For Agents

Authenticate Afosto users via OAuth, manage instant search indexes and documents, and configure QuicQ CDN proxies for a Dutch commerce stack.

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Afosto API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Afosto API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

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 | sh

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 instance

Jentic 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.

Capabilities

What an agent can do with Afosto API.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Afosto API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Headless Commerce Search

Power product and content search on a headless Afosto storefront by uploading catalog documents to an Instant Search index and querying it from the frontend. Index aliases let you rebuild indexes in the background and atomically swap them in, keeping search latency stable. Typical merchants run thousands of products through a small number of indexes with locale-specific settings.

Create an instant search index named 'products-nl', bulk upsert 500 product documents, then run a search for 'fietshelm' against the index alias and return the top 10 hits

OAuth Identity for Storefront Apps

Use Afosto's OAuth endpoints to authorize storefront and back-office users, obtain bearer tokens, and call the rest of the platform on their behalf. The session authorize flow supports SPA and mobile clients that need short-lived sessions, while the standard authorize endpoint covers server-side exchanges. All subsequent index and proxy calls reuse the same bearer token.

Exchange an authorization code at POST /oauth/authorize for a bearer token, then call GET /instant/indexes with that token to confirm the session is active

CDN Proxy Automation

Manage QuicQ CDN proxy configurations from infrastructure-as-code pipelines instead of the Afosto dashboard. The Proxies endpoints let an agent enumerate existing routes, register new ones for media subdomains, and update cache settings without manual UI work. Useful when spinning up new locales or campaign sites.

List all Afosto QuicQ proxies, then add a new proxy for the subdomain 'cdn-promo.example.com' pointing at the campaign asset bucket

AI Agent Storefront Operations

Through Jentic, an agent can run end-to-end Afosto storefront tasks - refreshing search indexes, rotating aliases, and adjusting CDN proxies - by searching for the operation it needs and executing the call without storing the merchant's bearer token in its context. Jentic handles the OAuth secret in the vault and returns scoped credentials per call.

Search Jentic for 'reindex afosto products', load the documents upsert schema, and execute a refresh of the live product index

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Your Afosto OAuth credential is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. The long-lived token never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'reindex Afosto products', and Jentic returns the matching Afosto operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using Afosto API through Jentic.

Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for Afosto API?

Afosto does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call Afosto API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started with Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer.

What authentication does the Afosto API use?

The Afosto API uses HTTP bearer tokens. Obtain a token by exchanging an authorization code at POST /oauth/authorize, then send it as Authorization: Bearer <token> on every subsequent call. Through Jentic, the bearer token is stored encrypted in the credential vault and never enters the agent's context.

Can I run product search against an Afosto index with this API?

Yes. Use POST /instant/search/{id} to query a specific index by id, or GET /instant/search/indexes/{alias} to resolve and search through a stable alias. Documents are loaded via POST /instant/indexes/{id}/documents in batches.

What are the rate limits for the Afosto API?

Afosto does not document fixed rate limits in the public spec. Treat the API as standard SaaS - back off on HTTP 429 responses and inspect Retry-After. For high-volume reindex jobs, batch document upserts rather than one-by-one calls.

How do I reindex an Afosto product catalog through Jentic?

Search Jentic for 'upsert afosto documents', load the schema for POST /instant/indexes/{id}/documents, and execute the call with your batch of product records. After indexing, repoint the alias via the indexes endpoint so live search traffic switches over.

Can I manage Afosto QuicQ CDN proxies from code?

Yes. The Proxies group exposes endpoints to list, create, and update CDN proxy routes, so you can manage QuicQ from CI/CD or an agent rather than the Afosto dashboard.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Afosto API?

Yes. Because you self-host Jentic One, your own rules decide which Afosto operations and credentials the agent may use. Afosto puts the index id directly in the URL path for document and search operations, such as POST /instant/indexes/{id}/documents and POST /instant/search/{id}, so you can pin the agent to a single index and to read-only actions like listing indexes or running searches. You choose which operations are exposed, so the OAuth authorize endpoints and CDN proxy changes stay off-limits unless you explicitly add them.
