Developer Documentation - Vesica API (Beta)

The Vesica API allows you to add, view and manage your objects and collections by sending various parameters via the "POST" method. In return, the API sends XML based on the received parameters.

The Vesica API is currently in beta and is actively developed and regularly updated. Please report any issues via the support centre.

With every request, users need to send their "User API Key" and "Account API Key" to authenticate themselves. To get the user_api and account_api, you need to login into your Vesica account and click on "Settings". On the settings page click on the "API Keys" button. You will then be redirected to the page with your API keys. These two keys are mandatory and are required with every request made to the Vesica API. No request can be processed without the correct values for these two parameters. If any of these values is incorrect, the Vesica API will not process the request and will return the following XML.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<response>
     <message>Invalid API keys</message>
</response>

Other than the authentication error, if any other parameter sent to the Vesica API is invalid, the request will not be processed and will return the following empty XML response.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<response>
</response>
