Getting started
To get started with Quinyx REST API, there are a few things you will need to know.
The framework used for authorisations to the REST API´s is Oauth2. More detailed information can be found here https://oauth.net/2/ .
The basic flow for authentication is that a user is given a:
- Client id - needs to be kept confidential
- Client secret - needs to be kept VERY confidential
- Link to be able to generate a bearer token to be used for authorisations towards the REST API
- Token is valid for 60 minutes
Different client id/ client secrets is required for our different environments
Environments
RC
RC is our customer environment (Release Candidate) where you as a customer can access your data in a sandbox environment. It will contain your customer data from the production environment up until last month. The data in this environment gets updated on the evening of the 1st of each month with data from production and that will overwrite all changes made in the RC environment.

Programs for testing
For testing and troubleshooting we suggest using SoapUI or Postman, our example queries and responses are from Postman. If in contact with Quinyx always attach the request and response in .xml , .txt or similar format.
