Usage

• Every call is recorded in the account audit log. Don’t put secrets in request fields.

Authorizations

app_key · string · query · required

App key issued from the Flashduty console under Account → APP Keys. Required on every public API call. Keep it secret — it grants the same access as the owning account.

Body

application/json

Request with a single numeric ID.

id · integer<uint64> · required

Resource ID.

Response

200

application/json

Success

Success response envelope. On every 2xx response, request_id identifies the call (also mirrored in the Flashcat-Request-Id header) and data holds the endpoint-specific payload. Failure responses use a different shape — see ErrorResponse.

request_id · string · required

Unique ID for this request. Mirrored in the Flashcat-Request-Id response header. Include it when reporting issues.

Example:

"01HK8XQE3Z7JM2NTFQ5YJ8P9R4"

data · object · required

Empty response body. The server returns data: null on success.
