title: "Integration API"
|
|
description: "Learn how to use Pangolin's REST API to automate and script operations with fine-grained permissions"
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
The API is REST-based and supports many operations available through the web interface. Authentication uses Bearer tokens, and you can create multiple API keys with specific permissions for different use cases.
|
|
|
|
<Info>
|
|
For Pangolin Community Edition, the integration API must be enabled. Check out [the documentation](/self-host/advanced/integration-api) for how to enable the integration API.
|
|
</Info>
|
|
|
|
## Authentication
|
|
|
|
All API requests require authentication using a Bearer token in the Authorization header:
|
|
|
|
<CodeGroup>
|
|
```bash cURL
|
|
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
|
|
https://api.example.com/v1/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```javascript JavaScript
|
|
const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/v1/endpoint', {
|
|
headers: {
|
|
'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}`
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```python Python
|
|
import requests
|
|
|
|
headers = {'Authorization': f'Bearer {api_key}'}
|
|
response = requests.get('https://api.example.com/v1/endpoint', headers=headers)
|
|
```
|
|
</CodeGroup>
|
|
|
|
## API Key Types
|
|
|
|
Pangolin supports two types of API keys with different permission levels:
|
|
|
|
### Organization API Keys
|
|
|
|
Organization API keys are created by organization admins and have limited scope to perform actions only in that organization.
|
|
|
|
### Root API Keys
|
|
|
|
Root API keys have some extra permissions and can execute operations across orgs. They are only available in the Community Edition of Pangolin:
|
|
|
|
<Warning>
|
|
Root API keys have elevated permissions and should be used carefully. Only create them when you need server-wide access.
|
|
</Warning>
|
|
|
|
## Creating API Keys
|
|
|
|
<Steps>
|
|
<Step title="Access the admin panel">
|
|
Navigate to your admin panel:
|
|
- **Organization keys**: Organization → API Keys
|
|
- **Root keys**: Server Admin → API Keys (self-hosted only)
|
|
</Step>
|
|
|
|
<Step title="Generate a new key">
|
|
Click "Create API Key" and provide a descriptive name for the key.
|
|
</Step>
|
|
|
|
<Step title="Configure permissions">
|
|
Select the specific permissions your API key needs from the permissions selector.

</Step>
|
|
|
|
<Step title="Copy and secure your key">
|
|
Copy the generated API key immediately. It won't be shown again.
|
|
|
|
<Warning>
|
|
Store API keys securely and never commit them to version control. Use environment variables or secure secret management.
|
|
