For most people, our CLI and Go SDK will be the easiest way to start working with Private Apps. However, if you prefer writing in another language, you can use this API to build your own community SDK or integration with Tempest.

Our official Go SDK is powered by this API under the hood.

Authentication

You’ll need to generate an API key to authenticate your requests to the Tempest API.

About the Tempest API

The Tempest API is a simple RPC-style HTTP API that allows your Private Apps to interact with your Tempest account. You can use it to:

  • Connect your app implementation to Tempest automation
  • Dequeue new jobs from Tempest automation
  • Report the health and status of your app to Tempest
  • Report the status of a job you dequeued
