API Endpoint Reference (1.5)

Tenovos has introduced version 1.5 to provide non-breaking improvements over previous versions.

Key Changes:

  • Authentication Standards now include OAuth2 code flow.
  • Client ID is no longer required to be passed when requesting an Authorization token using our Standard Auth from v1.4
  • New endpoints have been added and will continue to be added until v2 is generally available to all customers.
    • Adaptive Template endpoints
    • A new Get Asset endpoint with a simplified Response
    • A new Create Asset endpoint with simplified payloads for the Request and Response
    • A new Update Asset endpoint with simplified payloads for the Request and Response
    • Metadata Admin API endpoints for managing Attributes, Groups, and Templates
  • We've made some performance improvements to most endpoints

Operations

CDN (Coming Soon!)

Tenovos Content Delivery Network (CDN) - Coming Soon!

Tenovos CDN: Pull Zone Overview

Tenovos CDN provides global content acceleration and optimization through a pull zone architecture, ensuring that your assets are delivered to end users with maximum speed, reliability, and efficiency. A Content Delivery Network (CDN) works by caching static content—such as images, videos, and other media—on servers distributed across the globe. When an asset is requested, the CDN serves it from the nearest edge location, reducing load times and offloading traffic from the origin server, which in this case is Tenovos DAM.

A pull zone is the core mechanism that powers this system. It automatically fetches content from the origin the first time it is requested, then caches it at the edge. Subsequent requests are served directly from the CDN cache, improving response times and reducing bandwidth consumption.

Through the Tenovos CDN API, you can create, update, and manage pull zones programmatically. Pull zones support advanced features such as global edge caching, cache purging, bandwidth controls, and real-time performance statistics like cache hit rate and geographic request distribution. Optional optimization settings allow you to enhance performance further by enabling image compression, WebP and AVIF support, and content minification.

With just a few API calls, you can fully integrate high-performance content delivery into your Tenovos workflows—no complex infrastructure required.

Operations

COLLECTIONS

Invoke the Collection API to create, retrieve, edit, and delete Collections. Collections are used to group and catalog related Assets for quick access and consumption. Collections can be configured as:

  • private: Visible only to the user who created the Collection.
  • secured: Visible to users with.

When retrieving the Assets within a Collection, the requesting user will only see the Assets that the user has access to view. For example, a librarian may see all Assets within a Collection, but a general consumer user may only see a portion of those Assets, due to limited security access.

Operations

METADATA ATTRIBUTES

Invoke the Metadata Attributes API to retrieve Metadata Attributes, and to create, read, update, and delete Metadata Attribute definitions. Metadata Attributes come in varying types, including Text, Date, Controlled Vocabulary, Tabular, and Cascading, and can be assigned to Metadata Groups and Templates.

Admin Endpoints (NEW!): Create, read, update, and delete Metadata Attributes. These endpoints require the Metadata Management admin privilege.

Operations

METADATA GROUPS

Invoke the Metadata Groups API to create, read, update, and delete Metadata Groups. A Metadata Group organizes related Metadata Attributes together for use within a Metadata Template.

Admin Endpoints (NEW!): These endpoints require the Metadata Management admin privilege.

Operations

METADATA TEMPLATES

Invoke the Metadata Templates API to create, read, update, and delete Metadata Templates, and to apply Metadata definition changes. A Metadata Template defines a set of Metadata Attributes that, when assigned to an Asset, become available for population on that Asset.

Admin Endpoints (NEW!): Create, read, update, and delete Metadata Templates. These endpoints require the Metadata Management admin privilege.

Operations

METADATA VOCABULARIES

Invoke the Controlled Vocabularies API to create, retrieve, update, and delete Controlled Vocabularies used to constrain the values available to a Metadata Attribute.

Operations

METADATA CASCADES

Invoke the Metadata Cascades API to create, retrieve, update, and delete Cascading Attributes, a Metadata Attribute type whose available values depend on the value selected in a parent Attribute.

Operations

METADATA TABLES

Operations

REQUESTS

Invoke these API's to create new Requests and manage existing Requests.
