# Mako API Integration Guide

The Mako Provisioning API (henceforth "Mako API") provides the ability for partners to securely automate the creation of new Makos, Companies and Users. This documentation describes the Mako API and how to use it within your systems for greater integration with the Mako CMS.

For more detailed information on Mako API endpoints refer to Mako API Specification, which contains a list of endpoints, data models, sample requests and responses.

Client implementations in Python and Java are also available as a reference.

## Prerequisites

Before using Mako API, you should have obtained API URL and credentials (client id and client secret) from Mako Networks. From now on, the URLs will be given in relative form to the base URL you received. You should be familiar with REST/JSON style API concepts.

## Authentication

Mako API authentication follows the standard OAuth 2.0 Bearer Token flow. To obtain an authentication token, perform a `POST to '/mako-api/auth/v1/auth' setting `client_id` and `client_secret` as form params:

POST /mako-api/auth/v1/auth?client_id=myclid&client_secret=mysecret

    Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8

Response [200 OK]

    {
      "access_token" : "YUMCABQAqX2cqBjSiFht",
      "token_type" : "Bearer",
      "expires_in" : 14400
    }

If you provide invalid credentials, you will get the following error response:

Response [401 Unauthorized]

    {
      "error" : "invalid_client"
    }

Next, when making a request to a protected resource (i.e. everything except `/auth` endpoint), include the bearer token in `Authorization` header:

GET /mako-api/config/v1/getCompany/

    Authorization: Bearer YUMCABQAqX2cqBjSiFht

Make sure you re-authenticate and obtain a new token before the old one expires.

If there is any problem with the authentication token (missing, invalid, expired, etc.), you will get the following error:

Response [401 Unauthorized]

    {
      "error" : "invalid_token"
    }

If your IP/Subnet is not authorized to access Mako API, you will get the following error:

Response [401 Unauthorized]

    {
      "status" : "FAILED",
      "error" : {
        "errorCode" : "unauthorizedSource",
        "message" : "Unauthorized source"
      }
    }

## Response envelope

Most Mako API responses are wrapped in a response envelope.[1] For example, when retrieving single mako information, the response will be the following:

GET /mako-api/config/v1/getMako/708680cf-07c5-4618-94be-3b12ddb92d84

Response [200 OK]

    {
      "status" : "OK",
      "body" : {
        "id" : "708680cf-07c5-4618-94be-3b12ddb92d84",
        "companyId" : "aa326232-c5f2-479e-8768-15430929497a",
        "name" : "LON 6500 M/LTE",
        "companyName" : "Some Company",
        "identification" : "11:11:11:22:33:44"
      }
    }

If the request was successful, the `body` field will contain the actual data of interest, such as Mako data, etc. In case of an error, you will receive a response similar to a one below:

Request

    POST /mako-api/config/v1/addMako

Response [200 OK]

    {
      "status" : "FAILED",
      "error" : {
        "errorCode" : "noDataFound",
        "message" : "Mako model not found"
      }
    }

Note that an erroneous response has an `error` field instead of `body`, where error code and message can be found. In case of e.g. validation errors, there might be more information returned in `errorDetails` field:

Response [200 OK]

    {
      "status" : "FAILED",
      "error" : {
        "errorCode" : "invalidData",
        "message" : "Invalid data supplied",
        "errorDetails" : {
          "violations" : [ {
            "path" : "mako.phoneNumber",
            "message" : "must not be null"
          }, {
            "path" : "mako.address.address1",
            "message" : "must not be null"
          }, {
            "path" : "mako.name",
            "message" : "must not be null"
          } ]
        }
      }
    }

To recap, in order to confirm that the request was successful, verify both HTTP status code to be 200, and the `status` field to be `OK`.

## Rate limiting

A per-user rate limit of 100 requests/sec is applied to all authenticated endpoints. The requests are counted per (user, endpoint), i.e. one user can perform max 100 requests/s to e.g. `GET /mako-api/v1/config/getMako` endpoint. If you exceed the rate limit, you will get the following response:

Response: [429 Too Many Requests]

    {
      "status" : "FAILED",
      "error" : {
        "errorCode" : "rateLimitExceeded",
        "message" : "Rate limit exceeded"
      }
    }

## Quotas

In addition to rate limiting, your requests are subject to daily quotas. Currently, quotas are applied to endpoints that create entities, e.g. `POST /mako-api/config/v1/addMako` etc., and you are limited to 10,0000 such requests per user per day. Should you exceed the quota limit, you will receive the following response:

Response [429 Too Many Requests]

    {
      "status" : "FAILED",
      "error" : {
        "errorCode" : "quotaLimitExceeded",
        "message" : "Quota limit exceeded"
      }
    }

Quota counters are reset every day at midnight (UTC).

