Overview

Complete REST API documentation for Elmo's public API.

Elmo provides a REST API for managing organizations and retrieving analytics programmatically. All endpoints require Bearer token authentication.

Base URL: /api/v1

The same reference is browsable inside the app at Settings → API, where it reads the deployment's own spec — every instance serves that spec at /api/v1/openapi.json.

Authentication

Include your API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

Organization owners and admins can issue API keys from Settings → API Keys in the organization's settings sidebar — keys belong to the organization, not to a brand. A key is issued either read-only or read-write, and can be restricted to selected brands and given an expiry date. Instance-wide admin keys can also be configured server-side via the ADMIN_API_KEYS environment variable.

Prefer to drive Elmo from an AI assistant rather than from code? The same data is available over the MCP server, which speaks the same permissions and the same tenancy.

Endpoints
