Overview

Manage your ChatKitty application using the Platform API.

The Platform API provides a RESTful Application Programming Interface for administrators and server-side back-ends to configure and manage their ChatKitty applications. This API lets you create users and channels, send system messages and even delete your application. Everything you see on your ChatKitty dashboard can be controlled with the Platform API.

There are a couple of things you need to start using the Platform API:

1. Your application's OAuth 2.0 client credentials from your dashboard to authenticate your requests

2. An HTTP client of your choice to make API calls

Headers

In addition to the Authorization header for authentication, you should also include the following headers in all your requests:

• Accept: application/hal+json

• Content-Type: application/json

Errors

The Platform API may return any of these HTTP error codes:
