Base URL

Send every API request to your own Blink tenant’s host:
For example, if you log in to Blink at https://a1234.app.blinkops.com, your base URL is https://a1234.app.blinkops.com/api/v1. You can find your tenant name in your browser’s address bar when you’re logged in to Blink.
Don’t send requests to app.blinkops.com without your tenant name in front of it, or to another tenant’s host. The request returns 401 Unauthorized, even with a valid API key, because the key belongs to your tenant.
The code samples on each endpoint page use <your-tenant> as a placeholder. Before using Try it, enter your tenant name in the tenant server field.
