Cliniko is practice management software for allied health practices and clinics - physiotherapy, osteopathy, chiropractic, podiatry, psychology, massage, and similar - covering patient records, appointment scheduling and online bookings, practitioners and businesses (locations), treatment notes, invoicing, and payments. Cliniko exposes a well-documented public REST API over HTTPS. The API is region-sharded - the base host is derived from the shard suffix on your API key (for example `https://api.au1.cliniko.com/v1/`) - and is authenticated with an API key passed as the username in HTTP Basic authentication. Every request must also send a `User-Agent` header containing an app/vendor name and a valid contact email, or requests may be blocked.
