API Quickstart

The OpenAPI documentation can be viewed at API Docs.

If you are just getting started check out the Tutorial for creating your first connector and workflow.

Authentication

The Flexli API uses OAuth2 client credentials flow to issue access tokens.

POST https://auth.flexli.app/oauth2/token HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

grant_type=client_credentials&client_id={{client_id}}&client_secret={{client_secret}}

client_id=''
client_secret=''

curl --location --request POST "https://auth.flexli.app/oauth2/token" \
    --header "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
    --data-urlencode "grant_type=client_credentials" \
    --data-urlencode "client_id=${client_id}" \
    --data-urlencode "client_secret=${client_secret}"

import requests

client_id = ""
client_secret = ""

response = requests.post(
    url="https://auth.flexli.app/oauth2/token",
    headers={"Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"},
    data={
        "grant_type": "client_credentials",
        "client_id": client_id,
        "client_secret": client_secret
    }
)
print(response.json()["access_token"])

The access token will be in the response JSON's access_token key. Pass this into the Authorization header using the Bearer scheme for all requests.

Authorization: Bearer {{Access Token}}

Postman

A Postman Collection is provided here. Import into Postman and paste your client ID and secret into the variables tab.

Postman does not support JSON autocompletion using schemas. You can use an editor to write your workflows before sending them with Postman.
