# API Documentation DocuElevate provides a powerful REST API for programmatic access to all its features. This document serves as a reference for the available endpoints and their usage. > **Looking for a quick way to script against DocuElevate?** > The built-in [CLI tool](./CLIGuide.md) wraps the API and is ready to use from a terminal or shell script — no HTTP client code required. ## API Overview - Base URL: `http:///api` - Authentication: OAuth2 (when enabled) - Response Format: JSON - Rate Limiting: Enabled by default (see Rate Limiting section below) ## Interactive API Documentation The most up-to-date and interactive API documentation is available at: `http:///docs` This Swagger UI provides a complete reference with the ability to try out API calls directly from your browser. ## Rate Limiting DocuElevate implements rate limiting to protect against abuse and DoS attacks. Rate limits are enforced per IP address for unauthenticated requests and per user for authenticated requests. ### Default Limits - **Default endpoints**: 100 requests per minute - **File upload**: 600 requests per minute (global) + 20 per user per 60 s (per-user, health-aware) - **Authentication**: 10 requests per minute **Per-user upload rate limiting**: Upload endpoints (`/api/ui-upload`, `/api/process-url`) enforce a per-user sliding-window limit that adapts to system load. Under heavy queue depth or high CPU usage, the effective limit is reduced automatically. See the [Configuration Guide](ConfigurationGuide.md#per-user-upload-rate-limiting) for details. **Note**: Document processing endpoints (OCR, metadata extraction) use built-in queue throttling to control processing rates and prevent upstream API overloads. No additional API-level rate limit is applied to processing endpoints. ### Rate Limit Headers When a rate limit is exceeded, the API returns a `429 Too Many Requests` response: ```json { "detail": "Rate limit exceeded: 100 per 1 minute" } ``` The response includes a `Retry-After` header indicating when the client can retry the request. ### Configuration Rate limits can be configured via environment variables: ```bash RATE_LIMITING_ENABLED=true RATE_LIMIT_DEFAULT=100/minute RATE_LIMIT_UPLOAD=600/minute RATE_LIMIT_AUTH=10/minute # Per-user upload rate limiting (health-aware) UPLOAD_RATE_LIMIT_PER_USER=20 # Max uploads per user per window UPLOAD_RATE_LIMIT_WINDOW=60 # Sliding window in seconds ``` See [Configuration Guide](ConfigurationGuide.md) for more details. ### Best Practices 1. **Respect rate limits**: Monitor your request rates and implement backoff strategies 2. **Cache responses**: Reduce unnecessary API calls by caching responses when appropriate 3. **Batch operations**: Use bulk endpoints when available instead of making multiple individual requests 4. **Handle 429 responses**: Implement retry logic with exponential backoff when rate limits are exceeded ### Example: Handling Rate Limits ```python import requests import time def make_api_request(url, max_retries=3): """Make API request with rate limit handling.""" for attempt in range(max_retries): response = requests.get(url) if response.status_code == 429: # Rate limit exceeded retry_after = int(response.headers.get('Retry-After', 60)) print(f"Rate limit exceeded. Retrying after {retry_after} seconds...") time.sleep(retry_after) continue return response raise Exception("Max retries exceeded") ``` ## Authentication When authentication is enabled, you must include an authentication token in your requests. ### API Tokens (Recommended) DocuElevate supports personal API tokens for programmatic access. Tokens are the recommended way to authenticate scripts, CI/CD pipelines, and webhook integrations. **Creating a token:** 1. Log in to DocuElevate and navigate to **API Tokens** (available in your user menu or at `/api-tokens`). 2. Enter a descriptive name (e.g. "CI Pipeline", "Scanner Integration") and click **Create Token**. 3. Copy the token immediately — it is shown only once. **Using a token:** ```bash curl -X GET "http:///api/files" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer " ``` **Managing tokens programmatically:** | Method | Endpoint | Description | |--------|----------|-------------| | `POST` | `/api/api-tokens/` | Create a new token | | `GET` | `/api/api-tokens/` | List all your tokens | | `DELETE` | `/api/api-tokens/{id}` | Revoke (active) or permanently delete (revoked) a token | | `POST` | `/api/api-tokens/{id}/reactivate` | Reactivate a revoked token | ### Session Authentication Browser-based users authenticate via OAuth or local login. Session cookies are set automatically and used for subsequent requests: ```bash curl -X GET "http:///api/files" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer " ``` ## Common Endpoints ### Document Upload #### Upload from Computer Upload a file from your computer to DocuElevate for processing. **Endpoint**: `POST /api/upload` **Request**: ```bash curl -X POST "http:///api/upload" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer " \ -F "file=@/path/to/document.pdf" ``` **Response (201 Created)**: ```json { "task_id": "abc-123-def", "status": "queued", "message": "File uploaded and queued for processing", "filename": "document.pdf" } ``` #### Upload from URL Download and process a file from a URL.

