Secret API keys can be generated in the Spree admin dashboard. ## Response Format All responses are JSON. List endpoints return paginated responses with `data` and `meta` keys. Single resource endpoints return a flat JSON object. ## Resource IDs Every resource is identified by an opaque string ID (e.g. `prod_86Rf07xd4z`, `variant_k5nR8xLq`, `or_UkLWZg9DAJ`). Use these IDs everywhere — URL paths, request bodies, and Ransack filters all accept them directly. ## Error Handling Errors return a consistent format: ```json { "error": { "code": "validation_error", "message": "Validation failed", "details": { "name": ["can't be blank"] } } } ``` version: v3 servers: -
