API Keys

All HTTPS requests for REST API functions must include the x-api-key parameter in the request header, as illustrated in the examples below.

On-Prem Customers:

To generate an API key in the GYTPOL UI, navigate to the

SaaS customers are advised to reach out to their customer success manager to obtain the necessary x-api-key.

API Port

For On-Prem customers, the default port for API access is 9191. If you wish to use a different port, you can make the adjustment by modifying the port in the file located at c:\gytpol\data\webserv_config.json.

...

For SaaS customers, there is no need to specify a port, as the URL utilizes port 443.

Base URL

The Base URL variable in both the scripts and the examples provided below should be set to your GYTPOL URL.

For on-premises customers, it's necessary to append the port after the GYTPOL server URL, like so: https://gytpol.domain.local:9191/gytpolapi/v2.0/<function-name>.

However, SaaS customers can simply utilize the URL of their tenant without the port: https://gytpol.eu.cloud.gytpol.com/gytpolapi/v2.0/<function-name>.
