Overview

The Pyrus API offers applications the ability to access the tasks and projects of a particular user. The objective of this documentation is to provide developers a guide toward the implementation of the Pyrus API with third-party services in a secure manner. To get started, you must first do the following:

1. Register the application at Pyrus and get an Client ID and a Secret Key. Those ID's are needed to get AccessToken(access_token), which is required for secure invocation of Pyrus API methods.

2. Users of your application must be Pyrus registered users.

Once you have registered, you can access any methods available on our API.

Authorization

Pyrus API uses OAuth 2.0 protocol for authentication and authorization. Requests should be made over a secure connection SSL(https://).

Every method requested requires:

  • Client ID which identifies your application.
  • AccessToken(access_token), used to verify and authenticate the request.

Pyrus supports two types of authorization:

As a result of authorization process, your application will get AccessToken(access_token), which should be used for each invocation of Pyrus API's methods. AccessToken(access_token) is limited by the time and could be revoked by an user. In this case you should authorize your application again.

Application registration

After application being registered you'll receive Client ID and Client Secret. Those ID's are needed to get AccessToken(access_token), which is required for secure invocation of Pyrus API methods.

Please log in to edit OAuth registration.

Get Task

Retrieving a task is implemented with the GetTask method. GetTask accepts Task Identifier, and returns an object containingTaskWithNotes structure.

URL https://pyrus.com/restapi/v3/task/{taskid} is used as REST endpoint with the http method GET. {taskid} -Task Identifier.

Example

GET https://pyrus.com/restapi/v3/task/1024
Header Authorization: Bearer gAAAAA15vmSeoj*******

Methods

After successful authentication, the following methods are available via a secured protocol (HTTPS):

  • Get Task
  • Get Task List
  • Get All Tasks
  • Create Task
  • Create Comment
  • Get Profile
  • Get Contacts

All methods are only available using https channel and placed on https://pyrus.com.

The API supports REST.

Content-Type Header

Pyrus API uses JSON as a data format so Content-Type of each request must be specified with "application/json".

Authorization Header

Each request must contain an authorization header based on OAuth v2 specifications.

Compression

All requests are compressed using standard gzip and deflation algorithms. It is highly recommended to use this option when transmitting large amounts of data.

Data Formats

The API uses the following standard data types:

  • String
  • Integer
  • Bit Flag
  • DateTime
  • Array
  • Enumeration
  • Structures

DateType is serialized in JSON format as a string: "/Date(1198908717056)/", which is a UNIX TIMESTAMP. For XML serialization, the ISO 8601 standard is used. XML date value is always in UTC. For example: "2012-04-10T09:08:07Z". Milliseconds in dates are ignored.

Enumerations are serialized as string types, whose values lie within a fixed range. One of the fixed values can be the default, and therefore skipped from the request or response body.

Below is description of commonly used structures.

Structure Person describes person and has the following properties:

    • Id: person identifier;
    • FirstName: person first name, can be empty;
    • LastName: person last name;
    • Email: person email;
    • CanSendNotification: can send message;
    • PersonsInRole: List of Persons in role;

Structure Project describes project and has the following properties:

    • Id: project identifier;
    • Name: project name;
    • Parent: parent project, if the current project is root then it`s parent is empty;

Error Handling

If an error occurs, the API will return a corresponding HTTP Status Code. In addition, the server will provide further information inside string fields such Code and Description. For REST requests, the server returns a JSON Error structure with the described fields.

Below is an example of an error response.

REST

Response Headers
Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Response Body
{ "ApiException" : { "Code" : "BadFormat", "Message" : "Some error text" } }

String field Code represents error code. Codes are grouped by these means: BadFormat - format errors, Authorization - authorization errors, Behavioral - access errors. Each method can return their own errors which are described in corresponding method sections. Below is the list of common errors:

400 Invalid request:

  • BadFormat: Invalid argument of invoked method. Make sure, that all values, used as arguments for method invocation, have valid type;
  • BadFormatInteger: Invalid value in parameter of integer type. Make sure you are sending integer value as a method parameter;
  • BadFormatDate: Invalid value in date- parameter. Make sure, that the value you put as date- parameter (e.g. <b>DueDate</b> in <b>CreateTask</b> method), has proper format;

401 No authorization:

  • AuthorizationError: Authorization error. Make sure that you've performed authorization process;
  • AuthorizationErrorInvalidToken: Invalid authorization token. Receive new token by performing appropriate procedure for web application or background process;
  • AuthorizationErrorRevokedToken: Authorization token has been revoked. Receive new token by performing appropriate procedure for web application or background process;
  • AuthorizationErrorExpiredToken: Authorization token has been expired. Receive new token by performing appropriate procedure for web application or background process;
  • AuthorizationErrorTokenNotSpecified: Authorization token not specified. In order to invoke Pyrus API's methods, you need to specify AccessToken(access_token) received during authorization;

403 Access denied:

  • UnspecifiedAccessDenied: Access is denied. Сheck if user, that is making an edition of the task, has rights to do it;

Get Task List

There are two ways to get a task list: Get Inbox Task List and Search Tasks.

Get Inbox Task List

You can retrieve tasks from an Inbox using the GetInbox method. GetInbox accepts the MaximumItemsCount(default: 50) parameter, the maximum number of tasks to return. The GetInbox method returns the TaskList structure.

URL https://pyrus.com/restapi/inbox is used as REST endpoint with the http method GET.

