API reference
Changelog
Every change to the Lanoo API, newest first. A version is named by the date it was released.
- APIDocs
Rate limits
Each account may send up to 100 requests a second with a live key, and 25 with a test key. Over the limit, a request fails with HTTP 429 and
rate_limited. Tell us if you need more. - APIDocs
Change, test and re-key webhook endpoints
A webhook endpoint can now be changed, with a new URL or other events, without removing it. It can send a
pingtest event, so you can see your server receive one. And it can get a new secret: the old one stops at once, or in 24 hours, with every event signed with both until then. - Docs
Test staging areas
Test staging areas, the ones a
lk_test_key works on, are made up. No vehicles stand in them, and they are your account's alone. They work just as real ones do. - APIDocs
Staying without a limit
A staging area's owner can now let vehicles stay as long as they like, as at a lot where they wait out the night. There
rules.max_stay_minutesis null, and so is a checked-in reservation'sleave_by, unless a closure of its spot is planned.Where there is a limit, a vehicle past it still gets one
reservation.overstayedevent. What follows is for the owner to decide. - Docs
Getting started, step by step
Getting started is now four pages: getting an API key, your first request, your first reservation, and going live. Anyone can sign up for a test key; a live key comes once we have approved your company.
- APIDocs
Planned and sudden closures
A staging area now lists the closures its owner has planned, in
closures, for some spots or all of them. Nobody is asked to leave for one:leave_bynever runs past its start.A sudden closure, by the police or for a fire, sends every vehicle away. A checked-in vehicle gets the new
reservation.must_leaveevent, with others nearby with room. - APIDocs
The first API docs
The first version of the API docs, written down before it is built: staging areas, availability, reservations and webhooks. Nothing can be called yet.
