For Agents
Exchange credentials for an access token, list Domo resources, and fetch a specific resource by ID using an Authorization header API key.
Get started with Domo API in minutes using your preferred integration method.
# Add to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf)
{
"jentic": {
"url": "https://api.jentic.com/mcp",
"auth": "oauth"
}
}
# Then ask your agent:
"list domo resources"
# → Jentic returns the GET /events tool with parameter schema, agent executes.What an agent can do with Domo API API.
Obtain an access token via POST /auth/token
List available Domo resources with GET /resources
Fetch a single resource by ID via GET /resources/{id}
Authenticate every call with an Authorization header API key
Inspect resource metadata to drive downstream analytics jobs
GET STARTED
Use for: Get an access token for the Domo API, List all resources in my Domo instance, Fetch a Domo resource by its ID, Check whether a specific Domo resource exists
Not supported: Does not handle dataset row-level CRUD, dashboard rendering, or user provisioning — use for token exchange and resource metadata listing only.
The Domo API exposes the cloud business intelligence platform's resource model through a REST interface. The curated specification covers three core operations: token exchange via POST /auth/token, listing available resources, and fetching a single resource by ID. Authentication uses an Authorization header API key. The API supports analytics workflows that read dataset, dashboard, or other resource metadata for downstream automation or governance reporting, and is intended as an entry point to the broader Domo developer surface.
Patterns agents use Domo API API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Resource Inventory and Governance
Build a governance report by calling GET /resources and walking each entry with GET /resources/{id} to capture metadata. This supports audits, dataset cleanup, and access-review jobs that need a current picture of what exists in the Domo instance without querying the underlying datasets.
POST /auth/token to get an access token, GET /resources, then GET /resources/{id} for each entry and write the names and IDs to a CSV.
Token Lifecycle Management
Automate token refresh by calling POST /auth/token whenever the current access token nears expiry. Storing the refreshed token in a secrets manager keeps long-running BI automations alive without manual intervention from the Domo administrator.
Schedule a job that calls POST /auth/token every 50 minutes and updates the stored token in the secret manager.
AI Agent Analytics Lookup via Jentic
An AI agent uses Jentic to look up Domo resources on demand: it searches for an analytics intent, loads GET /resources, executes it, and pipes the IDs back to a user or another tool. The Domo API key stays in the Jentic vault, so the agent never holds the credential while iterating over the resource list.
Search Jentic for 'list domo resources', execute GET /resources, and return the first 10 results to the user with their IDs.
3 endpoints — the domo api exposes the cloud business intelligence platform's resource model through a rest interface.
METHOD
PATH
DESCRIPTION
/auth/token
Exchange credentials for an access token
/resources
List available resources
/resources/{id}
Get a single resource by ID
/auth/token
Exchange credentials for an access token
/resources
List available resources
/resources/{id}
Get a single resource by ID
Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
Domo API keys and minted tokens are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault. Agents receive a scoped reference and Jentic builds the Authorization header at execution time, so /auth/token and /resources calls never expose raw secrets.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic for intents like 'list domo resources' or 'get a domo access token' and receive the matching operation with its parameter schema, ready to execute without consulting the spec.
Time to first call
Direct integration: half a day for token lifecycle and pagination. Through Jentic: under 30 minutes from search to first authenticated call.

Specific to using Domo API API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Domo API use?
The spec defines an Authorization header API key (ApiKeyAuth). Tokens are minted by POST /auth/token and passed in subsequent requests. Through Jentic, both the static key and minted tokens are stored encrypted in the vault and injected at execution time.
Can I list resources with the Domo API?
Yes. GET /resources returns the available resources for the authenticated client, and GET /resources/{id} fetches details for a specific resource by ID.
What are the rate limits for the Domo API?
The OpenAPI spec does not declare explicit rate limits. Domo's broader developer documentation specifies per-endpoint limits, so apply exponential backoff on 429 responses and avoid burst patterns when iterating GET /resources.
How do I get an access token through the Domo API via Jentic?
Run pip install jentic and search for 'get a domo access token'. Jentic returns POST /auth/token; execute it with the stored client credentials and Jentic stores the resulting token for downstream calls so the agent never handles the secret.
Can I fetch a specific Domo resource?
Yes. GET /resources/{id} returns the metadata for the resource with the given ID. Use GET /resources first to discover IDs if you do not already have them.
Is the Domo API free to use?
Access requires a Domo subscription. The API is included with Domo plans rather than priced per call, but quota and capability depend on the plan. Check your Domo admin console for the limits that apply to your tenant.
