  description: '## Introduction

    The Aurinko API is a unified API platform allowing developers to quickly build integrations with

    many mailbox providers and services like Google, Office 365, Outlook.com, MS Exchange, IMAP.

    The unified API abstracts away differences between many email, calendar, contact, task APIs

    to make it easy to connect and sync the mailbox data.


    The Aurinko API''s focus is convenient and reliable data synchronization for all supported

    data categories (email, calendar, contacts, tasks) so the API provides methods to receive changes/deltas

    and be notified of the changes (through webhooks) in a unified manner. The API''s sync/deltas model

    should allow developers to build reliable event based solutions easily.


    The Aurinko API is built on HTTP. Our API is RESTful. It has predictable resource URLs.

    It returns HTTP response codes to indicate errors. It also accepts and returns JSON in the HTTP body.


    ## API Authentication

    When you sign up for an account, you are given a Client Id and Secret

    for every application that you create. You use those to go through OAuth flows that allow you

    to start syncing remote account data through Aurinko. An account OAuth flow can be started with

    just the Client Id and the Client Secret will be required to obtain an account access token in the

    "authorization code" flow ("implicit grant" flow does is secured by the "trusted domains" setting).


    Aurinko offers two forms of authentication:


    - `Basic ` - used for authentication flows and administrative requests made from the server side.

    - `Bearer ` - used for working with an account data.

    - `Api Key in Cookie` - for in-browser apps that use Aurinko as their backend API with user sessions.

    - `Api Key in Header (X-Aurinko-Session)` - for server side apps that need user sessions


    Never share your client secret or access token. Keep them guarded and secure.
