For Agents
Programmatically download app, get app. Covers 11 operations with bearer authentication.
Use for: I need to download app, I want to app, Search for project apps, Find all asset
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm — use for hr and recruiting only.
REST API for PlayCanvas, a web-based 3D game engine. Manage apps, assets, branches, scenes, checkpoints, jobs, and project exports. The API exposes 11 endpoints secured with bearer authentication.
Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the PlayCanvas 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://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | 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 PlayCanvas API.

Patterns agents use PlayCanvas API for, with concrete tasks.
★ HR and Recruiting Operations
Use the PlayCanvas API to perform hr recruiting operations programmatically. The API provides 11 endpoints covering core functionality including download app, get app, get project apps.
Call POST /apps/download to download app
Automated Apps Management
Automate apps operations by combining multiple PlayCanvas API endpoints. Agents can get app and then get project apps in a single workflow.
Call GET /apps/{id} to get app, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call PlayCanvas API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle bearer tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'download app', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
PlayCanvas API bearer credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'download app') and Jentic returns the matching PlayCanvas API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.
Time to first call
Direct PlayCanvas API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

Specific to using PlayCanvas API through Jentic.
What authentication does the PlayCanvas API use?
The PlayCanvas API uses a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I download app with the PlayCanvas API?
Yes. Use the POST /apps/download endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the PlayCanvas API?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I download app through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'download app'. Jentic returns the matching PlayCanvas API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the PlayCanvas API have?
The PlayCanvas API exposes 11 endpoints covering apps, assets, jobs operations.
