Kvikk API

Base URL

All API URLs referenced in this documentation start with the following base part:

https://api.kvikk.hu/v1

Authentication

To authenticate with the APIs, specify the “X-API-KEY” header with each request. The value of the header must be a valid API key. Example:

X-API-KEY: eyJraWQiOiI0...

Date Format

The api returns JSON for all API calls. Every returned date is using the ISO 8601, for example:

2024-08-01 10:18:42.697Z

API Conventions

The Kvikk API is built on HTTP. Our API is RESTful:

/something is equivalent to /something/.
URL paths, URL query parameter names, and JSON field names are case sensitive.
The HTTP status indicates whether an operation failed or succeeded, with extra information included in the HTTP response body.
All APIs return standard error code formats.
Unexpected query parameters are NOT ignored.
Unexpected JSON fields in the request body are NOT ignored.
Uses built-in HTTP capabilities for passing parameters and authentication.
Always returns JSON.

Every response looks like this:

{
  "status": "success",
  "code": "shipment_created",
  "message": "Shipment successfully created",
  "data": Object...
}
