ABIS API FUNDAMENTALS

Integrate behavioural intelligence layers via REST API

5 Modules
3 Hours
Foundation Level
01
Authentication

Identity Vectors

Security is not a feature; it is the first layer of intelligence. Before the system predicts behavior, it must verify intent.

Topics Covered
  • OAuth2 Client Credentials Flow
  • Static API Keys
  • Token refresh with 5-minute buffer
  • Automatic token management

Request Anatomy

The First Signal

A request is a contract. The structure you send, the headers you include, and the endpoint you target tell ABIS exactly what you need.

Topics Covered
  • Required fields: user_id, session_id, event_type, timestamp
  • Payload schema validation
  • Header construction
  • Request ID generation

03
JSON Structures

Response Decoding

When ABIS speaks, it speaks in JSON. Every field carries intelligence. Every nested object reveals patterns. Master the schema, and you master the system.

Topics Covered
  • Response schema validation
  • Risk assessment parsing
  • Behavioral indicator extraction
  • Anomaly details parsing
  • Human-readable summaries

Error Handling

Failure Resilience

In production, things fail. The difference between a robust integration and a broken system is how you handle failure. ABIS errors aren't problems—they're signals.

Topics Covered
  • Error classification (retry vs. no-retry)
  • Exponential backoff with jitter
  • Circuit breaker pattern
  • HTTP status code handling
  • Network error recovery

Key Management

Key Lifecycle

Your API key is the skeleton key to your behavioral intelligence system. Managing keys isn't just about keeping them secret—it's about rotation, access control, monitoring, and graceful transitions.

Topics Covered
  • Cryptographically secure key generation
  • Key rotation with grace periods
  • Immediate revocation
  • Expiry monitoring
  • Audit logging

  • Request payload construction and validation
  • Response parsing and risk assessment
  • Production-grade error handling
  • Enterprise key lifecycle management

Prerequisites

  • Basic understanding of REST APIs
  • Familiarity with JavaScript/TypeScript
  • Knowledge of HTTP protocols
  • Understanding of authentication concepts
