In this section you can check the various API Requests and requirements.

Directions


An JWT Token is required for requests to be processed by the system.

Once a User registers, an JWT Token is automatically generated for this user.

If the JWT is not sent or is expired, there will be an error.

Please make sure to keep your JWT Token is a safe place, to prevent abuse.

Dokky PRO - API REFERENCE FOR DEVELOPERS




AUTENTICATION


Note: To authenticate with the API system, you need to send your JWT as an Authorization Token with each request. You can see the sample code below.


RATE LIMIT


Note: Our API has a rate limiter to safeguard against spike in requests to maximize its stability. Our rate limiter is currently caped at 30 requests per 1 minute.
Several headers will be sent alongside the response and these can be examined to determine various information about the request.


RESPONSE HANDLING


Note: All API response are returned in JSON format by default.
To convert this into usable data, the appropriate function will need to be used according to the language. In PHP for example, the function json_decode() can be used to convert the data to either an object (default) or an array (set the second parameter to true).
It is very important to check the error key as that provides information on whether there was an error or not.
You can also check the header code.
