API reference
The Happo API is a (mostly RESTful) JSON API hosted at happo.io. It can be used to create deep integrations with Happo. Have a look at the Native Apps integration for an example of how you can use the API.
Authentication

All API endpoints are auth protected. To successfully issue a command, you need to provide an authentication header with your request. There are two ways to authenticate. JWT authentication is more secure but can be a little tricky to set up. HTTP Basic authentication is a less secure alternative, but is a good option if you want a simpler setup.
Basic authentication
With Basic authentication, you provide an Authorization: Basic <token> header where the token is a base64 encoded string of your apiKey:apiSecret tokens.
JWT authentication
This auth token is a JSON web token generated based on your API key and API secret. Pass { key: <your API key> } as the payload of the JWT call and the API secret as the secret, and set a kid header equal to the API key. Pass the resulting token as a Authorization: Bearer <generated token> header in all API requests.
An example of how to construct the JWT token can be found in the source code for the happo.io client.
