# Misskey API
|
|
Misskey exposes an API that you can use to develop Misskey clients, Misskey-connected web services, bots, etc. ("Applications").
|
|
We also have a streaming API, so you can create applications with real-time capabilities.
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
By using the official Misskey SDK or third party libraries, you can use the API more conveniently, for example by simplifying some of the steps described in this document.
|
|
See [here](TODO) for more information about libraries.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
To start using the API, you will need to obtain an **access token** associated with the account you wish to use the API with.
|
|
This document will walk you through the process of obtaining an access token and then show you how to use the API in a basic way.
|
|
|
|
## Getting an access token
|
|
The API generally requires an access token to make a request.
|
|
An access token is a set of credentials associated with a user, which identifies the user using the API and controls what operations each access token is authorised to perform.
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
There is a one-to-many relationship between a user and the access token associated with that user, and multiple access tokens can be issued for a given user.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
You can easily [obtain an access token for yourself](#Manually-issue-an-access-token), or you can [obtain an access token for an user who will be using your application](#Request-an-access-token-to-be-issued).
|
|
|
|
### Manually issue an access token
|
|
You can issue your own access token in Misskey Web under 'Settings > API'.
|
|
|
|
:::danger
|
|
Please do not share your access token with anyone.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
### Request an access token to be issued
|
|
To obtain an access token for a user of the application ( simply "the user"), you can request it to be issued in the following way.
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
The method described below is called MiAuth, ant it issues an instant access token without creating an app.
|
|
|
|
You can still [create an app to obtain access token](./app.md).
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
#### Step 1
|
|
Generate a UUID. This will be referred to as the **session ID** from now on.
|
|
|
|
:::danger
|
|
This session ID should be generated each time and should not be reused.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
#### Step 2
|
|
The application authentication form should be displayed in the user's browser. The authentication form can be opened with a URL similar to this:
|
|
|
|
```:no-line-numbers
|
|
https://{host}/miauth/{session}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
where
|
|
- `{host}` is the host of the user's instance (usually this is entered by the user) and
|
|
- `{session}` is the session ID.
|
|
|
|
You can also set a few options as query parameters to the URL:
|
|
|
|
| name | description |
|
|
| ---- | ---- |
|
|
| `name` | application name |
|
|
| `icon` | application icon image URL。 |
|
|
| `callback` | The URL to which the user will be redirected after authentication, with the session ID added to the redirect with the query parameter `session`. |
|
|
| `permission` | The permissions that the application requires. <br>List the permissions to be requested, separated by `,`. The list of permissions can be found [here](TODO). |
|
|
|
|
:::tip Example
|
|
```:no-line-numbers
|
|
https://misskey.io/miauth/c1f6d42b-468b-4fd2-8274-e58abdedef6f?name=MyApp&callback=https%3A%2F%2Fmyapp.example.com%2Fcallback&permisson=write:notes,write:following,read:drive
|
|
```
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
#### Step 3
|
|
After the user has been granted application access, a POST request to a URL of the following form will return JSON containing the access token as a response.
|
|
|
|
```:no-line-numbers
|
|
https://{host}/api/miauth/{session}/check
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
where
|
|
- `{host}` is the host of the user's instance and
|
|
- `{session}` is the session ID.
|
|
|
|
The properties included in the response are as follows:
|
|
|
|
| name | description |
|
|
| ---- | ---- |
|
|
| `token` | access token for the user |
|
|
| `user` | information about the user |
|
|
|
|
## Using the API
|
|
Once you have your API access token, you can use the API by making requests to the various endpoints.
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
|
|
- All HTTP APIs are POST, and both request and response are in JSON format (excluding drive/files/create).
|
|
- Specify `Content-Type: application/json` in the request header.
|
|
- The access token is included in the request body JSON with the parameter name `i`.
|
|
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
Example of a body with an access token (for meta):
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"i": "HogEFugA1341",
|
|
"detail": false
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The access token is included in the request body JSON at the parameter `i`.
|
|
|
|
For more information on the API, see the [API Reference](./endpoints.html).
|
|
|
|
:::warning
|
|
Misskey does not use REST.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
In addition to the HTTP API, Misskey also provides a streaming API. More information about the streaming API can be found [here](./streaming/).
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
Your Misskey instance also provides API documentation at `/api-doc`.
