Are you a citizen developer?

If you're a business analyst, product owner or SME who needs API access for a non-development solution, look no further. For API connectivity for tools such as Power BI, Power Automate, or Microsoft Power Apps, click here or use the 'Enablement' link in the header bar.

Getting Started

The steps below will guide you from making your first test calls to getting your application authorized and ready to begin using the Enterprise API.

STEP 1 - Intro

Check the introduction section to get basic information about the Enterprise API such as response code use, rate limits, pagination and more.

STEP 2 - Try it out/Sandbox

Click here to find the list of APIs.

Enterprise API - if you are looking to browse a catalog of existing endpoints
Mock API - if you are looking to use an API that is currently under construction
Product specific APIs - will only be available based on your access. If you need special access, please contact the API team

Make test calls here to try out filter behavior, result code use, and to review JSON responses.

STEP 3 - Authentication

Check out the authentication information here, or navigate to the security page via the header bar.

STEP 4 - Register your application

Now that you've reviewed the API endpoints and the security information, you're ready to request security for your application to start making calls to the Enterprise API endpoints. Click here for the Service Now ticket flow to request the appropriate authorization for your application. Before you do so, you will need the following information:

Your application name (and client ID if known)
OAuth flow to be used (see security page if not known)
High level business purpose

STEP 5 - Start making API calls
