The affixapi.com API documentation.
Affix API is an OAuth 2.1 application that allows developers to access customer data, without developers needing to manage or maintain integrations; or collect login credentials or API keys from users for these third party systems.
Affix API follows the OAuth 2.1 spec.
As an OAuth application, Affix API handles not only both the collection of sensitive user credentials or API keys, but also builds and maintains the integrations with the providers, so you don't have to.
in order to get started, you must:
- register a
client_id
- direct your user to the sign in flow (
https://connect.affixapi.com
with the appropriate query parameters) - capture
authorization_code
we will send to your redirect URI after the sign in flow is complete and exchange thatauthorization_code
for a Bearer token

We support brotli
, gzip
, and deflate
compression algorithms.
To enable, pass the Accept-Encoding
header with one or all of the values:
br
, gzip
, deflate
, or identity
(no compression)
In the response, you will receive the Content-Encoding
response header
indicating the compression algorithm used in the data payload to enable you
to decompress the result. If the Accept-Encoding: identity
header was
passed, no Content-Encoding
response header is sent back, as no
compression algorithm was used.
An exciting feature for HR/Payroll modes are webhooks.
If enabled, your webhook_uri
is set on your client_id
for the
respective environment: dev | prod
Webhooks are configured to make live requests to the underlying integration
1x/hr, and if a difference is detected since the last request, we will send a
request to your webhook_uri
with this shape:
{

}
the following headers will be sent with webhook requests:
x-affix-api-signature: ab8474e609db95d5df3adc39ea3add7a7544bd215c5c520a30a650ae93a2fba7
x-affix-api-origin: webhooks-employees-webhook
user-agent: affixapi.com
Before trusting the payload, you should sign the payload and verify the
signature matches the signature sent by the affixapi.com
service.
This secures that the data sent to your webhook_uri
is from the
affixapi.com
server.
The signature is created by combining the signing secret (your
client_secret
) with the body of the request sent using a standard
HMAC-SHA256 keyed hash.
The signature can be created via:
- create an
HMAC
with yourclient_secret
- update the
HMAC
with the payload - get the hex digest -> this is the signature
Sample typescript
code that follows this recipe:
import { createHmac } from 'crypto';
export const computeSignature = ({
str,
signingSecret,
}: {
signingSecret: string;
str: string;
}): string => {
const hmac = createHmac('sha256', signingSecret);
hmac.update(str);
const signature = hmac.digest('hex');
return signature;
};
While verifying the Affix API signature header should be your primary method of confirming validity, you can also whitelist our outbound webhook static IP addresses.

Open endpoints (not gated by an API key) (applied at endpoint level):
- 15 requests every 1 minute (by IP address)
- 25 requests every 5 minutes (by IP address)
Gated endpoints (require an API key) (applied at endpoint level):
- 40 requests every 1 minute (by IP address)
- 40 requests every 5 minutes (by
client_id
)
Things to keep in mind:
- Open endpoints (not gated by an API key) will likely be called by your users, not you, so rate limits generally would not apply to you.
- As a developer, rate limits are applied at the endpoint granularity.
- For example, say the rate limits below are 10 requests per minute by ip.
from that same ip, within 1 minute, you get:
- 10 requests per minute on
/orders
, - another 10 requests per minute on
/items
, - and another 10 requests per minute on
/identity
, - for a total of 30 requests per minute.
- 10 requests per minute on
- For example, say the rate limits below are 10 requests per minute by ip.
from that same ip, within 1 minute, you get:
This API client was generated by the OpenAPI Generator project. By using the OpenAPI-spec from a remote server, you can easily generate an API client.
- API version: 2023-03-01
- Package version: 1.0.0
- Build package: org.openapitools.codegen.languages.GoClientCodegen
Install the following dependencies:
go get github.com/stretchr/testify/assert
go get golang.org/x/oauth2
go get golang.org/x/net/context
Put the package under your project folder and add the following in import:
import sw "./openapi"
To use a proxy, set the environment variable HTTP_PROXY
:
os.Setenv("HTTP_PROXY", "http://proxy_name:proxy_port")
Default configuration comes with Servers
field that contains server objects as defined in the OpenAPI specification.
For using other server than the one defined on index 0 set context value sw.ContextServerIndex
of type int
.
ctx := context.WithValue(context.Background(), sw.ContextServerIndex, 1)
Templated server URL is formatted using default variables from configuration or from context value sw.ContextServerVariables
of type map[string]string
.
ctx := context.WithValue(context.Background(), sw.ContextServerVariables, map[string]string{
"basePath": "v2",
})
Note, enum values are always validated and all unused variables are silently ignored.
Each operation can use different server URL defined using OperationServers
map in the Configuration
.
An operation is uniquely identifield by "{classname}Service.{nickname}"
string.
Similar rules for overriding default operation server index and variables applies by using sw.ContextOperationServerIndices
and sw.ContextOperationServerVariables
context maps.
ctx := context.WithValue(context.Background(), sw.ContextOperationServerIndices, map[string]int{
"{classname}Service.{nickname}": 2,
})
ctx = context.WithValue(context.Background(), sw.ContextOperationServerVariables, map[string]map[string]string{
"{classname}Service.{nickname}": {
"port": "8443",
},
})

Due to the fact that model structure members are all pointers, this package contains a number of utility functions to easily obtain pointers to values of basic types. Each of these functions takes a value of the given basic type and returns a pointer to it:
PtrBool
PtrInt
PtrInt32
PtrInt64
PtrFloat
PtrFloat32
PtrFloat64
PtrString
