remain stable during their published support window; pin a version before production rollout.
What is the recommended error-handling pattern?
Check the HTTP status first, then log the response code and request ID. Retry only transient 5xx and 429 responses; treat 4xx responses as actionable client errors.
What support should I expect during integration?
Start with the reference examples and request IDs. If you need help, contact support with the endpoint, timestamp, environment, and redacted request ID for the fastest diagnosis.
