API Reference

The Leap backend exposes a REST API. The API uses JSON for requests and responses. The frontend consumes this API.

Base URL

The API lives under /api. In development, the frontend proxy forwards /api/* to the backend at localhost:9000.

Authentication

The API uses JWT tokens.

• POST /api/auth/login returns an access token and a refresh cookie.
• The access token is short-lived. It is kept in memory.
• The refresh token lives in an HttpOnly cookie.
• POST /api/auth/refresh issues a new access token.
• POST /api/auth/logout invalidates the refresh token.

Cookie-authenticated requests need a CSRF token. Login and refresh endpoints are rate-limited.

Response format

A success response has this shape:

{ "data": { ... }, "error": null, "meta": { "page": 1, "per_page": 20, "total": 150 } }

An error response has this shape:

{ "data": null, "error": { "code": "FORBIDDEN", "message": "Insufficient permissions" } }

The meta object carries pagination information.

Permissions

Most routes require a permission. The middleware checks the permission before the handler runs, and a request without it returns FORBIDDEN. The org-setting reads and the self-service auth routes are open to every signed-in user. The Features page lists every permission.
