For Agents

Programmatically execute graphql query or mutation, obtain an oauth access token. Covers 4 operations with bearer authentication.

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Product Hunt API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Product Hunt 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.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Product Hunt API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Identity and Authentication Operations

Use the Product Hunt API to perform identity auth operations programmatically. The API provides 4 endpoints covering core functionality including execute graphql query or mutation, obtain an oauth access token, authorize a user via oauth.

Call POST /api/graphql to execute graphql query or mutation

Automated Authentication Management

Automate authentication operations by combining multiple Product Hunt API endpoints. Agents can obtain an oauth access token and then authorize a user via oauth in a single workflow.

Call POST /oauth/token to obtain an oauth access token, then verify the result

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Product Hunt API 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 bearer tokens manually.

Search Jentic for 'execute graphql query or mutation', 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 Product Hunt bearer token is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'run a GraphQL query for trending products', and Jentic returns the matching Product Hunt operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using Product Hunt API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Product Hunt API use?

The Product Hunt API uses a Bearer token in the Authorization header. 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 execute graphql query or mutation with the Product Hunt API?

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

What are the rate limits for the Product Hunt API?

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 execute graphql query or mutation through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'execute graphql query or mutation'. Jentic returns the matching Product Hunt API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the Product Hunt API have?

The Product Hunt API exposes 4 endpoints covering authentication, graphql operations.

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

Yes. Product Hunt exposes a single GraphQL endpoint (POST /api/graphql) with no resource id in the URL path, so in your self-hosted Jentic One instance you scope the agent by operation: you decide which GraphQL query or mutation it may run and it executes only the calls you permit. Your own rules also govern the OAuth token operations, so the agent uses just the credentials and endpoints you allow. It cannot reach any operation you have not granted.
