Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Upwork GraphQL API to your agent

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

Call POST /graphql to execute a graphql query

Data Retrieval and Monitoring

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

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Upwork GraphQL 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 oauth2 tokens manually.

Search Jentic for 'execute a graphql query', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Key Endpoints

Why Jentic?

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

Setup

Wiring the Upwork GraphQL API by hand means running its OAuth2 flow, refreshing tokens, and building GraphQL query and mutation payloads for the single /graphql endpoint yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import Upwork from the API Directory, store the credential once, and your agent calls it.

Permission scoping

Upwork exposes one /graphql endpoint whose action lives in the query body, so limit the agent to the GraphQL operations it needs, such as read queries. You choose that operation set, so mutations are not included unless you add them.

Credential isolation

Your Upwork OAuth2 credential 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 'run a GraphQL query for job data', and Jentic returns the matching Upwork operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using Upwork GraphQL API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Upwork GraphQL API use?

The Upwork GraphQL API uses OAuth 2.0 for authorization. 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 execute a graphql query with the Upwork GraphQL API?

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

What are the rate limits for the Upwork GraphQL 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 execute a graphql query through Jentic?

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

How many endpoints does the Upwork GraphQL API have?

The Upwork GraphQL API exposes 1 endpoints covering graphql, jobs, freelancers operations.
