Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Catalog Products to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Catalog Products, 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.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Catalog Products API for, with concrete tasks.

★ E-Commerce Operations

Use the Catalog Products to perform e commerce operations programmatically. The API provides 4 endpoints covering core functionality including create product, list products, show product details.

Call POST /v1/catalogs/products to create product

Automated products Management

Automate products operations by combining multiple Catalog Products endpoints. Agents can list products and then show product details in a single workflow.

Call GET /v1/catalogs/products to list products, then verify the result

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Catalog Products endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle oauth2 tokens manually.

Search Jentic for 'create product', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?

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

Credential isolation

Your PayPal OAuth client id and secret are stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, with token refresh handled for you. They never enter the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'create a product' or 'list catalog products', and Jentic returns the matching Catalog Products operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using Catalog Products API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Catalog Products use?

The Catalog Products uses OAuth 2.0 for authorization. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

Can I create product with the Catalog Products?

Yes. Use the POST /v1/catalogs/products endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

What are the rate limits for the Catalog Products?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

How do I create product through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'create product'. Jentic returns the matching Catalog Products operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the Catalog Products have?

The Catalog Products exposes 4 endpoints covering products operations.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the PayPal Catalog Products API?

Yes. Because you self-host Jentic One, your own rules decide which of the four Catalog Products operations the agent may call, so you can allow it to list products and show product details while withholding the create (POST /v1/catalogs/products) and update (PATCH /v1/catalogs/products/{product_id}) operations. Since the product id sits in the URL path, you can pin the agent to reading a single product rather than the whole catalog. The stored PayPal OAuth client credentials are injected only for the operations you permit, so the agent never sees the raw secrets or reaches endpoints you have not granted.
