Control, integrate or extend Kantree
Kantree offers a REST API which can be used to manipulate any projects or teams. The Kantree UI uses this API so it should offer all the operations you need to remotely control Kantree.
Accessing the API
Read our guide to learn how to use the API. You can browse the full API reference in our API browser.
A Swagger specification file under https://kantree.io/api/1.0/spec.json is generated so you can easily browse the API or generate a client.
Authorization
At the moment only API key authentification is available. We are working on adding OAuth 2.0.
Obtain a token from https://kantree.io/account#developer.
Authentification should be made using HTTP Basic Authorization and the api key should be used as the username, leaving the password blank.
Self-hosted installation
Self-hosted instances have access to the same API under their own domain.
Zapier integration
Send us an email at contact@kantree.io to request access to our Zapier integration beta.
Webhooks
You can create webhooks in your projects.
You just have to register a URL and select a type of events in the list (cards, groups, etc).
The last checkbox is active
lets you temporarily enable/disable your webhook.
Once activated, your URL will receive events from the selected type each time one is emitted in Kantree.
