  description: "## Introduction\nThe Slide 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.\n\n## Authentication\nWe use API tokens to authenticate requests. You can view and manage your API tokens in the [Slide Console](https://docs.slide.tech).\nWhen making HTTP requests, you'll need to include the API token in the `Authorization` header, using Bearer auth (e.g. `Authorization: Bearer YOUR_SECRET_TOKEN`).\n\nExample:\n```shell\n$ curl -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_SECRET_TOKEN' 'https://api.slide.tech/v1/device'\n```\n\n## Pagination\nAll list endpoints support pagination. You can use the `limit` and `offset` query parameters to control the number of items returned and the starting index.\nList responses will include a `pagination` key that includes the `next_offset` to use for pagination.\nIf `next_offset` is not present, that indicates there are no more items to fetch.\n\nExample:\n```shell\n$ curl -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_SECRET_TOKEN' \\\n    'https://api.slide.tech/v1/device?offset=0&limit=10'\n{\n    \"pagination\": {\n        \"next_offset\": 10\n    },\n    \"data\": [\n        ...\n    ]\n}\n```\n\n## Rate Limiting\nWe limit the number of requests you can make to the API within a certain time frame.\nEach API token has a pool of `50` requests. We refill this pool at a rate of `10` requests per second.\nIf you exceed the rate limit, you'll receive a response with a `429 Too Many Requests` HTTP code and a `err_rate_limit_exceeded` error code.\nPlease wait before retrying the request. We recommend you implement an exponential backoff strategy to handle rate limits.\n\n## Errors\nSlide uses conventional HTTP response codes to indicate the success or failure of an API request.\nIn 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 Slide's servers.\n\nWe also include [error codes and details](#model/error) in the response, which may provide more context about the error.\n\nExample:\n```shell\n$ curl 'https://api.slide.tech/v1/device'\n{\n    \"codes\": [\n        \"err_missing_authentication\"\n    ],\n    \"details\": [\n        ...\n    ],\n    \"message\": \"unauthorized\"\n}\n```\n\nSome common error codes are:\n\n| Code                         | Description                                                                                                                                             |\n|------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| `err_endpoint_not_found`     | Requested endpoint does not exist.                                                                                                                      |\n| `err_entity_not_found`       | Requested entity does not exist.                                                                                                                        |\n| `err_validation_error`       | Bad request due to validation error. The error `details` will contain any fields that were not valid.                                                   |\n| `err_missing_authentication` | Unauthorized due to missing API token. See [authentication](#description/authentication) for more details.                                              |\n| `err_unauthorized`           | Unauthorized due to invalid API token. You've provided an invalid API token or the API token does not have permission to access the requested resource. |\n| `err_internal_server_error`  | Something went wrong. If you retry the request and it does not succeed, you may contact us at `hey@slide.tech`.                                         |\n| `err_rate_limit_exceeded`    | Rate limit exceeded. Please wait before retrying the request. See [rate limiting](#description/rate-limiting) for more details.                         |\n\n<details>\n  <summary>Show more error codes.</summary>\n\n| Code                                | Description                                                                                                           |\n|-------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| `err_agent_not_connected_to_device` | Agent is not connected to the device. Ensure the agent is powered on and has network connectivity.                    |\n| `err_device_not_connected_to_cloud` | Device is not connected to the cloud. Ensure the device is powered on and has network connectivity.                   |\n| `err_backup_already_running`        | A backup is already running for this agent. Please wait for the current backup to complete before starting a new one. |\n| `err_client_not_found`              | Client not found. Ensure the client ID is valid and the client exists.                                                |\n\n</details>\n\n## Eventual Consistency\n\nSlide operates an eventual consistency model, where data may not be immediately available after an operation.\nThis is due to the distributed nature of our system and the need for replication and synchronization across multiple\nsystems. Users should expect that operations may take a short period of time to propagate and become visible to all\ncomponents of the system.\n\n## Deprecations and Breaking Changes\n\n### Active Deprecations\n\n`Device.ip_addresses` and `Agent.ip_addresses` will be removed. They have been replaced by `Device.addresses` and `Agent.addresses` respectively.\n"
