A simple guide to connecting your systems and sending content to AutogenAI
The AutogenAI public API enables you to securely send files and content to your Document Library, where they can be used across the platform in the same way as manually uploaded documents.
This guide shows you how to set up your API credentials, authenticate your requests, and start using the API.
What you can do with the Public API
The Public API allows you to:
- Send documents directly into AutogenAI’s library from your applications or servers.
- Make your content available via Library AI, Research Assistant, and other AutogenAI tools.
- Seamlessly integrate AutogenAI into your existing workflows.
What you need before you start
Before using the API, ensure you have the following:
- An active AutogenAI account.
- Access to the 'Integrations' tab within AutogenAI. (If you don’t see it, contact your administrator.)
- An API Key and Secret for authentication.
- All API requests must be authenticated.
- Each request must include specific headers to verify your identity.
How to generate API Keys
Your API Key and Secret are used to sign and authorise your API requests.
To generate a new API Key:
- Log in to AutogenAI and navigate to the 'Integrations' page.
- Click “+ API Key.”
- Enter a name for your new API Key (choose something easy to recognise later).
- Click 'Confirm'.
- Copy your API Key and Secret immediately.
- Click 'Dismiss' to close the modal.
- Important: You can only view the Secret once. Please save it somewhere safe. If you lose it, you'll need to generate a new API Key.
