API

Integrate your company’s systems with the platform through the Glass Data API, the main integration point between the two. The API is REST and is hosted at https://api.glassdata.io. Only your company’s backend consumes the API, and the calls are authenticated with keys of your own.

The API:

  • sends business events that feed the metrics and the monitors in real time;
  • applies rules to the events as they arrive, enriching them with new values;
  • registers and updates payments for risk analysis;
  • queries the auxiliary resources already registered, such as event types and fields, to validate the configuration before integrating;
  • enriches entities with custom metadata used in metrics.

Getting started

  1. Generate a pair of credentials under Settings > API keys.
  2. Review the authentication and the request standards in the technical integration.
  3. Go through the operations, organized by resource, in the methods section.

All requests use HTTP Basic and travel in JSON. Never expose the credentials in public clients.