The `Content-Disposition` header is set to `attachment` with the original filename so the browser prompts a save dialog. **Parameters**: - `version` (optional, default: `processed`): Either `processed` or `original` - `processed` *(default)*: Downloads the post-processing file (with embedded metadata) - `original`: Downloads the raw file as originally uploaded **Response**: File content with `Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=""`. **Example**: ```bash # Download processed file (default) curl -OJ "http:///api/files/123/download" # Download original upload curl -OJ "http:///api/files/123/download?version=original" ``` **Error Responses**: - `404`: File not found in database or on disk - `400`: Invalid `version` parameter (must be `processed` or `original`) ### Similar Documents **GET** `/api/files/{file_id}/similar` Find documents similar to the specified file using pre-computed text embeddings and cosine similarity. Similarity scores range from 0 (completely different) to 1 (identical content). Embeddings are computed automatically during document ingestion and cached in the database. **Parameters**: - `limit` (optional, default: `5`, max: `20`): Maximum number of similar documents to return - `threshold` (optional, default: `0.3`, range: `0.0–1.0`): Minimum similarity score to include **Response**: ```json { "file_id": 42, "similar_documents": [ { "file_id": 15, "original_filename": "Invoice_2026-01.pdf", "document_title": "January Invoice", "similarity_score": 0.8934, "mime_type": "application/pdf", "created_at": "2026-01-15T10:30:00+00:00" } ], "count": 1 } ``` **Example**: ```bash # Find top 5 similar documents curl "http:///api/files/42/similar" # Find top 10 documents with at least 50% similarity curl "http:///api/files/42/similar?limit=10&threshold=0.5" ``` **Error Responses**: - `404`: File not found - `422`: Invalid query parameters (limit or threshold out of range) - `500`: Internal error > **Note:** Only pre-computed embeddings are used — no API calls are made during the query. If a file's embedding has not been computed yet, the response includes a `message` field explaining this. Documents without OCR text are excluded from similarity comparisons. ### Similarity Pairs (Corpus-Wide) **GET** `/api/similarity/pairs` Scan the entire document corpus for pairs of highly similar documents, ranked by score. Unlike the per-file `/files/{id}/similar` endpoint, this discovers all matching pairs across all files. **Parameters**: - `threshold` (optional, default: `0.7`, range: `0.0–1.0`): Minimum similarity score for a pair - `limit` (optional, default: `50`, max: `200`): Maximum pairs per page - `page` (optional, default: `1`): Page number **Response**: ```json { "pairs": [ { "file_a": { "file_id": 1, "original_filename": "invoice_jan.pdf", "document_title": "January Invoice", "mime_type": "application/pdf", "created_at": "2026-01-15T10:30:00+00:00" }, "file_b": { "file_id": 5, "original_filename": "invoice_feb.pdf", "document_title": "February Invoice", "mime_type": "application/pdf", "created_at": "2026-02-15T10:30:00+00:00" }, "similarity_score": 0.94 } ], "total_pairs": 12, "threshold": 0.7, "page": 1, "pages": 1, "per_page": 50, "embedding_coverage": { "total_files": 120, "files_with_embedding": 95 } } ``` **Example**: ```bash # Find all document pairs above 90% similarity curl "http:///api/similarity/pairs?threshold=0.9" ``` ### Embedding Diagnostics **GET** `/api/files/{file_id}/embedding-status` Check the embedding status for a specific file: whether OCR text is available, whether an embedding has been computed, and how many dimensions it has. ```bash curl "http:///api/files/42/embedding-status" ``` **POST** `/api/files/{file_id}/compute-embedding` Manually trigger embedding computation for a single file. Useful for debugging or re-computing after configuration changes. Requires OCR text to be available. ```bash curl -X POST "http:///api/files/42/compute-embedding" ``` **GET** `/api/diagnostic/embeddings` Get an overview of embedding coverage across all files: total files, how many have OCR text, how many have embeddings, and per-file status. ```bash curl "http:///api/diagnostic/embeddings" ``` **POST** `/api/diagnostic/compute-all-embeddings` Queue embedding computation for all files that have OCR text but no embedding yet. Each file is processed as a separate background task. ```bash curl -X POST "http:///api/diagnostic/compute-all-embeddings" ``` ### Batch Processing **POST** `/api/processall` Process all PDF files in the configured workdir directory. **Throttling**: For large batches (>20 files by default), tasks are automatically staggered to prevent overwhelming downstream APIs. The throttling behavior can be configured via environment variables: - `PROCESSALL_THROTTLE_THRESHOLD`: Number of files above which throttling is applied (default: 20) - `PROCESSALL_THROTTLE_DELAY`: Delay in seconds between each task submission when throttling (default: 3) **Example**: When processing 25 files with default settings, the first file is queued immediately, the second after 3 seconds, the third after 6 seconds, etc., spreading the load over 72 seconds total. **Response**: ```json { "message": "Enqueued 25 PDFs for processing (throttled over 72 seconds)", "pdf_files": ["file1.pdf", "file2.pdf", ...], "task_ids": ["a1b2c3...", "d4e5f6...", ...], "throttled": true } ``` **POST** `/send_to_google_drive/` Send a processed file to Google Drive. **Parameters**: - `file_path`: Path to the file to upload **Response**: ```json { "task_id": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7g8h-9i0j-k1l2m3n4o5p6", "status": "queued" } ``` ## Integrations Manage per-user integrations (sources and destinations). All endpoints require authentication and are scoped to the current user's integrations. Subscription-tier quota enforcement is applied on creation. ### Quota Enforcement When creating an integration, the API checks the user's subscription tier: | Tier | Storage Destinations | IMAP Sources | |------|---------------------|--------------| | **Free** | 1 | 0 | | **Starter** | 2 | 1 | | **Professional** | 5 | 3 | | **Power** | 10 | Unlimited | Exceeding a quota returns HTTP 403 with a descriptive error message. ### GET /api/integrations/ List all integrations for the current user.

Tokens are ideal for CI/CD pipelines, webhook integrations, and automation scripts. Each token is prefixed with `de_` for easy identification. Only a SHA-256 hash is stored server-side; the plaintext is returned exactly once at creation time. Usage tracking records when each token was last used and from which IP address. ### POST /api/api-tokens/ Create a new API token. Optionally specify a lifetime in days via `expires_in_days` (1–3650). If omitted the token never expires. **Request:** ```json { "name": "CI Pipeline", "expires_in_days": 90 } ``` **Response (201 Created):** ```json { "id": 1, "name": "CI Pipeline", "token_prefix": "de_Ab3xY7kL", "token": "de_Ab3xY7kLmN9pQrStUvWxYz0123456789abcdef", "is_active": true, "last_used_at": null, "last_used_ip": null, "created_at": "2026-03-08T12:00:00Z", "revoked_at": null, "expires_at": "2026-06-06T12:00:00Z" } ``` > **Important:** The `token` field is only included in the creation response. > Copy it immediately — it will not be shown again. ### GET /api/api-tokens/ List all tokens for the authenticated user.

