Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the ArtLedger 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%2Fswaggerhub.valenceapi%2Fartledger-api" | shStep 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%2Fswaggerhub.valenceapi%2Fartledger-api" | 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 ArtLedger API.
Import artwork CSV file
List imported artworks
Integrate ArtLedger API into automated workflows
Query and filter ArtLedger API records by parameters
Monitor ArtLedger API operational status and events
GET STARTED
Patterns agents use ArtLedger API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Finance and Accounting Operations
Use the ArtLedger API to perform finance operations programmatically. The API provides 2 endpoints covering core functionality including import artwork csv file, list imported artworks.
Call POST /artwork/import to import artwork csv file
Data Retrieval and Monitoring
Query ArtLedger API resources on a schedule to track changes, generate alerts, or feed downstream dashboards. Agents poll relevant endpoints, compare against previous state, and trigger actions when thresholds are crossed.
Poll the primary ArtLedger API endpoint, compare response to last known state, and alert if changed
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call ArtLedger 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 none tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'import artwork csv file', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring the ArtLedger API by hand means coding its artwork import and listing calls against its AWS us-east-1 host and handling its open (no-auth) access yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the ArtLedger API from the API Directory, store any needed config once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
The ArtLedger API targets artwork through the request body and query, not a resource in the URL path, so limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as listing artwork with GET /artwork. You choose the operations it may call, so importing artwork with POST /artwork/import is not included unless you add it.
Credential isolation
This API requires no credential, and any config your setup needs 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 'import an artwork CSV file' or 'list stored artwork', and Jentic returns the matching ArtLedger API operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Specific to using ArtLedger API through Jentic.
What authentication does the ArtLedger API use?
The ArtLedger API uses no authentication. 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 import artwork csv file with the ArtLedger API?
Yes. Use the POST /artwork/import endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the ArtLedger 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 import artwork csv file through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'import artwork csv file'. Jentic returns the matching ArtLedger API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the ArtLedger API have?
The ArtLedger API exposes 2 endpoints covering artwork operations.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the ArtLedger API?
Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, you decide which ArtLedger API operations your agent may call, so you can grant read-only access to GET /artwork for listing stored artwork while withholding POST /artwork/import. The agent only gets an operation when you add it, so it cannot import a new artwork CSV file unless you explicitly allow that call. Since ArtLedger targets artwork through the request body and query rather than a path resource, you control access at the operation level under your own rules.
