## Overview
|
||||||
If you're not looking to build API reference documentation, you can delete
|
|
||||||
this section by removing the api-reference folder.
|
|
||||||
</Note>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Welcome
|
The Trading Analysis Dashboard exposes a RESTful API for accessing trading data, portfolio holdings, and performance metrics programmatically. The API powers the web interface and can be used to build custom integrations or automation tools.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
There are two ways to build API documentation: [OpenAPI](https://mintlify.com/docs/api-playground/openapi/setup) and [MDX components](https://mintlify.com/docs/api-playground/mdx/configuration). For the starter kit, we are using the following OpenAPI specification.

## Base URL
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
https://performance.miningwood.com
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For local development:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
http://localhost:5000
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Authentication
|
## Authentication
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
All API endpoints are authenticated using Bearer tokens and picked up from the specification file.
|
All API endpoints require authentication via Google OAuth 2.0. The API uses session-based authentication with HTTP-only cookies set after successful OAuth login.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<Info>
|
||||||
|
See the [Authentication guide](/api-reference/auth) for details on the OAuth flow and session management.

## Response Format
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
All API responses return JSON with a consistent structure:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Success Response
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```json
|
```json
|
||||||
"security": [
|
{
|
||||||
{
|
"success": true,
|
||||||
"bearerAuth": []
|
"data": { ... },
|
||||||
}
|
"data_source": "postgresql"
|
||||||
]
|
}
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Error Response
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```json
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
"success": false,
|
||||||
|
"error": "Error message description"
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Common Response Fields
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Field | Type | Description |
|
||||||
|
|-------|------|-------------|
|
||||||
|
| `success` | boolean | Indicates if the request was successful |
|
||||||
|
| `error` | string | Error message (only present on failure) |
|
||||||
|
| `data_source` | string | Database source (typically "postgresql") |
|
||||||
|
| `redirect_to_login` | boolean | Whether client should redirect to login (for 401 errors) |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## HTTP Status Codes
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The API uses standard HTTP status codes:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Code | Meaning | When Used |
|
||||||
|
|------|---------|-----------|
|
||||||
|
| `200` | OK | Successful request |
|
||||||
|
| `400` | Bad Request | Invalid request parameters |
|
||||||
|
| `401` | Unauthorized | Authentication required |
|
||||||
|
| `403` | Forbidden | User not authorized |
|
||||||
|
| `404` | Not Found | Resource not found |
|
||||||
|
| `500` | Internal Server Error | Server-side error |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Rate Limiting
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<Note>
|
||||||
|
The API does not currently implement rate limiting, but the Finnhub price refresh endpoint is subject to Finnhub's API rate limits (60 requests/minute for free tier).

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Always check the `success` field before processing response data:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```javascript
|
||||||
|
const response = await fetch('/api/months');
|
||||||
|
const data = await response.json();
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if (!data.success) {
|
||||||
|
console.error('API Error:', data.error);
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if (data.redirect_to_login) {
|
||||||
|
window.location.href = '/auth/login';
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
return;
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
// Process data.months
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
