The Deck API is a REST API that accepts JSON request bodies and returns JSON responses. All endpoints require authentication via a Bearer token.

​
Base URL

All requests are made against the Deck API at: 
https://api.deck.co/v2

​
Authentication

Every request requires an API key passed as a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Keys are available in your Console. 
curl https://api.deck.co/v2/test \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_your_key_here"

​
Verify your key

Call the test endpoint to confirm your key is valid. 
curl https://api.deck.co/v2/test \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_your_key_here"

{
  "status": "ready",
  "environment": "live",
  "request_id": "req_a1b2c3d4..."
}

​
Request format

All requests use Content-Type: application/json. Pass request bodies as JSON. 
curl -X POST https://api.deck.co/v2/agents \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_your_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Hotel Reservations",
    "description": "Fetch and manage hotel bookings"
  }'
Path parameters are part of the URL. Query parameters are used for filtering and pagination on list endpoints.

​
Response format

Every resource response includes a standard set of fields: 
{
  "id": "agt_a1b2c3d4...",
  "object": "agent",
  "name": "Hotel Reservations",
  "description": "Fetch and manage hotel bookings",
  "created_at": "2025-01-15T09:00:00Z",
  "updated_at": "2025-01-15T09:00:00Z",
  "request_id": "req_a1b2c3d4..."
}
FieldDescription
idUnique identifier, prefixed by resource type (agt_, src_, cred_, sess_, task_, trun_, etc.)
objectResource type as a string. Useful for parsing polymorphic responses.
created_atISO 8601 timestamp
updated_atISO 8601 timestamp
request_idUnique identifier for the API request. Include this when contacting support.
Delete responses return a confirmation object: 
{
  "id": "agt_a1b2c3d4...",
  "object": "agent",
  "deleted": true,
  "request_id": "req_a1b2c3d4..."
}

​
Request IDs

Every response includes a request_id. When something goes wrong, include this value in support requests so Deck can trace exactly what happened.
