  description: "# Introduction\n\nThe Coram API enables seamless programmatic access to your security camera infrastructure, allowing you to build custom integrations and automate workflows.\n\n# Supported Actions\n\nManage and interact with your Coram platform resources:\n\n| Resource | Description |\n| -------- | ----------- |\n| **Camera Groups** | Organize and configure camera collections |\n| **Cameras** | Access camera settings, streams, and metadata |\n| **Locations** | Manage physical site configurations |\n| **NVRs** | Control and monitor network video recorders |\n| **Access Control** | List access control doors and trigger remote unlocks |\n\n# Required Headers\n\nEvery API request must include the following headers:\n\n| Header | Required | Description |\n| ------ | -------- | ----------- |\n| `X-Auth-Token` | Yes | Your API key (from the API key List Page) |\n\n**Example:**\n```\ncurl -X GET \"https://api.coram.ai/developer-api/v1/cameras\" \\\n  -H \"X-Auth-Token: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\"\n```\n\n# Response Format\n\nAll API responses follow a consistent structure based on the operation result.\n\n## Success Response\n\n**List Operations** (e.g., `GET /v1/cameras`)\n\nReturns a `results` array with pagination support:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"results\": [\n    { \"id\": \"cam_001\", \"name\": \"Front Door\", ... },\n    { \"id\": \"cam_002\", \"name\": \"Lobby\", ... }\n  ],\n  \"has_more\": true\n}\n```\n\nWhen `has_more` is `true`, additional results are available. Use pagination parameters to fetch more.\n\n**Bulk/Batch Operations** (e.g., `POST /v1/cameras`, `PATCH /v1/cameras`)\n\nReturns a top-level `status` field indicating whether the API request was processed, and a `results` array where each item reflects the outcome of an individual operation:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"status\": \"success\",\n  \"results\": [\n    { \"status\": \"success\", \"data\": { \"id\": \"cam_001\", \"mac_address\": \"...\" } },\n    { \"status\": \"error\", \"error\": { \"code\": \"VALIDATION_ERROR\", \"message\": \"...\" } }\n  ]\n}\n```\n\n| Field | Description |\n| ----- | ----------- |\n| `status` (top-level) | `\"success\"` if the request was processed |\n| `results[].status` | `\"success\"` or `\"error\"` for each operation |\n| `results[].data` | Present when `status` is `\"success\"` |\n| `results[].error` | Present when `status` is `\"error\"` |\n\n## Error Response\n\nWhen an error occurs, the response includes `status` set to `\"error\"` along with detailed error information:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"status\": \"error\",\n  \"error\": {\n    \"code\": \"VALIDATION_ERROR\",\n    \"message\": \"Invalid MAC address format\",\n    \"field\": \"mac_address\"\n  }\n}\n```\n\n**Error Fields:**\n\n| Field | Type | Description |\n| ----- | ---- | ----------- |\n| `code` | string | Machine-readable error code |\n| `message` | string | Human-readable error description |\n| `field` | string | The field that caused the error (if applicable) |\n\n\n# HTTP Status Codes\n\nThe API uses standard HTTP status codes to indicate the success or failure of requests:\n\n## Success Codes\n\n| Code | Description |\n| ---- | ----------- |\n| `200 OK` | Request succeeded |\n| `201 Created` | Resource successfully created |\n| `204 No Content` | Request succeeded with no response body |\n\n## Client Error Codes\n\n| Code | Description |\n| ---- | ----------- |\n| `400 Bad Request` | Invalid request syntax or parameters |\n| `401 Unauthorized` | Missing or invalid API key |\n| `403 Forbidden` | Valid API key but insufficient permissions |\n| `404 Not Found` | Requested resource does not exist |\n| `422 Unprocessable Entity` | Validation error in request body |\n| `429 Too Many Requests` | Rate limit exceeded |\n\n## Server Error Codes\n\n| Code | Description |\n| ---- | ----------- |\n| `500 Internal Server Error` | Unexpected server error (rare) |\n| `502 Bad Gateway` | Upstream service unavailable |\n| `503 Service Unavailable` | Service temporarily unavailable |\n\n\n# Error Handling Best Practices\n\n1. **Always check the `status` field** — Verify if the response indicates `\"success\"` or `\"error\"`\n\n2. **Handle specific error codes** — Use the `error.code` field to handle different error types programmatically\n\n3. **Implement retry logic** — For `429` and `5xx` errors, implement exponential backoff\n\n4. **Log error details** — Capture `error.code`, `error.message`, and `error.field` for debugging\n\n**Example error handling:**\n```python\nresponse = api.create_camera(data)\n\nif response[\"status\"] == \"error\":\n    error = response[\"error\"]\n    if error[\"code\"] == \"VALIDATION_ERROR\":\n        print(f\"Invalid {error['field']}: {error['message']}\")\n    elif error[\"code\"] == \"DUPLICATE_RESOURCE\":\n        print(\"Camera already exists\")\n    else:\n        print(f\"Error: {error['message']}\")\n```\n\n---\n\n# Getting Started\n\n1. **Generate an API key** from your Coram app settings\n2. **Explore the endpoints** in the navigation to begin integrating\n\nNeed help?
