API reference

The v1 API creates requests, reads decisions and lets your worker claim a sealed intent. Policy, the audit log and the full record of a ceremony live on the dashboard.

https://api.outis.tech/v1

The SDKs default to it, so a client needs only a key.

  • Requests and responses are JSON. A body has to be application/json; a write with another content type is a 415.
  • Every time is UTC epoch milliseconds and nullable. A null time means not yet.
  • An unknown field in a body is a 400.
  • Ids are opaque strings. A request id looks like req-4f2a9c1b8d7e6f50.
  • Creating takes an Idempotency-Key header. With one, a retry returns the request the first call made; without one, creating twice makes two requests. See Create a request.
  • Every response wraps its record with server_now, the server’s clock when it answered.
Language Package Client
Node @outis/sdk new Outis({ apiKey })
Python outis Outis(api_key=)
Go github.com/outis-auth/outis-go outis.New(apiKey)

Each SDK guards a call (waiting up to 30 minutes, or handing it to a worker you run), creates and reads requests, checks an authorization against the operation you’re about to run, and verifies webhooks (verifyWebhook, verify_webhook and outis.VerifyWebhook). SDKs covers all three. The curl tab on every sample shows the wire format.
