For Agents

Programmatically fetch an api key (production), fetch an api key (jwt). Covers 151 operations with basic authentication.

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Zulip REST API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Zulip REST API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Zulip REST API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Communications Operations

Use the Zulip REST API to perform communications operations programmatically. The API provides 151 endpoints covering core functionality including fetch an api key (production), fetch an api key (jwt), fetch an api key (development only).

Call POST /fetch_api_key to fetch an api key (production)

Automated Attachments Management

Automate attachments operations by combining multiple Zulip REST API endpoints. Agents can fetch an api key (jwt) and then fetch an api key (development only) in a single workflow.

Call POST /jwt/fetch_api_key to fetch an api key (jwt), then verify the result

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Zulip REST API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle basic tokens manually.

Search Jentic for 'fetch an api key (production)', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Zulip REST API basic credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search by intent (e.g., 'fetch an api key (production)') and Jentic returns the matching Zulip REST API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.

Time to first call

Direct Zulip REST API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs

Specific to using Zulip REST API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Zulip REST API use?

The Zulip REST API uses HTTP Basic authentication with username and password. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

Can I fetch an api key (production) with the Zulip REST API?

Yes. Use the POST /fetch_api_key endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

What are the rate limits for the Zulip REST API?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

How do I fetch an api key (production) through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'fetch an api key (production)'. Jentic returns the matching Zulip REST API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the Zulip REST API have?

The Zulip REST API exposes 151 endpoints covering attachments, bots, calls operations.
