21
-
You should see a new collection (`Dotkernel_API`) added to your collection list, containing the documentation of all Dotkernel API endpoints.
- Navigate to the [documentation](/documentation) directory.
21
+
- Select **both**[Dotkernel_API.postman_collection.json](/documentation/Dotkernel_API.postman_collection.json) and [Dotkernel_API.postman_environment.json](/documentation/Dotkernel_API.postman_environment.json).
22
+
- Click **Import**.
22
23
23
-
Also, you should see a new environment (`Dotkernel_API`) added to your environments.
24
-
This contains a variable, called `APPLICATION_URL` set to `http://0.0.0.0:8080`.
25
-
If your application runs on a different URL/port, modify this variable accordingly.

#### For Bruno using the Bruno Export Zip
25

26
+
- Open the `My Workspace` dropdown and select `Import workspace`.
27

28
+
- Click the `Import` button.
29
+
30
+
#### For Bruno using Postman Files
31
+
32
+
> Bruno also supports the Postman files we used for the Postman import.
33
+
> If you have already imported the collection using the `.zip` file, you can skip this step.
34
+
35
+
**Alternatively** import the collection by following these steps:
36
+
37
+
- Click on `+` next to `Collection` and select `Import Collection`.
38
+
- Import [Dotkernel_API.postman_collection.json](/documentation/Dotkernel_API.postman_collection.json) to save the endpoints.
39
+
- Select the new collection, then click on `0 collection environments`.
40
+
- Either click-and-drag the [Dotkernel_API.postman_environment.json](/documentation/Dotkernel_API.postman_environment.json) file over the form or navigate to it via the `Import your environments` link to save it to the collection.
41
+
42
+
### Collection Contents
43
+
44
+
If the import process completed successfully, you should have:
45
+
46
+
- A new collection (`Dotkernel_API`) containing the documentation of all Dotkernel API endpoints.
47
+
- A new environment (`Dotkernel_API`) with the Application URL and OAuth2 tokens (empty by default, then overwritten by the API client).
48
+
49
+
> The environment contains a variable, called `APPLICATION_URL` set to `http://api.dotkernel.localhost` by default.
50
+
> If your application runs on a different URL/port (virtualhost), modify this variable accordingly.

## Usage
28
53
29
-
Dotkernel API Endpoints are secured with OAuth2, this means that calling an endpoint requires an access token being sent via the `Authorization` header (edit collection root directory and look under `Authorization` tab).
30
-
31
-
### Add a new request
32
-
33
-
* right-click on the parent directory you want to create the request inside, then click **Add Request**
34
-
* enter name and description for your request
35
-
* select the proper request method:
36
-
***DELETE**: if you are deleting an item
37
-
***GET**: if you are viewing an item or a list of items
38
-
***PATCH**: if you are (partially) updating an item
39
-
***PUT**: depending on if it exists or not, update or create an item
40
-
***POST**: if you are creating an item
41
-
* if needed, add query parameters (`Params` tab)
42
-
* enter request URL (eg: `{{APPLICATION_URL}}/example`): you can use the existing `APPLICATION_URL` environment variable by placing it between double curly braces
43
-
* select body (`Body` tab) format based on the data your endpoint expects:
44
-
* use **none** if no data will be sent to this endpoint
45
-
* use **form-data** if besides form data, this endpoint accepts file attachments as well
46
-
* use **raw** (also, set Content-Type to **JSON**) for creating/updating items
47
-
48
-
New requests added to the collection will not require adding the `Authorization` header because by default it is inherited from parent directories (under `Authorization` tab: `Type` is set to `Inherit auth from parent`).
49
-
If your request should be accessible by guest users, you need to set `Type` to `No Auth`.
54
+
Dotkernel API Endpoints are secured with OAuth2.
55
+
Calling an endpoint must include an access token sent via the `Authorization` header (see the `Authorization` or `Auth` tab in the collection).
56
+
57
+
### Add a new request (endpoint)
58
+
59
+
- Right-click on the parent directory you want to create the request inside, then click `Add Request` (or `New Request`).
60
+
- Enter the request name and the description, if available.
61
+
- Select the request method:
62
+
-`DELETE` if you are deleting an item.
63
+
-`GET` if you are viewing an item or a list of items.
64
+
-`PATCH` if you are (partially) updating an item.
65
+
-`PUT` depending on if it exists or not, update or create an item.
66
+
-`POST` if you are creating an item.
67
+
- Enter request URL (eg: `{{APPLICATION_URL}}/example`): you can use the existing `APPLICATION_URL` environment variable by placing it between double curly braces.
68
+
- If needed, add query parameters (`Params` tab).
69
+
- Select body (`Body` tab) format based on the data your endpoint expects:
70
+
- Use `none` or `no body` if no data will be sent to this endpoint.
71
+
- Use `form-data` or `Multipart Form` if besides form data, this endpoint accepts file attachments as well.
72
+
- Use `raw`, then `JSON` for creating/updating items in a JSON format.
73
+
- Click `Send` to send the request.
74
+
75
+
The `Authorization` header will be included automatically for new requests (under `Authorization` tab: `Type` is set to `Inherit auth from parent`).
76
+
If your request needs to be public (accessible by guest users), you need to set `Type` to `No Auth`.
