OpenAPI Specification

kno2-directory-api-openapi.yml Raw ↑
openapi: 3.2.0
info:
  title: Kno2 Communication Attachments Directory API
  description: 'Kno2 is a healthcare Interoperability-as-a-Service network. Through a single Communication API you SEND, RECEIVE, and FIND patient information - Direct Secure Messaging, clinical document exchange, HL7 FHIR, HL7 V2.x, and cloud fax - across Kno2''s private network, Carequality, eHealth Exchange, and TEFCA (Kno2 is a federally designated QHIN).


    SCOPE AND SOURCING: The endpoints modeled in this document are the CONFIRMED messaging surface (api/token, api/messages, api/messages/{id}/attachments, api/documenttypes, api/directory/validate). They are grounded in Kno2''s own open-source integrator reference, the Kno2.ApiTestClient (https://github.com/Kno2/Kno2.ApiTestClient), whose configuration and helper code use these exact relative paths, HTTP verbs, and the OAuth2 client-credentials token flow. Request/response schemas are MODELED from that reference client and Kno2 product documentation; the full field-level contracts live behind the login-walled developer portal (https://developer.kno2.com) and are provisioned per partner.


    Kno2 also markets FHIR resource query/retrieval and cross-network patient record location (Carequality / eHealth Exchange / TEFCA). Those are real product capabilities but their specific endpoint paths are partner-provisioned and NOT publicly documented, so they are intentionally omitted here rather than fabricated.


    BASE HOST: Kno2 does not expose one shared public API host. Each integrator is provisioned a per-subscription tenant, e.g. https://{subscription}.kno2fy.com in production and https://{subscription}.kno2-stage.com in the staging sandbox. Access requires OAuth2 client credentials (client id + secret) and an IP allowlist configured by a Kno2 admin.'

  x-sourcing: Endpoints, paths, verbs, and the OAuth2 client-credentials token flow are CONFIRMED from Kno2's official ApiTestClient (github.com/Kno2/Kno2.ApiTestClient, app.config + ApiHelper.cs). Payload schemas are MODELED and simplified.
