API v2 Reference

The vBoxxCloud API is organized around REST. Our API is designed to have predictable, resource-oriented URLs, and to use HTTP response codes to indicate API errors. We use built-in HTTP features, like HTTP authentication and HTTP verbs, which can be understood by off-the-shelf HTTP clients. JSON will be returned in all responses from the API, including errors.


Endpoint

https://<hostname:port>/api/2

All requests to the vBoxxCloud API must be performed over HTTPS. Non-HTTPS requests will be rejected.


Responses

vBoxxCloud uses conventional HTTP response codes to indicate success or failure of an API request. In general, codes in the 2xx range indicate success, codes in the 4xx range indicate an error that resulted from the provided information (i.e. a required parameter was missing or invalid, the request is malformed, etc.), and codes in the 5xx range indicate an error with the vBoxxCloud server.

HTTP Status Code Summary

  • 200 OK - Everything worked as expected.
  • 304 Not Modified - The response has not changed since a previous request.
  • 400 Bad Request - The request is missing a required parameter, includes an invalid parameter value, or is otherwise malformed.
  • 401 Unauthorized - No valid authentication provided.
  • 403 Forbidden - The request was refused because the authenticated user does not have access.
  • 404 Not Found - The requested resource does not exist.
  • 405 Method Not Allowed - An invalid HTTP method (GET, POST, etc.) was used.
  • 409 Conflict - The request results in a conflict with the current state of the resource.
  • 410 Gone - The requested resource did exist, but was permanently deleted.
  • 500, 502, 503, 504 Server errors - Something went wrong on vBoxxCloud's end.

JSON

All API responses return a JSON object. For consistency, this is also true even in cases where the HTTP status code conveys the full response. For example, some API methods simply indicate that they were successful with an HTTP 200 status code. In those cases, the response will be:

HTTP status code: 200
Response body:
{
    "status": "ok"
}

Another case is when an HTTP 304 status code is returned, indicating that the client should use their cached response from a previous request.

HTTP status code: 304
Response body:
{
    "status": "not_modified"
}

Exact responses may be found in the details of each method.

Errors

In the case of an error, the API will use an appropriate HTTP status code in the response. JSON with details of the type of error that occurred and, when available, a human-readable description of the error will also be returned.

The following are common errors that may be encountered when working with the API:

Invalid request
HTTP status code: 400

{
    "error": "invalid_request"

Versioning

Major API versions are selected based on the endpoint URL. It is our intention to maintain backwards compatibility within a major version throughout its lifetime, except where security issues are involved. The minor API version in use can be determined by calling the version method.


Authentication

Unless otherwise noted, all vBoxxCloud API methods require authentication via OAuth2. Currently it supports the password and refresh token grant types, with authorization code and client credential grants coming in the near future.

The OAuth2 provider is not specific to an API version. For details on obtaining, refreshing, and revoking OAuth2 access tokens see the OAuth2 documentation.


General

Version

The version method returns the exact API version available in the format <major>.<minor>.<revision>. Authentication is not required.

GET /api/2/version
Response
HTTP status code: 200
Response body:
{
    "version": "2.0.9"
