Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the They Said So Quotes API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the They Said So Quotes 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%2Fquotes.rest%2Fquotes-rest" | sh

Step 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%2Fquotes.rest%2Fquotes-rest" | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic 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.

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call They Said So Quotes 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 'they said so quotes API', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.

Setup

Wiring the They Said So Quotes API by hand means learning its bearer auth, targeting the quotes.rest host, and handling retries across its quote operations yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import They Said So Quotes from the API Directory, store the token once, and your agent calls it.

Permission scoping

The They Said So Quotes API drives its reads through request parameters rather than resource ids in the path, so limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as fetching a quote of the day. You choose which operations are allowed, so the agent reaches only what you list.

Credential isolation

Your They Said So token is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'get the quote of the day' or 'find quotes by category', and Jentic returns the matching They Said So Quotes operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using They Said So Quotes API through Jentic.

What authentication does the They Said So Quotes API use?

The They Said So Quotes API uses a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

What are the rate limits for the They Said So Quotes 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 use they said so quotes API through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'use they said so quotes API'. Jentic returns the matching They Said So Quotes API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the They Said So Quotes API have?

The They Said So Quotes API exposes 45 endpoints covering quote of the day, private qod, quote operations.

What data format does the They Said So Quotes API return?

The They Said So Quotes API returns responses in JSON format. All endpoints accept and return structured JSON, making it straightforward for AI agents to parse and process the data programmatically.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the They Said So Quotes API?

Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which They Said So Quotes operations and credentials the agent can use. This API drives its reads through request parameters rather than resource ids in the path, so you list only the operations the agent needs, such as fetching the quote of the day or pulling a random quote, and leave out the private quote-of-the-day, private quotes, and quote-image operations. The agent then reaches only the endpoints you allow, and your stored bearer token is injected at execution time without entering the agent context.
