Bloomcount Public API

REST API for partners and integrations.

Authentication

All endpoints require an Authorization: Bearer bloomcount_... header. Keys are issued from Settings → API in the app and are scoped — a key without products:write cannot create products, etc.

Bulk endpoints

Create / update endpoints accept arrays so a single request can cover up to 500 items. Per-row failures are reported in the errors array rather than failing the whole call.

Idempotency

POST endpoints honour Idempotency-Key. A replay with the same key returns the cached response verbatim; the underlying mutation runs once. Cache TTL is 24 hours, scoped to the API key.

Rate limits & quotas

  • Per-key rate limit: 60 requests / minute. Exceeding returns 429 rate_limited.
  • Per-tenant monthly cap: configured per plan (default unlimited via the override). Exceeding returns 429 monthly_limit_exceeded.

IDs

IDs are resource-prefixed strings — the prefix tells you what kind of resource the ID refers to. Treat the part after the underscore as opaque (do not parse), but you can rely on the prefix.

Prefix Resource
prod_ Product
var_ Product variant
sup_ Supplier
pl_ Price list
pe_ Price entry
tax_ Tax group
evt_ Event
evtgrp_ Event group
evti_ Event item (line)
whsub_ Webhook subscription

Passing the wrong kind of ID (e.g. a var_… where a prod_… is expected) returns 422 wrong_id_type:expected_<table>_got_<table> so the mistake is self-describing. Mismatched / malformed IDs return 422 invalid_id_format or 422 invalid_id_prefix:<prefix>.

Tax Groups

Products

Suppliers

The suppliers that products and per-variant prices can be assigned to. An integration needs a supplier ID before it can write per-supplier prices or per-(variant, supplier) minimum order quantities (MOQ), so it can create its own here rather than waiting for someone to add them in the app. The hidden Default supplier and archived rows aren’t listed.

Suppliers archive rather than delete, because products keep referencing their IDs. Archiving relinks anything left without a supplier to the hidden Default.

Price Lists

Events

Webhook subscriptions

Manage which URLs receive event deliveries.

Venues

Where events happen. An event references a venue by ID, and the driving distance from your own address is worked out in the background.

Staff

The people who work events, with their rates.

Colours

The colour vocabulary. A variant’s colors and an event’s colourScheme are matched by label, not by ID, so listing these is how you learn which labels will match. Renaming one retags everything that used the old label.

Categories

The category vocabulary. A product’s category is matched by label, so listing these is how you learn which labels will match. Renaming one retags every product that carried the old label.
