API and Webhooks

Programmatic access to every guide, capture, and event.

The Snapn REST API lets you trigger captures from any event, fetch guides with their full step metadata, receive webhook notifications when documentation changes, and pipe Snapn into any existing tool stack.

Token-based authentication: API keys scoped per workspace. Rotate without disrupting existing integrations.
Consistent REST patterns: every resource follows the same response structure. No surprises.
Webhook events for guide.created, guide.approved, capture.completed, gap.detected, and more.
