Getting Started

Base URL

Use the production API at:

https://slowstack.tv/api/v1

Step 1: Create your API key

Create your key in your Slowstack profile settings.

• You can only have one key at a time.
• The full key is shown once when created or rotated.
• Store the key in your backend secret manager.

Step 2: Send your first request

Use the key with the Authorization header.

curl -X GET "https://slowstack.tv/api/v1/servers?limit=5" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Step 3: Parse response payloads

Most endpoints return:

{
  "data": [],
  "meta": {
    "hasMore": false
  }
}

Available endpoints for API keys

• GET /servers
• GET /servers/{ip}/{port}
• GET /servers/{ip}/{port}/players
• GET /players
• GET /players/{uuid}
• GET /players/{uuid}/sessions

No other routes are allowed with developer API keys.

Read-only behavior

Developer API keys are read-only.

• Only GET requests are permitted.
• POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE requests are rejected.

Rate limit

• Developer API keys are limited to 60 requests per 60 seconds per key.
• On 429, respect Retry-After and retry with exponential backoff + jitter.

Not available with API keys

These endpoints are intentionally blocked for developer keys:

• /servers/locations
• /servers/heatmap
• /streams
• tag endpoints
• account export endpoints
• all other /api/v1/* routes not listed above
