Testsigma API - Overview

Testsigma has a set of REST API Endpoints to manage the entities available in Testsigma. The most common usage of these endpoints is within your CI/CD Pipeline.

A fair understanding of REST APIs is expected. If not, please refer to some relevant resources regarding REST API or consult with your dev team before proceeding further.

Authorization

All Testsigma API Endpoints require authentication. The user authenticates the request using Bearer Token which is the user’s API Key.

“Authentication” : “Bearer <API_Key>”

To know more about generating and obtaining API Keys, refer to the documentation on generating API keys

Get IDs of Projects, Applications and Uploads

Testsigma has a set of endpoints to retrieve IDs of projects, applications, and uploads using APIs. This article discusses getting these IDs by using APIs.

Get IDs using Postman API

1. From My Workspace, go to APIs and click on ‘+’ to open a new request.
2. From the new request page, select GET from the method dropdown.

3. On the URL Textbox,

   • Enter https://app.testsigma.com/api/v1/projects to get project IDs.
   • Enter https://app.testsigma.com/api/v1/applications to get application IDs.
   • Enter https://app.testsigma.com/api/v1/uploads to get upload IDs.

Let’s use the first URL & retrieve the IDs of projects.

4. Click on Authorization, select Authorization type and enter the Token.
5. Click on Send to retrieve details of all projects.
6. You’ll find IDs of all projects in the response body.

Follow the same steps from 4-6 with the other URLs mentioned in step 3 to get details of applications and uploads.

Here’s a quick GIF demonstrating how to retrieve IDs of projects, applications, and uploads using APIs in Postman.