## Error handling

This section contains typical errors you can encounter when working with Mako API - some of them were already mentioned in the previous sections.

When checking if the request was successful, make sure HTTP status is `200 OK` and wrapped response `status` field is `OK` (unless it’s `/auth` endpoint). Many errors (e.g. validation errors, invalid data, etc.) are returned with `200 OK` HTTP status code, so you have to account for that.

Some more high-level errors (e.g. method not allowed) do not return JSON, so your code should handle this. Below is the list of errors:

Error type | Status | Response | Comment
--- | --- | --- | ---

Invalid credentials

401

    {
      "error" : "invalid_client"
    }

## Example workflow

Here’s an example workflow that demonstrates how to add a new company, and how to add a person, and a Mako for the newly created company. (authentication and HTTP status codes omitted for brevity)

First, let’s create a new company. You need to know the UUID of the parent company under which the new company will be created. (you may retrieve the list of companies using `/listCompanies` endpoint)

POST /mako-api/config/v1/addCompany

    {
      "parentCompanyId" : "5f10c94d-af26-479f-a705-aa2a85d778ea",
      "companyType" : "RESELLER",
      "name" : "Acme",
      "address" : {
        "address1" : "3205  Sycamore Fork Road",
        "suburb" : "Suburb",
        "city" : "Fort Lauderdale",
        "state" : "Florida",
        "postOrZipCode" : "33308",
        "country" : "US"
      },
      "phoneNumber" : "9542177110",
      "supportEmail" : "test3@makonetworks.com",
      "salesEmail" : "test2@makonetworks.com",
      "generalEmail" : "test1@makonetworks.com"
    }

Response [200 OK]

    {
      "status" : "OK",
      "body" : {
        "id" : "e18ceab1-9071-41cc-a6dd-1e5bc2d5d962",
        "name" : "Acme"
      }
    }

The response contains the unique id of the newly created company. Use this id to refer to the company in your future requests.

Now, we’re going to add a new person to the newly created company:

POST /mako-api/config/v1/addPerson

    {
      "companyId" : "f8a3ae1a-967a-4032-a053-e012cfe34537",
      "userType" : "Full Reseller",
      "templateScope" : "COMPANY_NO_INHERIT",
      "firstName" : "Jane",
      "lastName" : "Smith",
      "username" : "acmereseller12",
      "email" : "acmeresseler1@makonetworks.com",
      "allowLogin" : true,
      "address" : {
        "address1" : "1355",
        "address2" : "N McLean Blvd",
        "city" : "Elgin",
        "state" : "Illinois",
        "postOrZipCode" : "60123",
        "country" : "US",
        "timezone" : "America/Chicago"
      },
      "phoneNumber" : "123423423"
    }

Response [200 OK]

    {
      "status" : "OK",
      "body" : {
        "id" : "f2034c04-be11-43b0-b39c-2535cd273661",
        "firstName" : "Jane",
        "lastName" : "Smith",
        "username" : "acmereseller12",
        "email" : "acmeresseler1@makonetworks.com"
      }
    }

Again, note the returned `id` for the created person.

Finally, let’s add a Mako to the newly created company:

POST /mako-api/config/v1/addMako

    {
      "companyId" : "f8a3ae1a-967a-4032-a053-e012cfe34537",
      "name" : "Test Mako",
      "address" : {
        "address1" : "1355",
        "address2" : "N McLean Blvd",
        "suburb" : "Suburb",
        "city" : "Elgin",
        "state" : "Illinois",
        "postOrZipCode" : "60123",
        "country" : "US",
        "timezone" : "America/Chicago",
        "latitude" : 42.06,
        "longitude" : -88.31
      },
      "phoneNumber" : "+18008514690",
      "faxNumber" : "+18008514691",
      "makoModel" : "Mako 6500-M"
    }

Response [200 OK]

    {
      "status" : "OK",
      "body" : {
        "id" : "7db65f69-ed6e-4b23-bf3f-2063b41ccdd1",
        "companyId" : "f8a3ae1a-967a-4032-a053-e012cfe34537",
        "name" : "Test Mako",
        "companyName" : "Acme3",
        "identification" : "MAKO-ID-HERE-5721-1587738483248"
      }
    }

When creating a Mako, a Mako model (hardware name), you can provide identification (Mac address), or you can create a mako using template (another Mako). Refer to API specification for details.
