Title: HTTP API Description: Integrate OpenPost over HTTP from any language or runtime. Canonical: https://docs.openpo.st/automate/api Source: [https://docs.openpo.st/automate/api](https://docs.openpo.st/automate/api) # HTTP API Use the HTTP API when you need raw HTTP, use a language other than JavaScript or TypeScript, or need an operation that the SDK does not cover. Hosted uses this base URL: ```text https://app.openpo.st/api/v1 ``` For self-hosting, append `/api/v1` to the public OpenPost origin. ## Start here 1.

[Handle revisions, retries, and jobs](https://docs.openpo.st/automate/api/reliability) ## Contract and reference The [API reference](https://docs.openpo.st/api-reference) is generated from the current OpenAPI contract. It lists every path, body, response, parameter, and required header. These guides explain common workflows and do not replace that reference. Download the contract from [`/openapi.json`](https://docs.openpo.st/openapi.json) to generate a client. Do not copy request or response schemas into your integration because those copies drift when the API changes.