Response: `{"detail": "Token revoked"}` * **Already-revoked token** – permanently deleted from the database. Response: `{"detail": "Token deleted"}` **Response (200):** ```json { "detail": "Token revoked" } ``` ### POST /api/api-tokens/{token_id}/reactivate Reactivate a previously revoked token. Clears `revoked_at` and sets `is_active` back to `true`. **Response (200):** The updated `TokenResponse` object. ### Using API Tokens Include the token in the `Authorization` header of any API request: ```bash # Upload a document curl -X POST "http://your-instance/api/files/ui-upload" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer de_your_token_here" \ -F "file=@/path/to/document.pdf" # List files curl -X GET "http://your-instance/api/files" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer de_your_token_here" ``` **Python example:** ```python import requests response = requests.post( "http://your-instance/api/files/ui-upload", headers={"Authorization": "Bearer de_your_token_here"}, files={"file": open("document.pdf", "rb")}, ) print(response.json()) ``` ## Classification Rules The classification rules API lets you manage custom document classification rules. Rules are evaluated during the `classify` pipeline step to assign a category to each document based on filename patterns, content keywords, and metadata fields. ### Built-in Categories ```bash GET /api/classification-rules/categories ``` Returns the pre-built classification categories. **Response (200):** ```json { "invoice": "Invoice", "contract": "Contract", "receipt": "Receipt", "letter": "Letter", "report": "Report", "bank_statement": "Bank Statement", "tax_document": "Tax Document", "insurance": "Insurance Document", "payslip": "Payslip", "unknown": "Unknown" } ``` ### Rule Types ```bash GET /api/classification-rules/rule-types ``` Returns the supported rule types with descriptions. **Response (200):** ```json [ { "type": "filename_pattern", "label": "Filename Pattern", "description": "Regex pattern matched against the original filename." }, { "type": "content_keyword", "label": "Content Keyword", "description": "Pipe-separated keywords matched against the OCR text." }, { "type": "metadata_match", "label": "Metadata Match", "description": "field=value pattern matched against existing AI metadata." } ] ``` ### List Rules ```bash GET /api/classification-rules/ ``` List all classification rules visible to the current user (system rules + own rules). **Response (200):** ```json [ { "id": 1, "owner_id": "user@example.com", "name": "German Invoice Filename", "category": "invoice", "rule_type": "filename_pattern", "pattern": "(?i)rechnung", "priority": 10, "case_sensitive": false, "enabled": true } ] ``` ### Create Rule ```bash POST /api/classification-rules/ ``` Create a new custom classification rule. **Request:** ```json { "name": "German Invoice Filename", "category": "invoice", "rule_type": "filename_pattern", "pattern": "(?i)rechnung", "priority": 10, "case_sensitive": false, "enabled": true } ``` | Field | Type | Required | Description | |-------|------|----------|-------------| | `name` | string | Yes | Unique rule name (per user) | | `category` | string | Yes | Target category (e.g. `invoice`, `contract`, or custom) | | `rule_type` | string | Yes | One of: `filename_pattern`, `content_keyword`, `metadata_match` | | `pattern` | string | Yes | Regex (filename), pipe-separated keywords (content), or `field=value` (metadata) | | `priority` | integer | No | Higher priority rules are evaluated first (default: 0) | | `case_sensitive` | boolean | No | Case-sensitive matching (default: false) | | `enabled` | boolean | No | Whether the rule is active (default: true) | **Response (201):** ```json { "id": 1, "owner_id": "user@example.com", "name": "German Invoice Filename", "category": "invoice", "rule_type": "filename_pattern", "pattern": "(?i)rechnung", "priority": 10, "case_sensitive": false, "enabled": true } ``` ### Get Rule ```bash GET /api/classification-rules/{rule_id} ``` ### Update Rule ```bash PUT /api/classification-rules/{rule_id} ``` **Request (partial update):** ```json { "priority": 20, "enabled": false } ``` ### Delete Rule ```bash DELETE /api/classification-rules/{rule_id} ``` **Response:** `204 No Content` ## Automation (Zapier / Make.com) Manage automation hook subscriptions for integrating DocuElevate with external platforms