Introduction

The Silent. API provides a powerful interface for managing applications, data, and integrations. Built with modern REST principles, it offers seamless integration for your development projects.

Key Features

• RESTful Design: Clean, predictable API endpoints
• JSON Responses: All responses are in JSON format
• Rate Limiting: Built-in protection against abuse
• Comprehensive Documentation: Detailed guides and examples
• Developer Support: Active community and support

Authentication

All API requests must include your API key in the x-api-key header. Keep your API key secure and never expose it in client-side code.

Example Request

GET /api/v1/applications HTTP/1.1
Host: api.silentdevstudio.com
x-api-key: SILENT_************************************
Content-Type: application/json

Quick Start

Get started with the Silent. API in just a few steps:

1. Get Your API Key

Visit the API-Beta page to generate your API key.

2. Install Dependencies

npm install axios
# or
npm install node-fetch

3. Make Your First Request

const axios = require('axios');

const api = axios.create({
  baseURL: 'https://api.silentdevstudio.com/api/v1',
  headers: {
    'x-api-key': process.env.SILENT_API_KEY
  }
});

// List your applications
api.get('/applications')
  .then(response => console.log(response.data))
  .catch(error => console.error(error));

API Endpoints

{
  "applications": [
    {
      "id": "app_123456789",
      "name": "My Game",
      "description": "An awesome Roblox game",
      "created_at": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z",
      "updated_at": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z"
    }
  ],
  "total": 1,
  "limit": 50,
  "offset": 0
}

{
  "name": "My New Game",
  "description": "A revolutionary Roblox experience"
}

Code Examples

const axios = require('axios');

const api = axios.create({
  baseURL: 'https://api.silentdevstudio.com/api/v1',
  headers: {
    'x-api-key': process.env.SILENT_API_KEY
  }
});

// Get all applications
const getApplications = async () => {
  try {
    const response = await api.get('/applications');
    return response.data;
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error:', error.response?.data || error.message);
  }
};

const fetch = require('node-fetch');

const API_BASE = 'https://api.silentdevstudio.com/api/v1';
const API_KEY = process.env.SILENT_API_KEY;

const getApplications = async () => {
  try {
    const response = await fetch(`${API_BASE}/applications`, {
      headers: {
        'x-api-key': API_KEY,
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
      }
    });
    
    if (!response.ok) {
      throw new Error(`HTTP ${response.status}`);
    }
    
    return await response.json();
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error:', error.message);
  }
};

cURL Examples

# Get all applications
curl -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
     https://api.silentdevstudio.com/api/v1/applications

# Create new application
curl -X POST \
     -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d '{"name":"My Game","description":"Awesome game"}' \
     https://api.silentdevstudio.com/api/v1/applications

Error Handling

The API returns standard HTTP status codes and detailed error messages to help you handle errors gracefully.

Error Response Format

{
  "error": {
    "code": "INVALID_API_KEY",
    "message": "The provided API key is invalid",
    "details": "Please check your API key and try again"
  }
}

Rate Limits

To ensure fair usage and prevent abuse, the API implements rate limiting:

• 100 requests per minute per API key
• 1000 requests per hour per API key
• Rate limit headers are included in all responses

Best Practices

Security

• Store API keys securely using environment variables
• Never commit API keys to version control
• Rotate API keys regularly
• Use HTTPS for all API requests

Performance

• Implement proper error handling and retries
• Use pagination for large datasets
• Cache responses when appropriate
• Monitor rate limits

Development

• Use descriptive application names
• Implement proper logging
• Test with different scenarios
• Keep your integration updated

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get an API key?

Visit the API-Beta page to generate your API key.

What if I lose my API key?

Generate a new API key from the API-Beta page. Old keys will become invalid.

Can I regenerate my API key?

Yes, you can generate a new API key at any time. The old key will be invalidated.

Is there a sandbox environment?

Currently, we only provide a production environment. Test your integrations carefully.
