Don't forget to add the necessary headers:

Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_API_TOKEN>
Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json

We assume you'll send any data required for the endpoints as JSON.

Rate limiting

To avoid spamming we've added rate limits to our API, these are the limits per plan, per minute:

  • Starter: 30
  • Business: 60
  • Unlimited: 120

Error handling

A validation error will look like this:

{
  "message": "The given data was invalid.",
  "errors": {
    "fields": [
      "The fields given do not match the required ones, required fields: previewlinks:title and previewlinks:subtitle."
    ]
  }
}

Successful responses will return a 200 status code.
