Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the GP247 API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fgp247.net%2Fgp247" | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fgp247.net%2Fgp247" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with GP247 API.
Authenticate a storefront customer via POST /front/login and receive a bearer token
Authenticate an administrator via POST /core/login for back-office operations
Combine apiconnection and apikey headers with bearer auth on subsequent requests
Bootstrap session tokens for an agent that will then call other GP247 endpoints
Support multi-tenant routing through the {domain} placeholder in the base URL
GET STARTED
Patterns agents use GP247 API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Storefront Customer Authentication
An agent acting on behalf of a shopper logs in to a GP247 storefront with email and password to receive a bearer token. The token, paired with the store's apiconnection and apikey headers, then gates customer-scoped operations once the rest of the GP247 surface is exposed. The published spec only covers the login step, so non-authentication operations require separate documentation from the store operator.
POST /front/login with the customer's email and password and store the returned bearer token for subsequent requests.
Admin Console Authentication
Back-office tooling and merchant agents authenticate via POST /core/login to obtain an admin bearer token. The admin token is separate from customer tokens and grants access to back-office operations once additional endpoints are wired into the agent. Tokens should be rotated and stored encrypted, especially for multi-tenant deployments where the {domain} differs per store.
POST /core/login with admin credentials and cache the returned token under the {domain} key for that store.
Multi-Tenant Bootstrap for Store Networks
Operators running a network of GP247 stores under different domains use the {domain} placeholder in the base URL to route login calls to the correct tenant. An agent reads the customer's store from a routing table, fills the placeholder, and calls /front/login or /core/login. Cross-store sessions are not supported - each domain issues its own token.
Render the base URL https://{domain}/api with domain=shop.example.com and POST /front/login to authenticate a customer at that tenant.
Agent-Assisted Login via Jentic
An AI assistant integrating a merchant's GP247 store can use Jentic to discover the login operations, load their schemas, and execute against the merchant's domain. Jentic stores the apiconnection and apikey credentials in your Jentic One instance and injects them at call time, so the agent only handles the user-supplied email and password.
Use the Jentic SDK to search 'log in to a gp247 storefront', load /front/login, and execute with the user's email and password against the configured domain.

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring the GP247 API by hand means resolving the per-merchant domain host, assembling its three-part credential set of bearer token plus apiconnection and apikey headers, and choosing between the storefront and admin login routes yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import GP247 from the API Directory, store the credentials once per domain, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
GP247's login routes take their inputs in the request body rather than a resource id in the path, so limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as the storefront /front/login or the admin /core/login. You choose the operations it may call, so the agent cannot reach anything you have not included.
Credential isolation
Your GP247 apiconnection and apikey headers are stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, with the bearer token returned by login persisted the same way. They never enter the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'log in to a gp247 storefront', and Jentic returns /front/login or /core/login with the matching schema so the agent picks the right endpoint by role rather than reading the API docs.

Specific to using GP247 API through Jentic.
What authentication does the GP247 API use?
GP247 uses three security schemes that are combined: an HTTP Bearer token (issued by /front/login or /core/login) plus an apiconnection header and an apikey header. The apiconnection and apikey are issued by the store operator and identify the calling integration. Through Jentic, all three credentials are stored in your Jentic One instance and injected together at execution time.
What is the difference between /front/login and /core/login?
POST /front/login authenticates storefront customers - typical end-user accounts. POST /core/login authenticates administrators with access to back-office operations. The two endpoints issue different bearer tokens and an admin token cannot be substituted for a customer token, or vice versa.
What are the rate limits for the GP247 API?
The OpenAPI spec does not declare rate limits. Because GP247 is self-hosted, limits depend on the store operator's web server configuration. Treat login as a relatively expensive call and cache the resulting bearer token until it expires rather than re-authenticating per request.
How do I log in to a GP247 store through Jentic?
Search Jentic for 'log in to a gp247 storefront', load POST /front/login, and execute with the customer's email and password. The Jentic SDK injects the apiconnection and apikey headers from the vault and returns the bearer token as part of the response payload.
Why does the base URL contain a {domain} placeholder?
GP247 is multi-tenant - each store runs at its own domain. The base URL https://{domain}/api must have {domain} replaced with the merchant's actual host (for example, shop.example.com) before any call is made. Different domains issue different bearer tokens and apikey pairs.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the GP247 API?
Yes. Because you self-host Jentic One, your own rules decide which GP247 operations and credentials the agent may use, so you can restrict it to just the storefront POST /front/login or the admin POST /core/login instead of both. Since these login routes take their inputs in the request body rather than a resource id in the path, you scope access by choosing which operations to include. The agent cannot reach any endpoint you have not granted, and the apiconnection and apikey headers it needs stay under your control.
For Agents
Authenticate against a GP247 e-commerce store as a customer or admin and obtain the bearer token used for downstream storefront and admin operations.
Use for: Log in to a GP247 storefront as a customer to start a session, Authenticate as a GP247 admin to manage orders, Get a bearer token for a GP247 store API call, Set up authenticated access to an S-Cart based store
Not supported: Does not handle product catalog, orders, payments, or shipping operations - use for GP247 customer and admin authentication only.
GP247 (formerly known as S-Cart) is an open-source PHP e-commerce platform. The API exposes login operations for both the storefront (front) and admin (core) sides of a GP247 installation, and is the entry point for token-issuing flows that gate the rest of the platform's REST surface. Authentication combines a bearer token with an apiconnection and apikey header pair, reflecting GP247's multi-tenant deployment model where each store runs at its own {domain}.
