Public API (v1.0.0)

E-mail: support@serverspace.us Terms of Service

Serverspace Public API is a public API for interacting with Serverspace services. Actions performed in the Serverspace dashboard can also be performed using the public API. This documentation describes the Serverspace application programming interface (API): the various API operations, request and response structures, error codes, and examples.

Authentication

You need to create an API key for the project to work with the public API. The key can be generated by the project owner in the project settings in the control panel. Each key has attributes: name, key value, issue date, expiration date. The key name can be arbitrary, up to 50 characters long. The key value is generated automatically and is 64 characters long. The key expiration date may be left blank, meaning the key does not expire and can be used indefinitely.

To work with the public API, the key value must be passed with all requests in the X-API-KEY header, for example:

  -H "X-API-KEY: lmGwbvllpIqIrKROOCLgE5Z941MKP5EYfbkgwtqJZGigfXUTpuYRpNQkCqShmm6r"

All API requests must be made over HTTPS. Requests made over plain HTTP will fail. API requests without authentication will also fail.

Projects

Get information about project

Detailing

Returns the project ID and the current project balance. Projects let the account holder provide full or limited access to their infrastructure or resources (servers, networks, balance, etc.) to other users to collaborate with resources. There are two types of projects: personal and general. Each user in the project can be assigned a role with certain access rights: owner, administrator or accountant
