API Documentation
A structured reference for integrating server management, automation, and infrastructure workflows with PattaCloud.
Build Around Your Infrastructure
API-based workflows can help automate repetitive infrastructure tasks and connect server operations with your existing tools.
Server Management
Integrate VPS-related workflows with applications, internal tools, and infrastructure management systems where supported.
Automation
Reduce repetitive operational tasks by connecting infrastructure workflows with your own automation systems.
Developer Integration
Build custom tools and integrations around the API capabilities available to your PattaCloud services.
Authentication
API authentication should be handled securely. Never expose private credentials in client-side applications or public repositories.
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN
Keep API Credentials Private
Store API credentials securely on the server side, use appropriate access controls, and rotate credentials when necessary. Do not place private tokens directly inside frontend JavaScript or publicly accessible source code.
API Request Structure
A typical API integration consists of an authenticated HTTPS request followed by a structured response.
{ "resource": "server", "action": "YOUR_ACTION", "parameters": { "id": "YOUR_SERVER_ID" } }
HTTP Methods
API resources commonly use standard HTTP methods to describe the requested operation. Exact supported methods depend on the API endpoint being used.
Integration Workflow
A simple development workflow can help keep your integration secure, predictable, and easier to maintain.
Authenticate
Configure your server-side application with the required authentication credentials.
Send Request
Submit an HTTPS request using the method and parameters required by the selected API operation.
Process Response
Validate the returned status and response data before continuing with your application workflow.
Handle Errors
Log relevant failures and implement appropriate retry or recovery logic where applicable.
API Best Practices
Follow basic security and application design principles when integrating infrastructure APIs.
Use HTTPS
Protect API communication by using encrypted HTTPS connections for requests containing credentials or data.
Protect Tokens
Keep private API credentials on trusted server-side systems and restrict access to authorized applications.
Handle Failures
Account for network failures, invalid requests, service errors, and other conditions that may affect API operations.
API FAQ
Common questions about working with infrastructure APIs.
