API Documentation
REST API and Webhooks
Overview 
Copilot was designed platform-first which means that for most resources — clients, companies, messages, etc. — there are associated API endpoints and webhooks. These let you set up your own custom workflows and can be used in Custom Apps. Our API documentation is the best place to get started with our API.
Copilot API
Copilot's public API is organized around REST. Our API has predicated resource-oriented URLs, accepts JSON request bodies and returns JSON-encoded responses, and uses standard HTTP response codes and verbs. You can generate your API key on the Settings > API page.
Webhooks
Webhooks can be created on the Settings > API page.
Rate Limits
The API is limited to 20 requests per second, 2000 requests per day. If you exceed this rate, you will receive a 429 status code. Subsequent requests will succeed after one second.
