Empuls v1 API

πŸ“„ Introduction

Empuls API is a simple way to access Empuls internal APIs without requiring the user to go through to the web interface. At its core for authentication empuls uses OAuth 2.0 which allows API clients to access protected resources on behalf of a user without requiring the user's credentials. This document describes the API and its usage.

πŸ”– How to use this collection

  • Use the EmpulsAPI v1 postman environment.

  • Enter base_url variable. This is usually the URL of the Empuls portal. ie. https://abc.xoxoday.com

  • Enter the credentials provided by empuls team in client_id, client_secret, refresh_token variables.

  • Enter the email of the user you want to use the services as in the as_user variable.

  • Save the environment using ctrl+s or cmd+s.

  • Run the Authentication/Company Access Token endpoint to generate access_token. This access_token will be automatically used in the Services APIs


Authentication

The Empuls OAuth authentication flow consists of the following steps:

  • The empuls internal team will generate and share the Client ID, Client Secret, and Refresh Token with the user.

  • Use the given credentials to fetch Access Token using the /chef/v1/oauth/token/company endpoint

  • Send the Access Token in the Authorization header as Bearer for all the Sevices API

  • Send the email of the person you want to access the resources in as_user header.

You must include Authorization and as_user request header in each request to the Empuls API.

Point to note :

  • The access token will be valid for 1 day

  • The refresh token will be valid for 60 days

  • Each time an Access token is generated, the Refresh token expiration date is extended 60 days from that time

In this collection, we store Access Token/Hash and other variables in the environment and automatically use them as necessary.

Authentication error response

If an API key is missing, malformed, or invalid, you will receive an HTTP 401 Unauthorized response code.

503 response

An HTTP 503 response from our servers indicates there is an unexpected spike in API access traffic. The server is usually operational within the next five minutes.