Upload File

The Pyrus API allows you to attach files to tasks. It is implemented in two steps:

  • Upload a single file to the server and get its unique identifier of the type string.
  • Specify a unique identifier in the AttachmentIds property of AddTaskParams or AddCommentParams as appropriate.

Use the https://pyrus.com/restapi/upload endpoint with the http method POST to upload a file to the server. It returns an UploadedFile structure, which contains only one property of the type string: UploadedFileId, the unique identifier of an uploaded file. Don`t forget to insert an Authorization HTTP Header as in every other request.

Content-Type header

Content-Type header of an upload request must be set to multipart/form-data; boundary=8d2f42366b41441. Boundary is a group of symbols that preceds and follows body of a file. Content-Length header must be specified as well.

Example

POST https://pyrus.com/restapi/upload
Authorization: Bearer gAAA*****
Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=8d2f42366b41441
Host: pyrus.com
Content-Length: 5222
--8d2f42366b41441
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="filename.jpg"
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
// put your file data here
--8d2f42366b41441--

One File Per Request

Upload only one file for each request. If you need to upload more than one file, you should call the upload endpoint several times.

Unique Identifiers

Do not use a structure unique identifier twice. The second attempt will fail.

Aside from authorization and format errors, the method can return the following custom error codes:

403 Access denied:

  • BehavioralMaxContentLengthExceeded: Maximum content length exceeded. Size of attachment for non-premium accounts must be less than 5Mb;

Authorization for web application

You should implement OAuth 2.0 protocol, so user of your web-application be able to use Pyrus. This type of authorization is most secured. Using this kind of authorization user will send his password through secured channel directly to Pyrus service.

Make following steps for implementation:

  • 1. Register your application, afterwards you'll get your Client ID.

  • 2. Implement a code that will redirect user to https://pyrus.com/oauth with Client ID parameter. On that page user will see form to log into Pyrus. Afterwards user will be redirected to your web-application with code.

  • 3. Request access_token from Pyrus using code.

  • Now you can use access_token for API methods invocation. When token's time-limit will be exceeded or token will be revoked, you'll get 401 Bad Authorization error. In this case you should make authorization once again (step 2).

How to get access_token?

You have to make several steps, to get access_token and be able to invoke API's method in a name of a Pyrus' user:

1. Redirect user's browser to https://pyrus.com/oauth. Request must contain redirect_uri with an address of access_token receiver. If user isn't logged in yet, he will be advised to log into Pyrus. Also, user have to grant access to his documents in Pyrus.

2. Our server will redirect user to the chosen Url. In case of success, parameter code will contain access code. In case of error, it's description could be found in error parameter.

If your app works not in a web-browser, set redirect_uri to nowebserver. In this case, instead of redirecting to redirect_uri, server will put code parameter in the title and body of response-page .

3. Make POST-request to https://pyrus.com/oauthtoken, you'll get access_token in response. Request should also contain:

  • client_id: your Client ID
  • client_secret: your Client Secret
  • grant_type: authorization_code
  • redirect_uri: value of redirect_uri, used on step 1
  • code: code received on step 2

Example

1. Request code:

https://pyrus.com/oauth?client_id=CLIENT_ID&redirect_uri=REDIRECT-URI&response_type=code

REDIRECT-URI must be URL- encoded.

2. Receive it:

http://your-redirect-uri?code=CODE

3. Request access_token:

curl \
-F 'client_id=CLIENT-ID' \
-F 'client_secret=CLIENT-SECRET' \
-F 'grant_type=authorization_code' \
-F 'redirect_uri=YOUR-REDIRECT-URI' \
-F 'code=CODE' \
https://pyrus.com/oauthtoken

4. Receive it:

{
"access_token": "fb2e77d.47a0479900504cb3ab4a1f626d174d2d"
}

Authorization for background process

Perform following steps to implement this kind of authorization:

  • 1. Register your application, afterwards you'll get your Client ID.

  • 2. Receive security key in Settings → Authorized Applications. If you still do not have a security key, click on the button Get new security key. Security key is needed to perform authorization of applications that has no GUI and cannot show a form to enter login and password.

  • 3. Get AccessToken.

How to get AccessToken?

Invoke service method called GetToken which takes GetTokenParams structure as a parameter. It will respond with access_token. This method does not need Authorization http header.

Url https://pyrus.com/restapi/getaccesstoken is used as REST endpoint with the http method POST.

Example

POST https://pyrus.com/restapi/getaccesstoken

Request Body

{
    "Login": "bill.smith@somedomain.edu",
    "SecurityKey": "******",
    "ClientId": "1234abcd-1234-abcd-1234-abcd1234abcd"
}

Response Body

{
    "AccessToken": "gAAAAA15vmSeoj*******"
}

Aside from authorization and format errors, the method can return the following custom error codes:

401 No authorization:

  • AuthorizationErrorInvalidLoginOrSecurityKey: Invalid login or security key. Make sure, that you are using valid login and security key to receive AccessToken(access_token) for background process;
  • AuthorizationErrorInvalidClientId: Invalid Client ID specified. Make sure that you are using valid Client ID received with registration;

Structure GetTokenParams describes access token request properties and has the following properties:

    • Login: user login;
    • SecurityKey: user security key;
    • ClientId: application identifier (client_id);
    • PersonId: person identifier;

Authorization for background process

Perform following steps to implement this kind of authorization:

  • 1. Register your application, afterwards you'll get your Client ID.

  • 2. Receive security key in Settings → Authorized Applications. If you still do not have a security key, click on the button Get new security key. Security key is needed to perform authorization of applications that has no GUI and cannot show a form to enter login and password.
