# SlideSpeak API

API for generating, editing, and managing AI-powered presentations. Supports text-to-presentation, document-based generation, templates, and webhooks. The API exposes 13 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.

## For AI agents

Programmatically get user info, check task status. Covers 13 operations with apiKey authentication.

## Scope

Does not handle payments, communications, or developer tools - use for crm only.

## Capabilities

- Get user info
- Check task status
- Download presentation
- List default templates
- Upload document
- Generate presentation

## Use cases

### CRM Operations

Use the SlideSpeak API to perform crm operations programmatically. The API provides 13 endpoints covering core functionality including get user info, check task status, download presentation.

Example prompt: Call GET /me to get user info

### Automated Documents Management

Automate documents operations by combining multiple SlideSpeak API endpoints. Agents can check task status and then download presentation in a single workflow.

Example prompt: Call GET `/task_status/{task_id}` to check task status, then verify the result

### AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call SlideSpeak 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 apiKey tokens manually.

Example prompt: Search Jentic for 'get user info', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

## Why Jentic

- **Setup:** Wiring the SlideSpeak API by hand means sending your key in the X-API-Key header to api.slidespeak.co/api/v1 and polling task status for asynchronous presentation generation yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import SlideSpeak from the API Directory, store the API key once, and your agent calls it.
- **Permission scoping:** SlideSpeak puts the task id and presentation id in the URL path (`/task_status/{task_id}` and `/presentations/{id}/download`), so a rule can pin your agent to specific task and presentation reads. You choose the operations it may call, so generation operations are not included unless you add them.
- **Credential handling:** Your SlideSpeak API key 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.
- **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'generate a presentation' or 'check task status', and Jentic returns the matching SlideSpeak operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

## FAQ

### What authentication does the SlideSpeak API use?

The SlideSpeak API uses an API key passed in the `X-API-Key` 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.

### Can I get user info with the SlideSpeak API?

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

### What are the rate limits for the SlideSpeak 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 get user info through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'get user info'. Jentic returns the matching SlideSpeak API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

### How many endpoints does the SlideSpeak API have?

The SlideSpeak API exposes 13 endpoints covering documents, presentations, tasks operations.

### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the SlideSpeak API?

Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which SlideSpeak operations and credentials the agent may use. SlideSpeak puts the task id and presentation id in the URL path, such as GET `/task_status/{task_id}` and GET `/presentations/{id}/download`, so you can pin the agent to specific task and presentation reads. You choose the operations it can call, so write actions like POST `/presentation/generate` or POST `/document/upload` stay off unless you add them.
