Quickstart
This guide will get you all set up and ready to use the Finite State API. We'll cover how to get started and how to make your first API request. We'll also look at where to go next to find all the information you need to take full advantage of our powerful GraphQL API.
Before you can make requests to the Finite State API, you will need credentials in the form of an API CLIENT_ID
and CLIENT_SECRET
. Contact your Finite State representative to get your credentials.
NOTE: API key management and self-service will be part of the Finite State application in the future.
API Location
The GraphQL API is available at a single GraphQL endpoint:
POST https://platform.finitestate.io/api/v1/graphql
Finite State's GraphQL APIs only accept POST requests. Other HTTP methods, such as GET or PUT, will return a 400 (Bad request)
or 406 (Not acceptable)
response.
Getting API Keys
Contact your Finite State representative to get your CLIENT_ID
, CLIENT_SECRET
, and ORGANIZATION_CONTEXT
values. You will need these values to make your first API request.