like Zapier and Make.com. All endpoints require API token authentication (`Authorization: Bearer `). ### Supported Events The automation system shares event types with the [Webhooks](#webhooks) subsystem: | Event | Description | |-------|-------------| | `document.uploaded` | A new document has been ingested | | `document.processed` | A document finished processing successfully | | `document.failed` | Document processing failed | | `user.signup` | A new user account was created | | `user.plan_changed` | A user's subscription plan changed | | `user.payment_issue` | A payment issue was reported for a user | ### GET /api/automation/events List all valid event types that automation hooks can subscribe to. **Response (200):** ```json ["document.failed", "document.processed", "document.uploaded", "user.payment_issue", "user.plan_changed", "user.signup"] ``` ### POST /api/automation/hooks/subscribe Subscribe to DocuElevate events. Zapier and Make.com call this endpoint to register a webhook URL that receives event notifications. **Request:** ```bash curl -X POST "http://your-instance/api/automation/hooks/subscribe" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer de_your_token_here" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "target_url": "https://hooks.zapier.com/hooks/catch/123456/abcdef/", "events": ["document.processed", "document.uploaded"], "hook_type": "zapier", "secret": "optional-signing-secret", "description": "My Zap for processed documents" }' ``` **Response (201):** ```json { "id": 1, "target_url": "https://hooks.zapier.com/hooks/catch/123456/abcdef/", "events": ["document.processed", "document.uploaded"], "is_active": true, "hook_type": "zapier", "description": "My Zap for processed documents", "has_secret": true } ``` ### GET /api/automation/hooks List all automation hook subscriptions. **Response (200):** ```json [ { "id": 1, "target_url": "https://hooks.zapier.com/hooks/catch/123456/abcdef/", "events": ["document.processed", "document.uploaded"], "is_active": true, "hook_type": "zapier", "description": "My Zap for processed documents", "has_secret": true } ] ``` ### DELETE /api/automation/hooks/{hook_id} Unsubscribe an automation hook. Zapier calls this when a Zap is turned off or deleted. **Response (204):** No content. ### GET /api/automation/triggers/sample/{event} Get sample trigger data for Zapier field mapping. Zapier uses this during Zap setup to discover available fields. **Request:** ```bash curl "http://your-instance/api/automation/triggers/sample/document.processed" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer de_your_token_here" ``` **Response (200):** ```json [ { "id": "evt_sample0002", "event": "document.processed", "timestamp": 1710000060.0, "document_id": 42, "filename": "invoice_2024.pdf", "status": "processed", "title": "Invoice #1234", "owner_id": "user@example.com" } ] ``` ### POST /api/automation/actions/upload Upload a document from an automation platform. This incoming action endpoint allows Zapier or Make.com to push documents into DocuElevate for processing. **Request:** ```bash curl -X POST "http://your-instance/api/automation/actions/upload" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer de_your_token_here" \ -F "file=@/path/to/document.pdf" ``` **Response (200):** ```json { "status": "accepted", "filename": "document.pdf", "task_id": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890" } ``` ### Zapier-Compatible Payload Format When events fire, automation hooks receive a **flat JSON payload** (no nested `data` key) that Zapier and Make.com can easily map: ```json { "id": "evt_a1b2c3d4e5f67890", "event": "document.processed", "timestamp": 1710000060.0, "document_id": 42, "filename": "invoice_2024.pdf", "status": "processed", "title": "Invoice #1234", "owner_id": "user@example.com" } ``` The `id` field is unique per event and is used by Zapier for deduplication. If a `secret` was provided during subscription, an `X-Webhook-Signature` header with an HMAC-SHA256 signature is included. ### Retry Behavior Automation hook deliveries follow the same retry policy as regular webhooks: up to 3 retries with exponential backoff (60 s, 300 s, 900 s) and ±20% jitter. ## Further Assistance For additional help with the API, please contact our support team or refer to the [Development Guide](../CONTRIBUTING.md). ## Mobile App API The mobile API