Nylas
Nylas connects your application to every email inbox and calendar in the world. The Nylas v3 platform provides REST APIs for email, calendar, contacts, scheduling, meeting notetaking, authentication, and administration across Google, Microsoft, Exchange, iCloud, Yahoo and any IMAP provider. Official SDKs cover Node.js, Python, Ruby and Kotlin/Java, alongside a CLI, a hosted MCP server, and Agent Accounts that provision a Nylas-hosted mailbox and calendar for autonomous agents without requiring an OAuth flow.
Nylas publishes 13 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Admin API, Auth API, Calendars API, and 10 more. Tagged areas include Calendar, Communications, Contacts, Email, and Messaging.
Nylas’ developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, API reference, getting-started guide, CLI, support, and 41 more developer resources.

provider_published: true
summary: The artifacts in this repository were authored by Nylas and submitted as api-evangelist/nylas#1, then verified
by API Evangelist against live URLs before merge. The contract registered below is Nylas' own published document, harvested
verbatim.
submitted_by:
name: Nick Barraclough
role: Developer documentation, Nylas
pull_request: https://github.com/api-evangelist/nylas/pull/1
api_evangelist_changes:
- Harvested the published contract from https://developer.nylas.com/_spec-files/nylas-api.yaml to openapi/_original/nylas-api-openapi.yml
(sha256 7ff001d571e163b1ffe22178741b59f813d8208ec878157a839a33dc2c13fd35) and split it into the 13 domain specs the provider's
own entries name. The PR pointed all fourteen entries at the remote URL, which would have left every local spec unregistered
and deleted on the next rebuild, and left a 1.67 MB contract to be read through a 32 KB embedded-source cap.
- Quarantined eleven API Evangelist scaffolds to openapi/_scaffold/ and stamped each one. They were derived from reading
developer.nylas.com/docs/ and said so in their own info.description, but carried no provenance marker, so the rubric had
been crediting 22 modelled operations at full first-party weight while the provider's real 208-operation contract went
uncounted. The provider identified this from the outside.
- Hoisted `servers:` above `info:` in every emitted document. Semantically inert -- a YAML mapping is unordered -- but Nylas'
info.description is a single ~20 KB line carrying an embedded Postman payload, which pushed the servers block past the
24 KB head window the provenance indexer reads. All thirteen splits registered as no_servers until this.
verified:
date: '2026-08-21'
contract: OpenAPI 3.1.0, 118 paths, 208 operations, 174 component schemas, 100% of operations carrying summary, description,
tag and a unique operationId, x-code-samples on 208 of 208. Counted from the harvested document, not from the submission.
also_confirmed: 'All five .well-known paths, both MCP endpoints (401, live and auth-gated), all published rate limits,
and the trust-center compliance list. The provider''s disclosed negatives were confirmed as negatives: no A2A protocolVersion
on the agent card, no webhooks object, and Idempotency-Key on exactly 2 of 95 mutating operations.'
