The Athennian API makes it easy to integrate your entity data into other applications or systems. Use this guide to get started sharing your data across systems.
Easy to access. Easy to modify.
The Athennian API is a GraphQL Internet protocol built around making semantically meaningful HTTPS requests to access or modify a resource (usually done by an employee). The API can be used to manipulate entity data and to generate reports in several formats.
GraphQL provides the flexibility to request exactly what is needed and nothing more. Construct a request by defining the resources you want via a POST request and receive a response that matches the format of your request.
GraphQL offers a more efficient, flexible integration. With GraphQL you can specify exactly what data you care about and retrieve as much or as little as needed, all through a single endpoint.
We make it easy for you to test API calls in our Sandbox environment.

What does the Athennian API support?
Here’s a high-level view of everything v1 handles:
- Fetch all the entities within your team,
- Query to fetch specific entities within your team, and

With an Athennian API Key, you will have administrator level access to your data across the team linked to the key.
