Automation

REST API

Read boards and add to them from scripts and services, with a token or an OAuth app.

What it does

Freero’s versioned REST API at /api/v1 covers boards, items, the board outline, comments, members, search, docs, suggestions and the issue-tracker hand-off. Every Freero server publishes its OpenAPI description at /api/v1/openapi.json.

A personal access token does what you can, limited to the scopes you pick; an OAuth app acts for each person who approves it. Every call is in the audit log, and a team’s admins can turn API access off.

Connect REST API

  1. Step 1

    Make a personal access token in Settings → API tokens (shown once), with the scopes you need.

  2. Step 2

    Send it as Authorization: Bearer to /api/v1.

On unless the server’s operator set PUBLIC_API=false.

In Freero, Apps & agents → REST API takes you straight to this step.
