Authentication

Every request to the Invoice Auditing API must be authenticated with an Opereit API key using HTTP Basic Auth. An API key is a pair of values:
  • A key ID: a public identifier for the key.
  • A key secret: the password component, prefixed with opr_live_. The secret is shown only once, at creation time, and cannot be retrieved later. Store it in a secrets manager.
Send credentials in the Authorization header as base64-encoded key_id:key_secret:
Most HTTP clients build this header for you when you supply user/password, for example with curl:
API keys are scoped to a single organization. To provision a key, contact your Opereit account manager.

Unauthenticated requests

Requests without a valid Authorization header receive 401 Unauthorized along with a WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Obsydian API" response header:

Conventions

  • All request and response bodies are JSON, except for file uploads which use multipart/form-data.
  • Field names are snake_case.
  • Timestamps are ISO 8601 (2026-04-29T10:15:00Z); date-only fields use YYYY-MM-DD.
  • Monetary amounts, weights, and rates are returned as decimal strings to preserve precision.
  • List endpoints are cursor-paginated with ?limit=50&cursor=<opaque_string> query parameters. Response format: { data, pagination: { cursor, has_more } }.

Errors

Errors return a JSON body with a single error field describing what went wrong:
