Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Tadabase 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%2Ftadabase.io%2Ftadabase" | 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%2Ftadabase.io%2Ftadabase" | 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 Tadabase API.
Check API Status
List All Tables
Create Record
Get Record
Update Record
Patterns agents use Tadabase API for, with concrete tasks.
GET STARTED
★ Developer Tools Operations
Use the Tadabase API to perform developer tools operations programmatically. The API provides 8 endpoints covering core functionality including check API status, list all tables, list table fields.
Call GET /status to check API status
Automated Records Management
Automate records operations by combining multiple Tadabase API endpoints. Agents can list all tables and then list table fields in a single workflow.
Call GET /data-tables to list all tables, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Tadabase 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.
Search Jentic for 'check API status', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring the Tadabase API by hand means sending its TadabaseAuth header on every call and threading table and record ids through nested data-table routes yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Tadabase API from the API Directory, store the key once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
Tadabase puts the table id and record id in the URL path (/data-tables/{tableId}/records/{recordId}), so a rule can pin your agent to one table's records: it can read them and nothing else. You choose the operations it may call, so updating or deleting a record is not included unless you add it.
Credential isolation
Your Tadabase 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.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'list records in a table' or 'check API status', and Jentic returns the matching Tadabase operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Specific to using Tadabase API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Tadabase API use?
The Tadabase API uses an API key passed in the `TadabaseAuth` 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 check API status with the Tadabase API?
Yes. Use the GET /status endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Tadabase 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 check API status through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'check API status'. Jentic returns the matching Tadabase API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Tadabase API have?
The Tadabase API exposes 8 endpoints covering records, status, tables operations.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Tadabase API?
Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which Tadabase operations and credentials the agent may use. Since Tadabase puts the table id and record id in the URL path (/data-tables/{tableId}/records/{recordId}), a rule can pin the agent to one table's records so it only reads them. You pick the operations it may call, so creating, updating, or deleting a record stays off limits unless you add it.
For Agents
Programmatically check API status, list all tables. Covers 8 operations with apiKey authentication.
Use for: I need to check API status, I want to all tables, Search for table fields, Find all record
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm - use for developer tools only.
Tadabase REST API for viewing tables, fields and manipulating records. Industry standard REST API for no-code database applications. The API exposes 8 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.
