title: Flow Service API - Sources Flow specs API
description: "Adobe Experience Platform allows data to be ingested from external sources while providing you with the ability to structure, label, and enhance incoming data using Platform services. You can ingest data from a variety of sources such as Adobe applications, cloud-based storages, databases, and many others. The service provides a RESTful API from which all supported sources are connectable.\n>**NOTE**: Refer to [Flow Service API - Destinations](https://developer.adobe.com/experience-platform-apis/references/destinations/) if you are looking for API documentation to perform operations on *destinations* in Experience Platform.\n- **Related documentation**:\n - [Sources documentation](https://www.adobe.com/go/sources-overview-en)\n\n- **Visualize API calls with Postman** (a free, third-party software):\n - [Flow Service API Postman collection on GitHub](https://github.com/adobe/experience-platform-postman-samples/blob/master/apis/experience-platform/Flow%20Service%20API.postman_collection.json)\n - [Video guide for creating the Postman environment](https://video.tv.adobe.com/v/28832)\n - [Steps for importing environments and collections in Postman](https://learning.postman.com/docs/getting-started/importing-and-exporting-data/)\n\n- **API paths**:\n - PLATFORM Gateway URL: https://<span>platform.adobe.io/\n - Base path for this API: /data/foundation/flowservice\n - Example of a complete path: https://<span>platform.adobe.io/data/foundation/flowservice/connections\n\n- **Required headers**:\n - All calls require the headers `Authorization`, `x-gw-ims-org-id`, and `x-api-key`. For more information on how to obtain these values, see the [authentication tutorial](http://www.adobe.com/go/platform-api-authentication-en).\n - All resources in Experience Platform are isolated to specific virtual sandboxes. All requests to Platform APIs require the header `x-sandbox-name` whose value is the all-lowercase name of the sandbox the operation will take place in (for example, \"prod\"). See the [sandboxes overview](https://adobe.com/go/sandbox-overview-en) for more information.\n - All requests with a payload in the request body (such as POST, PUT, and PATCH calls) must include the header `Content-Type` with a value of `application/json`.\n\n- **API error handling**:\n - Refer to the Experience Platform API troubleshooting guide for [FAQs](https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/landing/troubleshooting.html?lang=en#faq), [API status codes](https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/landing/troubleshooting.html?lang=en#api-status-codes), and [request header errors](https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/landing/troubleshooting.html?lang=en#request-header-errors). You can also view a list of [common Flow Service error messages](https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/sources/errors/flow-service-errors.html) and resolution suggestions.\n\n- **Sorting and filtering responses**:\n - When performing listing (GET) requests in the Flow Service API, you can use query parameters to [sort and filter responses](https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/dataflows/api/sort-and-filter.html?lang=en)."

description: Flow specs retain information that define a flow. They include information on how a flow can be scheduled, whether a flow supports options like partial ingestion and error diagnostics, as well as the parameters required for different mappings from source to target. Flow specs also include information on how a flow run can be created and a list of connection spec IDs and target connection IDs that a given flow can support. Flow specs are organization agnostic.

This parameter is also used to cut down the amount of data returned in the response body. For example, `property=state==enabled&orderby=createdAt` returns only base connections that have a status of `enabled` in the order of their creation, in ascending order.
