Differences for Mattermost Boards

The auto-generated Swagger API documentation is for Focalboard Personal Server. If you are calling the API on Mattermost Boards, the additional changes are:

API URLs endpoint

The API endpoint is at https://SERVERNAME/plugins/focalboard/api/, e.g. https://community.mattermost.com/plugins/focalboard/api/.

Use the Mattermost auth token

Refer to the Mattermost API documentation here on how to obtain the auth token.

Pass this token as a bearer token to the Boards APIs, e.g.

curl -i -H "X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest" -H 'Authorization: Bearer abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz' https://community.mattermost.com/plugins/focalboard/api/v1/workspaces

Note that the X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest header is required to pass the CSRF check.
