# Taxamo

Taxamo’s elegant suite of APIs and comprehensive reporting dashboard enables digital merchants to easily comply with EU regulatory requirements on tax calculation, evidence collection, tax return creation and data storage. The API exposes 36 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.

## For AI agents

Programmatically countries, currencies. Covers 36 operations with apiKey authentication.

## Scope

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

## Capabilities

- Countries
- Currencies
- Product types
- Locate IP
- Calculate domestic summary

## Use cases

### Analytics Operations

Use the Taxamo to perform analytics operations programmatically. The API provides 36 endpoints covering core functionality including countries, currencies, product types.

Example prompt: Call GET `/api/v1/dictionaries/countries` to countries

### Automated dictionaries Management

Automate dictionaries operations by combining multiple Taxamo endpoints. Agents can currencies and then product types in a single workflow.

Example prompt: Call GET `/api/v1/dictionaries/currencies` to currencies, then verify the result

### AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Taxamo 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 'countries', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

## Why Jentic

- **Setup:** Wiring Taxamo by hand means sending its Token header on every request, targeting the api.taxamo.com host, and building your own retry handling across its dictionary and report endpoints. Through Jentic you install once, import Taxamo from the API Directory, store the API key once, and your agent calls it.
- **Permission scoping:** Taxamo's listed operations are read-only lookups and reports, and most take their target as query parameters while `/geoip/{ip}` carries the ip in the path. Limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as reading country dictionaries or a domestic summary report. You choose what it may call, and these endpoints only read data, so nothing that changes state is included.
- **Credential handling:** Your Taxamo 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 'list supported countries' or 'get a domestic tax summary', and Jentic returns the matching Taxamo operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

## FAQ

### What authentication does the Taxamo use?

The Taxamo uses an API key passed in the `Token` 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 countries with the Taxamo?

Yes. Use the GET `/api/v1/dictionaries/countries` endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

### What are the rate limits for the Taxamo?

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 countries through Jentic?

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

### How many endpoints does the Taxamo have?

The Taxamo exposes 36 endpoints covering dictionaries, geoip, invoices operations.

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

Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, you decide which Taxamo operations and credentials the agent can use, so you can allow only the ones a task needs, such as reading the country and currency dictionaries or pulling a domestic summary report. Every listed Taxamo operation is a read-only lookup or report, with targets passed as query parameters and the IP for `/geoip/{ip}` carried in the path, so nothing the agent calls changes state. You can restrict it to a single endpoint like GET `/api/v1/reports/domestic/summary` and leave the rest off limits.
