SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? It enables direct interaction with the Inngest REST API v2 for endpoints and operations that the Inngest CLI does not expose, including raw HTTP requests, OpenAPI spec lookup, and API authentication handling. ## Core Features & Use Cases - API Reference Lookup: Fetches current documentation from api-docs.inngest.com, llms.txt, and the OpenAPI v2 spec to derive exact request shapes instead of guessing. - Authenticated Raw Requests: Builds curl or fetch calls with Bearer token authentication, environment targeting via X-Inngest-Env headers, and pagination cursor handling. - Safe Mutations: Enforces read-before-write confirmation for side-effecting operations like creating environments, webhooks, app syncs, and function invocations. - Use Case: When you need to create a webhook or invoke a function through an endpoint the CLI lacks, this Skill looks up the OpenAPI schema, constructs the correct authenticated request, and redacts secrets from the output. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to use the Inngest REST API v2 to list environments or invoke a function with your INNGEST_API_KEY.

FAQPage Schema
How do I authenticate requests to the Inngest REST API v2?▼

Inngest REST API v2 authentication uses a Bearer token in the Authorization header, typically an API key stored as INNGEST_API_KEY. For non-production Cloud environments, add the X-Inngest-Env header or use an environment-scoped API key.

How do I find the request shape for an Inngest API endpoint?▼

Fetch the OpenAPI v2 spec at https://api-docs.inngest.com/api-specs/v2.json as the source of truth for methods, paths, parameters, and schemas. You can also append .md to any docs page URL or check the llms.txt index for markdown references.

When should I use the Inngest REST API instead of the Inngest CLI?▼

Use the raw REST API only when the CLI does not expose the needed endpoint or when you explicitly need HTTP, curl, fetch, or OpenAPI details. The CLI is preferred for run debugging, account checks, and Insights workflows because it handles auth and target flags.

Does the Inngest API v2 support pagination for list endpoints?▼

Yes, list responses include a page object with cursor, hasMore, and limit fields. Pass the cursor as a query parameter and keep fetching until hasMore is false to retrieve complete results.

What is the base URL for the Inngest local dev server API?▼

The local dev server v2 API is available at http://localhost:8288/api/v2 and requires no authentication key. Confirm the actual dev server port before making local requests, and use https://api.inngest.com/v2 for Cloud.

What operations are not available in the Inngest API v2?▼

Some operations like listing events, cancelling runs, bulk cancellations, and webhook updates still live in the v1 API at https://api.inngest.com/v1 with signing-key auth. Check the v1 docs before declaring an operation impossible.
