Miradore API v2

Miradore API (Application Programming Interface) v2 is an HTTPS REST-based interface for integrating Miradore with other applications. API v2 provides access to resources via URL and it is suitable for CRUD (create, read, update and delete) operations in Miradore.

Authentication

Miradore API v2 uses the authentication key which is sent to the server in the request’s HTTPS header “X-API-Key”.

The authentication key is a random string that can be generated from Miradore web console > System > Infrastructure diagram when the API feature is activated. Please read more about creating an authentication key from the article Getting started with API. See additional instructions about managing authentication keys from Adding API keys and Deleting API keys.

Supported items and methods

The Miradore API v2 is used by sending HTTPS requests to the Miradore server. The API uses standard HTTPS methods GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE. The response format is JSON.
The base URI for API v2 calls:
https://<sitename>.online.miradore.com/api/v2/<item>

The technical documentation of Miradore API v2, information about supported items and methods, can be found in the Swagger documentation together with some examples. The documentation is available in: https://<sitename>.online.miradore.com/swagger/
