★ Identity and Authentication Operations

Use the Product Hunt API to perform identity auth operations programmatically. The API provides 4 endpoints covering core functionality including execute graphql query or mutation, obtain an oauth access token, authorize a user via oauth.

Call POST /api/graphql to execute graphql query or mutation

Automated Authentication Management

Automate authentication operations by combining multiple Product Hunt API endpoints. Agents can obtain an oauth access token and then authorize a user via oauth in a single workflow.

Call POST /oauth/token to obtain an oauth access token, then verify the result

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Product Hunt 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 'execute graphql query or mutation', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why though Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Product Hunt 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., 'execute graphql query or mutation') and Jentic returns the matching Product Hunt API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.

Time to first call

Direct Product Hunt API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs

Specific to using Product Hunt API API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Product Hunt API use?

The Product Hunt 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 execute graphql query or mutation with the Product Hunt API?

Yes. Use the POST /api/graphql endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

What are the rate limits for the Product Hunt 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 execute graphql query or mutation through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'execute graphql query or mutation'. Jentic returns the matching Product Hunt API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the Product Hunt API have?

The Product Hunt API exposes 4 endpoints covering authentication, graphql operations.
