Welcome to Lightyshare API

The Lightyshare API allows users to access and manage their products, bundles, and rentals through third-party integrations. This REST API uses Bearer token authentication to secure all endpoints.

OpenAPI Specification

View the complete OpenAPI specification

​
Authentication

All API requests require a user authentication token. You can include it in two ways: 
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer lsh_live_abc123..." \
     https://lightyshare.com/api/token-secured/product/123

​
Option 2: Query Parameter

curl https://lightyshare.com/api/token-secured/product/123?token=lsh_live_abc123...

​
Versioning

Lightyshare uses a date-based versioning system to maintain backwards compatibility.

​
Version Format

API versions use the format YYYY-MM-DD (e.g., 2025-08-16)

​
How It Works

  1. Token-based versioning: Each API token is automatically tied to the latest version available at creation time
  2. Request-level override: You can specify a different version using the lighty-version header
  3. Stable URLs: API URLs remain stable - versioning is handled via token or header

​
Examples

# Uses token's default version
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer lsh_live_abc123..." \
     https://lightyshare.com/api/token-secured/rental/123

# Override with specific version
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer lsh_live_abc123..." \
     -H "lighty-version: 2025-01-15" \
     https://lightyshare.com/api/token-secured/rental/123
The API version used is always returned in the X-API-Version response header.
