Getting Started with Shell Card Management APIs

Introduction

The Shell Card Management API is REST-based and employs OAUTH 2.0,Basic and ApiKey authentication. The API endpoints accept JSON-encoded request bodies, return JSON-encoded responses and use standard HTTP response codes.
All resources are located in the Shell Card Platform. The Shell Card Platform is the overall platform that encompasses all the internal Shell systems used to manage resources. The internal workings of the platform are not important when interacting with the API. However, it is worth noting that the platform uses a microservice architecture to communicate with various backend systems and some API calls are processed asynchronously. All endpoints use the POST verb for retrieving, updating, creating and deleting resources in the Shell Card Platform. The endpoints that retrieve resources from the Shell Card Platform allow flexible search parameters in the API request body.

`unstableHttpClientOptions`	`any`	Unstable configurable http client options.
`basicAuthCredentials`	`BasicAuthCredentials`	The credential object for basicAuth
`bearerTokenCredentials`	`BearerTokenCredentials`	The credential object for bearerToken

HttpClientOptions

Parameter	Type	Description
`timeout`	`number`	Timeout in milliseconds.
`httpAgent`	`any`	Custom http agent to be used when performing http requests.
`httpsAgent`	`any`	Custom https agent to be used when performing http requests.
`retryConfig`	`Partial<RetryConfiguration>`	Configurations to retry requests.

RetryConfiguration

Parameter	Type	Description
`maxNumberOfRetries`	`number`	Maximum number of retries. Default: `0`
`retryOnTimeout`	`boolean`	Whether to retry on request timeout. Default: `true`
