Ragic API Authentication
How to authenticate Ragic API requests: one Bearer API key plus a connectionId. MindCloud stores your Ragic API key securely — set it once, never resend it.
Every Ragic API request through MindCloud needs two things: a MindCloud API Key and a connectionId for your Ragic account. This page covers both, plus exactly how to send them, so you do not need to visit any other page to get authenticated.
Steps to authenticate
- Create a MindCloud account at app.mindcloud.co if you do not already have one.
- Generate a MindCloud API Key in API Keys. This is the Bearer token you send on every request. Keep it on your server.
- Create a Ragic connection in Connections. Ragic uses an API key. You generate the key in your Ragic account, then paste it in when you create the connection — MindCloud stores it securely and never returns it in a response.
- Copy the connection’s
connectionId— you will send it on every request alongside your MindCloud API Key.
How requests are authenticated
Authentication has two layers. Your MindCloud API Key authenticates the request to MindCloud, sent as a Bearer token in the Authorization header. The connectionId selects the connected Ragic account that should run the action. MindCloud stores and refreshes the Ragic credentials behind that connection, so you never send provider tokens with your requests.
Pass connectionId in the query string for GET and DELETE actions, and in the JSON body for POST, PUT, and PATCH actions.
For example, calling List Records with an Ragic connection looks like this:
curl --request POST \
--url "https://connect.mindcloud.co/v2/universal/apps/ragic/actions/list-records/run" \
--header "Authorization: Bearer $MINDCLOUD_API_KEY" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--data '{
"connectionId": "$CONNECTION_ID",
"arguments": {}
}'The Authorization: Bearer <your MindCloud API Key> header authenticates you to MindCloud; the connectionId tells MindCloud which Ragic account to run the action against. Missing or invalid Authorization returns 401, and a missing or mismatched connectionId returns 400.
Connect Ragic
You need access to the target Ragic workspace and permission to open Personal Settings.
- Sign in to the correct Ragic workspace
Open the Ragic workspace you want MindCloud to use and make sure the URL is for the right regional server.
- Generate an API key
Open Personal Settings in Ragic and generate a new API key for the user or service account that MindCloud should use.
- Copy the server URL
Copy only the protocol and hostname from the workspace URL, such as https://na5.ragic.com.
- Copy the account name
Copy the first path segment after the hostname from the workspace URL, such as sims.
- Enter the connection values in MindCloud
Paste the API key into the API Key field, then enter the server URL and account name you copied from the workspace URL.
Keep your key safe
Keep your MindCloud API Key on your server; do not ship it in browser code, mobile apps, public repositories, or logs. Anyone with the key can call the Universal API as your MindCloud account, across every connection you have created.
