info:
  title: Cavuno v1 REST Operator API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: 'The Cavuno API is organized around REST. Our API has predictable resource-oriented URLs, accepts JSON-encoded request bodies, returns JSON-encoded responses, and uses standard HTTP response codes, authentication, and verbs. ## Base URL


    Production: `https://api.cavuno.com/v1`


    All API requests must be made over HTTPS. Calls made over plain HTTP will fail. ## Authentication


    The Cavuno API uses API keys to authenticate requests. You can view and manage your API keys in the Cavuno dashboard, under Settings → Developer → API keys. Cavuno API keys have the prefix `cavuno_live_`. Your API keys carry many privileges, so be sure to keep them secure. Do not share your secret API keys in publicly accessible areas such as GitHub, client-side code, and so forth. Authentication to the API is performed via Bearer auth. Provide your API key as the bearer token in the `Authorization` header:


    ```bash

    curl https://api.cavuno.com/v1/jobs \

    -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_SECRET_API_KEY"

    ```


    API requests without authentication will fail. ## Rate limits


    The Cavuno API has rate limits in place to ensure stability and reliability. By default, API keys are limited to 100 requests per minute. If you exceed your limit, requests return an HTTP 429 response with a `Retry-After` header indicating when you can try again. If you have a use case that needs a higher limit, contact support. ## Idempotency


    The API supports idempotency for safely retrying requests without accidentally performing the same operation twice. For example, if a request to create a job fails due to a network connection error, you can safely retry the request with the same idempotency key, and we''ll guarantee that only one job is created. To perform an idempotent request, provide an additional `Idempotency-Key` header on any `POST`, `PATCH`, or `DELETE` request:


    ```bash

    curl https://api.cavuno.com/v1/jobs \

    -X POST \

    -H "Authorization: Bearer cavuno_live_..." \

    -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \

    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \

    -d ''{ "title": "Senior Engineer" }''

    ```


    ## Errors


    Cavuno uses conventional HTTP response codes to indicate the success or failure of an API request. In general: codes in the `2xx` range indicate success, codes in the `4xx` range indicate an error that failed given the information provided (e.g., a required parameter was omitted), and codes in the `5xx` range indicate an error with Cavuno''s servers (these are rare). Error responses include a JSON body with details:


    ```json

    {

    "error": {

    "code": "validation_bad_request",

    "message": "Field ''title'' is required.",

    "requestId": "req_..."

    }

    }

    ```


    Some errors carry an additional `details` field with structured context, such as per-field validation issues. ### Plan upgrade hints


    When an Operator API request is refused because of the board''s Cavuno plan, the error also carries an `upgrade` object. It names the capability that blocked the request, the cheapest self-serve plan that unlocks it (when that can be told), and the hosted billing endpoints that start the upgrade:


    ```json

    {

    "error": {

    "code": "settings_plan_required_for_branding_removal",

    "message": "Removing Cavuno branding requires a plan that includes branding removal.",

    "requestId": "req_...",

    "upgrade": {

    "capability": "canRemoveBranding",

    "requiredPlan": "basic",

    "checkout": { "method": "POST", "path": "/v1/billing/checkout" },

    "changePlan": { "method": "POST", "path": "/v1/billing/upgrade" }

    }

    }

    }

    ```


    Call `GET /v1/billing/subscription` first. With no active subscription, use `checkout`; with one, use `changePlan`. Send `{ "planKey": "" }` and give the returned `url` to a person: both endpoints return a hosted page where a person confirms the purchase. Nothing is charged until they do. Each `path` is relative to the API origin (`https://api.cavuno.com`), like `Location` headers and list `url` fields, so do not join it to a base URL that already ends in `/v1`.'
