Accela API
The Accela API is a focused 30-endpoint cut of the Accela Civic Platform surface, covering the most common operations for managing records, inspections, addresses, contacts, parcels, documents, and professionals. It targets civic engagement applications - permitting portals, contractor tools, and inspection apps - where developers need core CRUD on records and inspections without the full breadth of the platform API. Authentication is OAuth 2.0 against auth.accela.com and requests are scoped to an agency via the X-Accela-Agency header.

Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for Accela Civic Platform API, keeping it validated and agent-ready. The Accela Civic Platform v4 API powers government-facing applications for permitting, code enforcement, licensing, and service requests, exposing 86 endpoints across records, inspections, contacts, addresses, parcels, documents, payments, and workflow operations. Authentication is OAuth 2.0 against auth.accela.com with the agency scoped via the X-Accela-Agency header. It is used by civic engagement portals, contractor-facing tools, and inspection mobile apps that need to read and update agency case data.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh2
Step 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
