Getting Started
The simple REST API enables developers to quickly integrate their
applications. API services are actively developing to provide more
complete functionality.
Authentication
In order to ensure data security, Lofty has built-in support for
OAuth 2.0, which is extremely useful when setting up integrations
between third-party applications and Lofty without passwords being
required.
To obtain an OAuth2.0 access_token, please refer to Lofty OAuth2.0.
You should set the access token and content type to JSON through the API
call service.
Header | Value |
---|---|
Content-type | application/json |
Authorization | Bearer [access_token] |
Rate limiting will be applied on June 15, 2021 for all those not using
a vendorKey. If a vendorKey is not implemented before July 15, 2021,
API access will not be available. Please complete the application
(see link above) to apply for a security key BEFORE July 15, 2021 to
ensure your connected services will not be affected. Once rate limiting
starts (June 15, 2021), only ten calls per minute are allowed without a
valid vendorKey. If the limit is exceeded, an error will be returned.
The endpoints can be called again after one minute with the same limit
of 10 calls per minute.
