API

The Airplane API enables customers to further integrate Airplane into their workflows. The API is loosely organized around top-level resources, is more RPC than REST, accepts JSON-encoded bodies, and returns JSON-encoded responses. The current API endpoints allow for programmatic execution of tasks and runbooks.

Getting started

To use the API to execute a task, you first need an API key. Create a new service account and associated API key on the Service account settings page. See Service accounts and API keys for details.

Once you have your API key, you need to find the slug of the task you wish to run. You can find your task's slug next to the task's name within the task editor or by running airplane tasks list from the CLI. Once you have the task slug, you can execute the task by running the following curl command:

bash
Copied
1
# Substitute YOUR_API_KEY_HERE with your API key
2
curl https://api.airplane.dev/v0/tasks/execute \
3
  -X POST \
4
  -H "X-Airplane-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY_HERE" \
5
  -d '{
6
        "slug": "hello_world",
7
        "paramValues": {
8
            "limit": "10"
9
        }
10
    }'

If your team uses Environments, you can specify which environment the request should run against. To do so, add the header X-Airplane-Env-Slug: <YOUR ENV SLUG> to your request. If you do not specify an environment, the default environment will be used.

Executing the task returns a run ID:

json
Copied
1
{
2
  "runID": "run20220215zv10o6s52qj"
3
}

You can then use the run ID to check on the status of the run along with other metadata:

bash
Copied
1
curl https://api.airplane.dev/v0/runs/get \
2
  -H "X-Airplane-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY_HERE" \
3
  -d 'id=run20220215zv10o6s52qj' \
4
  -G

Authentication

The Airplane API uses API keys to authenticate your requests. API keys are prefixed with tkn_. Authentication to the API is performed by supplying the X-Airplane-API-Key header. Runs and sessions created through the API are recorded as being run by API user.

API keys are associated with Service accounts. You can view and manage your API keys on the Service account settings page.

Service accounts and API keys can be created by Team admins, Developers, and Restricted developers. See Roles for details.

Your API keys carry the privileges to complete sensitive operations, so be sure to keep them secure! Do not share your API keys in publicly accessible areas such as GitHub, client-side code, etc.

All API requests must be made over HTTPS. Any requests made over plain HTTP will fail. Requests without a valid API key will fail and return a 401 error.

bash
Copied
1
# Authenticated request example
2
curl https://api.airplane.dev/v0/runs/get \
3
    -H 'X-Airplane-API-Key: tkn_examplekey123456789EXAMPLEKEY1234567' \
4
    -d id=run20220222example \
5
    -G

Idempotency

The Airplane API supports idempotency which allows clients to safely retry requests without the risk of duplicating operations.

To take advantage of this, clients must include an Idempotency-Key header in their requests. This header is used to uniquely identify an API request across multiple retries. Airplane will store this identifier and ensure future requests with the same identifier are not processed again.

For example, say a client issues an HTTP request to execute a task via POST /v0/tasks/execute. The Airplane API receives the request, starts executing the task, but a network error prevents the API from responding to the client. The client can safely retry the request with the same Idempotency-Key and the API server will return the original request's response instead of re-executing the task.

All GET, PUT, and DELETE methods are safe to retry without any additional client logic. It is still safe to send an Idempotency-Key header with those requests, but it will have no effect.

For POST and PATCH requests, a client should generate a random UUID for each API request and send it via an Idempotency-Key header. For example:


Copied
1
Idempotency-Key: 4ff56c9a-c216-4cfa-84fe-e7a3aa887b84

The Airplane SDKs automatically generate this header and use it for retries.

Idempotency keys are only stored if a request returns a successful (2xx) HTTP status code. It is recommended to retry API requests that return a 429 or 5xx status code (excluding 501). HTTP responses that return a 429 status code will include a Retry-After header that identifies how long clients should wait before retrying.

The Airplane API retains idempotency keys for one hour. If a request is retried more than one hour after the initial request then it will be executed as if it was the first attempt.

If a POST or PATCH HTTP request includes an idempotency key, the HTTP response will include an Idempotency-Key header with an identical value in the response.

Errors

Airplane uses standard HTTP response codes to indicate the success or failure of an API request.

In general:

2xx - A successful request.
4xx - An error caused by the request payload. (e.g. an omitted required parameter, invalid API key, etc.)
5xx - An error with Airplane's servers.

Error responses always contain a human readable message (error) and sometimes contain an error code (code) intended for programatic use.

{

  "error": "Invalid body"

}

The following list documents all status codes that can be returned by the Airplane API.

200 Successful request.

400 The request payload was invalid. This often indicates the parameters were not correct.

401 An invalid API key was provided.

403 The provided API key does not have permissions to perform the request.

404 The requested resource does not exist.

409 The request conflicts with another active request.

423 The requested resource is currently being accessed by another active request.

429 Too many requests hit the API too quickly.

500 Airplane server error.

Tasks

A Task is a lightweight app that represents a single business operation for people at your company to execute.

The current tasks API is focused around allowing you to execute tasks. An instance of an executed task is called a run. See Runs API for how to track a run's status or fetch a run's output after you've executed a task.

Execute Task

POST /v0/tasks/execute

Execute a task with a set of parameter values and receive a run ID to track the task's execution. Check on the status of your newly created run with /runs/get.

Runbooks

Since Runbooks launched, a number of Tasks features shipped that bring Tasks to parity with Runbooks. For many use-cases, you may prefer to use a Task over a Runbook. To learn more, see Migrate to Tasks.

A Runbook is a multi-step, human-in-the-loop workflow. Runbooks are able to take a set of top-level parameters, run one or more functions, and generate output at each step of the way.

The current runbooks API is focused around allowing you to execute runbooks. Each instance of an executed runbook is called a session. See Sessions API for how to track a session's status after you've executed a runbook.

Execute Runbook

POST /v0/runbooks/execute

Execute a runbook and receive a session ID to track the runbook's execution. Check on the status of your newly created session with /sessions/get.
