This page deals with the new-format REST API being developed as part of SoFurry NEXT. For documentation on the current "v3" API, please see SoFurry_REST_APIs.

About the API

The api runs on lumen, is classic json/rest, at the domain name api.sofurrybeta.com. It should always be accessed over HTTPS.

Making a simple API request

GET request sample

Authentication

POST for login to create a session, get a token

API Routes

This table contains all the methods and URLs that the API currently supports. For more information on using a particular route, simply go through to that route's page.

Some routes have no parameters at all, and can be accessed simply by doing the HTTP request. Some routes require parameters as part of the URL - they will be denoted by curly braces, and are always mandatory. Some requests expect parameters to be sent in the body of a JSON request.

Users and Profiles

These routes are all about managing user accounts and profiles. Not all the routes are secure (require authentication).
