API implementation

[MaraScott]

Hi,

What would be the cost of integrating an API?

I m trying to find a solution to easily integrate emails in a help desk/todos workflow where tasks can become tickets and tickets become tasks as well as being able to centralize that data.
So far I m using freescout + leantime and I d like to connect these 2 awesome project via API but you Don t have one as far as I can read.

Best regards

David

We are slowly working to include API endpoints. A lot of the basic ones are already available however I haven't been able to build the API authentication yet.

How has this been faring? I don't see any API documentation and it is a make or break decision, as I do want the ability to build middleware for integrating into other platforms.

We have put in place a json rpc api and I just finished writing the UI for api key generation. This will go out this week. I will create short docs right away and then work on longer documentation over the next few weeks. In summary you will be able to send get or post requests to /api/jsonrpc with a method name from our services. We’re following the jsonrpc standard v2 https://www.jsonrpc.org/specification The code is in master already I just need to fix some unrelated bugs and get the release out.

It works !
But only with a GET request.

In a POST request I get :

{
    "code": -32600,
    "message": "Invalid Request",
    "data": "Must include method"
}

The body contain this :

{
    "method": "leantime.rpc.tickets.getTicket",
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": "1",
    "params": {"id":"9" }
}

[marcelfolaron]

That is odd. The error message get's sent when leantime cannot find the method parameter at all (empty). Can you make sure the parameter actually makes it to the system? How are you sending the post data right now?

[gelven4sec]

Alright so I got it working by sending parameters with form-data.
The documentation made me though I could just send the whole json in the body of the request.

One last thing before I leave you alone, where can find the complete list of supported methods ?
I guess that the domain of the method as to be one the services here
But the related methods doesn't seem to exist. I tried "leantime.rpc.tickets.newTicket" which doesn't work.

[marcelfolaron]

We are still working on more detailed docs but the best way to get a list of available service methods is here: https://github.com/Leantime/docs/tree/master/technical/classes/leantime/domain/services

These docs will be updated but in the meantime feel free to ask about methods you need. You can also join our discord server to get answers faster. https://discord.gg/4zMzJtAq9z

Exactly what I needed.
Thanks a lot for your help all along !
