Why though Jentic?

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

Credential isolation

Sumsub API apiKey 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., 'api health') and Jentic returns the matching Sumsub API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.

Time to first call

Direct Sumsub 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 Sumsub API API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Sumsub API use?

The Sumsub API uses an API key passed in the `X-App-Token` 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 api health with the Sumsub API?

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

What are the rate limits for the Sumsub 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 api health through Jentic?

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