API

Overview​

The API allows for programmatic access to a subset of Shipyard's features. This allows users to write scripts and programs to directly interact with the Shipyard platform instead of through the UI interface.

info

Shipyard's API is currently only available to customers on paid plans.

Please Note

  1. The API is subject to change. The API is tightly coupled with the front end of the application, which is subject to change between releases. While endpoints usually won’t change that much, if you write code to use the API, you might have to update it in the future.
  2. The API isn’t versioned. This means that functionality can change version to version, so don’t expect to stay on a particular version of Shipyard in order to use a β€œstable” API.

Authorization​

In order to interact with the API, an API key is required.

  1. Navigate to your user's Settings page

Settings page API keys

  1. On the right side of the page, enter a name in the API key name text field
  2. Click the Create API Key button

API keys add new key

  1. Copy the generated API key value - this is the only time the value will be available

caution

Treat all API keys like passwords and do not commit them to code or share them with unauthorized parties

Access for an API key can be revoked by clicking the Delete button next to its name in the list.

Endpoints​

These are the currently available endpoints as well as example requests and responses. Note that the ID values would be substituted for the actual UUID values in a real-world request. The API key is the example one generated in the Authorization section above.

The response code snippets have been truncated for brevity.
