Headless clients authenticate by sending either a Gumnut API key (`apikey_...`) or an OAuth access token as a Bearer token in the `Authorization` header. The Gumnut web and mobile apps sign in with a first-party session (Clerk session JWT) instead, which is also the only credential that can manage API keys. contact: name: Gumnut url: https://www.gumnut.ai/contact version: 1.0.0 servers: - url: https://api.gumnut.ai description: Production security: - apiKeyAuth: [] - oauthJwtAuth: [] tags: - name: assets description: >- Photos and videos in a library: upload, list and filter, update metadata, trash and restore. - name: search description: >- Content-based search over a library's assets, with album, person, date, and location filters. - name: albums description: User-curated collections of assets. - name: album-assets description: Link records connecting albums to their member assets. - name: stacks description: >- Groups of related shots of the same moment, presented as a single unit with a cover asset. - name: people description: Named people, each built from clustered faces. - name: faces description: Detected faces and their assignment to people. - name: libraries description: Top-level containers that own assets, albums, people, and everything else. - name: events description: Change-event feed for keeping client state in sync. - name: tasks description: Status of background processing tasks. - name: users description: The authenticated user's profile. - name: api-keys description: >- Create and manage Gumnut API keys.
