<h1>Outline API</h1>
<p>
First thing we build for Outline was its API. It's the heart and sole of the service and
as developers, it's our mission to make the API as rich and easy to use as possible.

While Outline is still in public beta, we might make small adjustments, including
breaking changes to the API.

<h2>Making requests</h2>
<p>
Outline's API follows simple RPC style conventions where each API endpoint is a method on{' '}
<code>https://www.getoutline.com/api/&lt;METHOD&gt;</code>. Both <code>GET</code> and{' '}
<code>POST</code> methods are supported but it's recommeded that you make all call using{' '}
<code>POST</code>. Only HTTPS is supported in production.

<p>
For <code>GET</code> requests query string parameters are expected (e.g.
<code>/api/document.info?id=...&token=...</code>). When making <code>POST</code> requests,
request parameters are parsed depending on <code>Content-Type</code> header. To make a
call using JSON payload, one must pass <code>Content-Type: application/json</code> header:

<h2>Authentication</h2>
<p>
To access private API endpoints, you must provide a valid API key. You can create new API
keys in your <a href={`${process.env.URL}/settings`}>account settings</a>. Be careful when
handling your keys as they give access to all of your documents.

</p>
<p>
To authenticate with Outline API, you can supply the API key as a header (<code>
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
</code>) or as part of the payload using <code>token</code> parameter. If you're making{' '}
<code>GET</code> requests, header based authentication is recommended so that your keys
don't leak into logs.
