Create, list, retrieve, update, and delete contacts - the clients (pet owners), businesses, vendors, and staff a practice interacts with - along with their addresses and contact details. GET/POST /v1/contact and PATCH/DELETE /v1/contact/{id} are confirmed from ezyVet developer docs.
openapi: 3.0.3
info:
title: ezyVet API
description: >-
The ezyVet API is a RESTful interface to ezyVet, cloud-based veterinary
practice information management software (PIMS). ezyVet was founded in New
Zealand in 2006 and acquired by IDEXX Laboratories in June 2021, alongside
IDEXX's Cornerstone and Neo PIMS (the acquisition also included Vet Radar).
The full API spans roughly 216 endpoints across animals/patients,
contacts/clients, appointments, consultations, invoices, products, and
diagnostics. Access is partner-gated: a developer must apply for an
integration and receive an approved partner_id plus client_id/client_secret,
then obtain a bearer token via the OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials grant. Tokens
have a 12-hour TTL.
GROUNDING NOTE: The OAuth token endpoint, the /v1/contact CRUD endpoints, the
Standard Diagnostic Integration, and the base/rate-limit behavior below are
confirmed from ezyVet's public developer documentation (developers.ezyvet.com).
The remaining resource paths (animal, appointment, consult, invoice, product,
diagnostic, prescription, vaccination and their reference resources) are
MODELED on ezyVet's documented /v1/{resource} REST pattern and published
resource categories - operationId or path names may differ from the exact
ezyVet catalog. Consult the partner Postman collection for authoritative
request/response shapes.
