Basta provides two GraphQL APIs, each serving distinct roles within your integration:
API | Description | Access Type |
Management API | Administrative API for managing auctions, inventory, pricing, … | Server-side, Authenticated |
Client API | Public-facing API for surfacing auctions and enabling client-side interactions (read and write) | Public + JWT Auth |
🔐 Authentication:
- The Management API requires static API credentials (see API Access →)
- The Client API accepts either unauthenticated requests or bidder-scoped JWT tokens in the
Authorization
header
