Adobe Suite Base connections API

Base connections retain information regarding how to connect to a source or target. For destinations, the source that you are connecting to is Experience Platform data and the target is the desired destination. The base connection configuration always includes a unique `connectionSpec ID`, which is necessary in order to successfully access Experience Platform data and authorize a connection to the target destination.

Adobe Suite Base connections API is one of 482 APIs that Adobe Suite publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.

Tagged areas include Base connections. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, authentication docs, pricing, release notes, and a getting-started guide.

This API exposes 5 operations across 2 paths, and defines 24 schemas. It is described by OpenAPI 3.2.0, at version 1.0.0.

Requests are made against a single base URL, https://{environment}.adobe.io/data/foundation/flowservice.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Adobe Suite Base connections API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
