Introduction

The Interaxo API gives integrators direct access to the data in the Interaxo platform.

Obtaining Access

Contact Interaxo support for any questions related to API access.

Security

The Interaxo API uses OpenID Connect for identity and authorization, i.e. OAuth2 over SSL.

The API enables access to read and manipulate data in Interaxo on behalf of an Interaxo identity. All communication through the Interaxo API uses the identity of the user:

Enablement

Consumers of the API must first register an application with Interaxo, and will then be given OAuth client_id and client_secret tokens for integrating with the API on behalf of Interaxo users. Web-based integrations must also provide valid redirect_uris for recieving tokens from the Identity solution.

The integrator can then initiate a login flow process, as described below. This process will grant your application access to communicate with the API on behalf of an Interaxo identity.

Contact Interaxo support to register an application.

Authentication

A successful login will return a long-lived refresh_token that you can exchange for a short-lived access_token which is then used in communication with the Interaxo API.

The relevant OpenID Connect endpoints are listed here:

https://login.collaboration-sso.com/auth/.well-known/openid-configuration

1) Initiate 3-legged flow in browser:

https://login.collaboration-sso.com/authorize?
    response_type=code&
    scope=offline_access&
    client_id=$CLIENT_ID&
    redirect_uri=$REDIRECT_URI&
    audience=$AUDIENCE

2) Obtain access_token and refresh_token:

AUTH_CODE=<auth code from web>
curl -d grant_type=authorization_code \
     -d client_id=$CLIENT_ID \
     -d client_secret=$CLIENT_SECRET \
     -d code=$AUTH_CODE \
     -d redirect_uri=$REDIRECT_URI \
        https://login.collaboration-sso.com/oauth/token

Response:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8
{
  ...,
  "access_token":: "access-token",
  "refresh_token" : "refresh-token",
  ...
}

3) Obtain access_token:

REFRESH_TOKEN=<token from response>
curl -d grant_type=refresh_token \
     -d client_id=$CLIENT_ID \
     -d client_secret=$CLIENT_SECRET \
     -d refresh_token=$REFRESH_TOKEN \
     -d redirect_uri=$REDIRECT_URI \
        https://login.collaboration-sso.com/oauth/token

Response:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8
{
  ...
  "access_token" : "my-access-token",
  "expires_in" : 300,
  ...
}

A 3-legged Oauth2 flow consists of the following:

  1. Redirect user to a login page for granting the application access to act on behalf of the Interaxo Identity. Upon a successful grant, the page will redirect back to your application with a one-time authorization_code
  2. The application exchanges the authorization_code for a refresh_token.
  3. The application exchanges obtained access_tokens when communicating with the API

Oauth Login parameters

Parameter Example Description
client_id example-corp-integration ID of registered integration application
scope offline_access Oauth scopes the integration requests access to.
redirect_uri https://example.com/oauth_callback The integration point callback url.

Oauth Scopes

The following scopes are supported by the Interaxo API:

Scope Default Description
offline_access no Allows integration point to store refresh token after user is logged out. Offline tokens expires after 30 days inactivity, while regular refresh_tokens expire after 30 minutes.

Authorizing Requests

Request:

curl "https://api.interaxo.com/v1/$COMMUNITY/rooms" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"

All authorized requests to the API must include an HTTP Authorization header with a valid access_token, i.e:

Authorization: Bearer {access_token}

Query Parameters

All GET operations on collection based resources support a common set of query parameters for paging, filtering and sorting:

Parameter Required Type Example Description
limit No number ?limit=1000 Limit to n items
skip No number ?skip=1000 Skips n first items
sort No string ?sort=-name Sorts by field name.
- indicates descendant sort

Error handling

A JSON error object is returned by all errors produced by the API. This error contains an error code and a unique trace ID that can be used in trouble shooting the problem.

The Error object

Response:

HTTP/1.1 500 INTERNAL SERVER ERROR
Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8
{
  "trace_id" : "AJI0WC",
  "code" : "file_streaming_error",
  "message" : "Can not stream file"
}

All API errors contain a JSON response message with the following properties:

Key Type Description
trace_id string A unique code for tracing an error.
code number See API Error Codes
message string Error description
errors array Array of validation errors

Integrators should include the trace_id value in any relevant support request.

API Error Codes

The Interaxo API uses the following error codes:

Error Code HTTP Status Description
validation_error 400 Invalid data sent
unauthorized 401 Invalid OAuth token
forbidden 403 Incufficient rights to the resource/operation requested
not_found 404 The resource could not be found
invalid_node_type 422 Item is not valid for the content resource/operation requested
unexpected_error 500 Internal Server Error
file_streaming_error 500 File streaming I/O error

Key Type Description
code string Code of validation error
message string Contains the description of a validation error

Communities and Rooms

Content items in Interaxo can be grouped into 4 categories: Folders, Entries, Files and Links. The table below outlines the available items as well as the type of children items allowed under each of these.

Name type value Category Allowed Children
Simple Folder simple-folder Folder Folder, File, Link
Active Folder active-folder Folder Entry
Active Folder with Workflow workflow-folder Folder Entry
Entry entry Entry File
File file File

These queries are supported for Numeric and Date fields.

Example - Search for entries with a numeric value between 10 and 20 for the field “A Numeric Field”:

A Numeric Field_from=10&A Numeric Field_to=20

Multiple values (OR)

It is possible to search for multiple values for the same field by repeating the field query

Example - Search for entries where “My Text Field” has the value “Hello” or “Another Hello”:

My Text Field=Hello&My text Field=Another Hello

Scoping search to certain folders

It is possible to define which folder(s) should be searched by specifying the id of the folders

Example - Search file in two folder locations:

folder_id=18b110e2-a103-4ab8-aec8-1db9ef8de3c1&folder_id=0de41104-8be4-47c2-958c-bdb495697d8d

Combined queries

Queries can be combined to form more complex queries

Example - Search for files or folders named A Test OR B Test which were created on 5. Feb 2016 in two different locations

type=file,folder&name=A Test&name=B Test&created=2016-02-05&folder_id=18b110e2-a103-4ab8-aec8&folder_id=0de41104-8be4-47c2-958c

Partial matching

Partial matching is supported for Text fields by using the * operator.

Example: olde will match ‘My Folder’

Response

Depending on which type is searched for, returns a list of content objects.

Important note

These results are ‘eventually consistent’ which implies that changes made to the file name is not immediately reflected in the list of results.
