Introduction

Application registration

For the application to be able to start working, you need to generate an authentication key and signature key. Account managers can do this in the section Account management / Access to API.

Important

The API can only be used with paid and premium accounts.

Access to interfaces

Access to the interface is established through a single entry point located at:

https://api.planfix.ru/xml/ - for accounts located in Europe

https://apiru.planfix.ru/xml/ - for accounts located in Russia

Please note that the interface is accessed over HTTPS. All API calls using an unsecured connection will be automatically ignored, so we recommend establishing a test secure connection with an access point to Planfix interfaces before sending data.

All API calls are executed through POST requests.

Limitations on requests

By default, all accounts are limited based on their plan (20/50/100,000 requests per day) and are limited to one request per second. Additionally, all methods that return lists of values are limited to 100 results per request. The approximate number of remaining requests per day is returned in the X-RateLimit-Remaining header (this value is updated approximately every 10 minutes).

Request format

The request packet has the following structure

Name	Type	Value	Notes
account	string	account where the function will be executed	required field; found in all requests
sid	string(32)	session key received from executing the auth function auth	if a user is authenticated using username/password

Authentication

There are two possible authentication methods: by authorization token or by username and password. The preferred method of authentication uses a token; authentication with username and password is used for reverse compatibility, so as not to disrupt existing client applications.

Response format

The response format has the following structure:
