API Basics

The ProjectManager.com API responds to HTTP calls using the standard RESTful syntax: GET, PUT, POST and DELETE.

Each endpoint has a different URL, however the base URL for all requests is https://api.projectmanager.com/api/v3. All responses are in JSON format.

Important

If you see :variableName in a URL this means there's a required variable you need to insert at this point.

Authentication

All requests require an API key to be present, and it must be specified in the HTTP header of the request. You can find your API key under the API tab on the Account page in ProjectManager.com.

API keys are issued per-user, therefore all features available via this API are limited to what the user has available on the product.

Permissions can be changed from the Security tab in ProjectManager.com, to enable more features.

      }
}).done(function(data) {
  		log(data);
});
