Skip to main content
The Cognigy.AI API follows a RESTful design and uses standard HTTP methods, status codes, and authentication mechanisms. All endpoints support JSON-encoded responses and predictable resource-oriented URLs.

​
Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)

The API fully supports CORS in accordance with the W3C specification. All responses include a wildcard Access-Control-Allow-Origin header, enabling cross-domain browser requests.

​
Authentication

Cognigy.AI supports three authentication methods:
  • API Key. Use an API Key in the request path or HTTP headers. Keep it secure and never share it. If it gets exposed, revoke it immediately.
  • BasicAuth. Use for API requests related to the Management UI.

​
Error Handling

The API uses standard HTTP status codes (400 and higher) to indicate errors. Error responses follow RFC 7807 and include a traceId that you can provide to Cognigy technical support for troubleshooting.