provides endpoints used by the native iOS and Android app. All endpoints require authentication (Bearer token or active session cookie). For full mobile app documentation see [MobileApp.md](./MobileApp.md). ### POST /api/mobile/generate-token Exchange an active web session for a long-lived API token scoped to the mobile app. **Request:** ```json { "device_name": "John's iPhone" } ``` **Response (201 Created):** ```json { "token": "de_AbCdEfGhIjKl...", "token_id": 42, "name": "Mobile App – John's iPhone", "created_at": "2026-03-10T09:30:00Z" } ``` > The `token` is shown **once only**. ### POST /api/mobile/register-device Register an Expo push token to receive push notifications. **Request:** ```json { "push_token": "ExponentPushToken[xxxxxx]", "device_name": "John's iPhone", "platform": "ios" } ``` **Response (201 Created):** Device record with `id`, `platform`, `is_active`, `created_at`. ### GET /api/mobile/devices List all registered push-notification devices for the current user. **Response (200 OK):** Array of device records. ### DELETE /api/mobile/devices/{device_id} Deactivate or permanently delete a push-notification device: * **Active device** – soft-deactivated (record kept, will no longer receive push notifications). Response: `{"detail": "Device deactivated"}` * **Already-inactive device** – permanently deleted from the database. Response: `{"detail": "Device deleted"}` **Response (200)** ### GET /api/mobile/whoami Return basic profile information for the authenticated user. **Response (200 OK):** ```json { "owner_id": "john@example.com", "display_name": "John Doe", "email": "john@example.com", "avatar_url": "https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/...", "is_admin": false } ``` --- ## GraphQL API DocuElevate exposes a GraphQL API at `/graphql` alongside the REST API. It supports flexible queries with field selection, making it ideal for dashboards and integrations that only need a subset of the available data. ### Endpoint | Method | URL | Description | |--------|-----|-------------| | `POST` | `/graphql` | Execute a GraphQL query or mutation | | `GET` | `/graphql` | Open the GraphiQL interactive playground | ### Authentication The GraphQL endpoint honours the same authentication rules as the REST API: - **`AUTH_ENABLED=False`** (default, single-user mode): all queries are allowed without credentials. - **`AUTH_ENABLED=True`** (multi-user mode): a valid session cookie **or** an `Authorization: Bearer ` API token is required. Admin-only queries (settings, users) additionally require the `is_admin` flag. ### Available Queries | Field | Returns | Notes | |-------|---------|-------| | `documents(ownerId, limit, offset)` | `[DocumentType]` | Paginated list of documents | | `document(id)` | `DocumentType` | Single document by primary key | | `pipelines(ownerId, limit, offset)` | `[PipelineType]` | Paginated list of pipelines with steps | | `pipeline(id)` | `PipelineType` | Single pipeline by primary key | | `settings(limit, offset)` | `[SettingType]` | Non-sensitive app settings (**admin only**) | | `users(limit, offset)` | `[UserType]` | User profiles (**admin only**) | | `user(userId)` | `UserType` | Single user profile (**admin only**) | > **Note:** Sensitive configuration keys (API secrets, passwords, tokens) are > automatically excluded from the `settings` query regardless of the caller's > privilege level. ### GraphiQL Playground Navigate to `http:///graphql` in a browser to open the interactive GraphiQL IDE, which provides schema documentation, auto-complete, and the ability to run queries directly. ### Example Queries **List recent documents:** ```graphql { documents(limit: 5) { id originalFilename mimeType fileSize documentTitle createdAt } } ``` **Fetch a pipeline with its steps:** ```graphql { pipeline(id: 1) { id name description isDefault isActive steps { position stepType label enabled } } } ``` **List application settings (admin only):** ```graphql { settings { key value updatedAt } } ``` **List user profiles (admin only):** ```graphql { users(limit: 10) { userId displayName subscriptionTier isBlocked } } ``` **Using variables:** ```graphql query GetDocument($id: Int!) { document(id: $id) { id originalFilename documentTitle isDuplicate ocrQualityScore } } ``` Variables: `{ "id": 42 }` ## System Reset Admin-only endpoints for resetting the system to a clean state.
