For Agents

Programmatically process json data using jq filter. Covers 1 operations with bearer authentication.

Use for: I need to process json data using jq filter, Find available data enrichment operations, Get the current status of JQ API resources, List all records from JQ API

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the JQ API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the JQ 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%2Fthejqapi.com%2Fthejqapi" | sh

Step 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%2Fthejqapi.com%2Fthejqapi" | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic 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.

★ Data Enrichment Operations

Use the JQ API to perform data enrichment operations programmatically. The API provides 1 endpoints covering core functionality including process json data using jq filter.

Call POST /process to process json data using jq filter

Data Retrieval and Monitoring

Query JQ 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 JQ API endpoint, compare response to last known state, and alert if changed

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call JQ 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 bearer tokens manually.

Search Jentic for 'process json data using jq filter', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.

Setup

Wiring the JQ API by hand means learning its bearer auth against thejqapi.com and posting your data and jq filter to its single processing endpoint yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the JQ API from the API Directory, store the token once, and your agent calls it.

Permission scoping

The JQ API exposes a single processing operation at /process, so you limit the agent to just that operation and nothing else. Because that is the only call you grant, the agent can transform JSON with a jq filter but cannot reach any other functionality.

Credential isolation

Your JQ API token 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 'process JSON data using a jq filter', and Jentic returns the matching JQ API operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using JQ API through Jentic.

What authentication does the JQ API use?

The JQ API uses a Bearer token in the Authorization 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 process json data using jq filter with the JQ API?

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

What are the rate limits for the JQ 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 process json data using jq filter through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'process json data using jq filter'. Jentic returns the matching JQ API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the JQ API have?

The JQ API exposes 1 endpoints covering processing operations.
