MethodPOST

Body:

json
{
	"username": "shiori",
	"password": "gopher",
	"remember": true,
	"owner": true
}

It will return your session ID in a JSON:

json
{
    "session": "YOUR_SESSION_ID",
    "account": {
        "id": 1,
        "username": "shiori",
        "owner": true
    }
}

Log out

Log out of a session ID.

Request infoValue
Endpoint/api/logout
MethodPOST
X-Session-Id HeadersessionId

Bookmarks

Get bookmarks

Gets the last 30 bookmarks (last page).

Request infoValue
Endpoint/api/bookmarks
MethodGET
X-Session-Id HeadersessionId

Returns:

json
{
    "bookmarks": [
        {
            "id": 825,
            "url": "https://interesting_cool_article.com",
            "title": "Cool Interesting Article",
            "excerpt": "An interesting and cool article indeed!",
            "author": "",
            "public": 0,
            "modified": "2020-12-06 00:00:00",

                    "name": "TAG"
                }
            ],
            "createArchive": false
        },
    ],
    "maxPage": 19,
    "page": 1
}

Add bookmark

Add a bookmark. For some reason, Shiori ignores the provided title and excerpt, and instead fetches them automatically. Note the tag format, a regular JSON list will result in an error.

Request infoValue

MethodPOST

Body:

json
{
	"url": "https://interesting_cool_article.com",
	"createArchive": true,
	"public": 1,

	"title": "Cool Interesting Article",
	"excerpt": "An interesting and cool article indeed!"
}

Returns:

json
{
    "id": 827,
    "url": "https://interesting_cool_article.com",
    "title": "TITLE",
    "excerpt": "EXCERPT",
    "author": "AUTHOR",
    "public": 1,
    "modified": "DATE",
    "html": "HTML",
    "imageURL": "/bookmark/827/thumb",
    "hasContent": false,
    "hasArchive": true,
    "tags": [
        {
             "name": "Interesting"
        },
        {
             "name": "Cool"
        }
    ],
    "createArchive": true
}
