Graniitti API

Welcome to the Graniitti API guide!

This guide is an all-in-one resource for developers looking to create applications that access and manage their company's data, such as modifications and statistics, in the Frosmo back end.

This guide contains everything you need to know about the Graniitti API, what it is, and how to use it.

What is the Graniitti API?​

The Graniitti API provides access to the data in the Frosmo back end. You can use the API to retrieve, create, update, and delete data for your company. You can interact with, for example, the following types of data:

  • Company settings

  • Conversion definitions

  • Modifications

  • Segments and segment groups

  • Sites

  • Statistics based on usage data collected on your company's sites

  • Users

For a complete list of the available data types and what you can do with each type, see Graniitti API: Resources.

The Graniitti API is a REST API developed with pragmatic REST design principles in mind. The key design features of the API are:

  • Name-based resource URLs

  • Standard HTTP methods for acting on resources

  • Standard HTTP status codes for all responses, including errors

  • JSON message bodies for all requests and responses, including errors

  • URI-based API versioning

The following figure shows you where the Graniitti API and your application fit in in the Frosmo Platform architecture. For more information about the architecture, see Technical overview.
