To create an API you must first create an application. Learn how to create an application here. You can create an API from the Applications tab or from the APIs tab.

1. Navigate to either the Applications or APIs tab:

  • If using the Applications tab: Select the application where the API will be grouped.

2. Click Create API.

  • If using the APIs tab: Choose the application to group the API under, or create a new one.

3. Enter the API name and select the API type from the dropdown:

  • REST
  • WebSocket
  • GraphQL
  • gRPC

4. Provide any required API Endpoints (must use HTTPS).

5. Assign Owners - These may be auto-filled based on the application’s settings. You can add additional owners as needed.

6. Add Custom Tags - These may also be auto-filled, depending on the application's settings. To add more to the API:

  • Click Add Tag.
  • Enter a Key and a Value for each tag.

7. Click OK.
