ServeManager API

Overview

Collaboration

Collaboration with other ServeManager users is the most common use case for the API, and something that you will likely want to take advantage of. Currently, collaboration must be setup within the app. This process is outlined in this article on collaboration. A directory of ServeManager users is available within the app and is a great resource for finding experienced ServeManager users to collaborate with in nearly every state and a few countries!

For instance, as a law firm with a high volume of jobs that require service of process, you could set up collaboration between process servers that are already using ServeManager to manage their jobs in all of the locations that service needs to occur in. Using the API, you could create jobs and assign them to the companies that service the area of the job. Status updates, attempts, notes, affidavits and invoices on those jobs could all be obtained from the API and that data used to update your internal systems.

Building a Client

In order to build a basic client for the ServeManager API, three main concepts are required.

Authentication
GET an existing resource
POST (create) a resource

Our recommendation is to start build your client code in that order. Once you have mastered each, you can reapply the the code and concepts to the other API endpoints you need.

Check out our basic ruby client example code to see how we approached this process. We only worried about getting the correct response status from the API for each concept. If you've got the right status code from the API for all three concepts, you can move on to decoding the JSON response and adding the business logic for your app.

You can build your library with any language and access the API from any platform you prefer. Ruby is not required.

Design of the API

The API is designed to expose easily understandable URLs and to use HTTP response codes to indicate request status and errors. The ServeManager API is RESTful and response bodies are JSON.

Examples requests are shown using the command line utility curl, which is not required for accessing the API in any way. It's a simple way of demonstrating resource URLs, expected headers and data payloads. We would recommend using an alternative for production.

Authentication

If you are an account owner, create an API key by visiting the API Keys page. Keep your API key secret. Never email or send the key in plain text.

SSL is required for all requests, and every endpoint has the base URL https://www.servemanager.com/. HTTP Basic Authentication is used to identify your account with an API key.

Your API key is the username in the HTTP Basic Authentication header, the password should remain empty. In the curl examples that follow, replace ${API_KEY} with the key from your account settings. The colon after ${API_KEY} in the examples is the username:password delimiter. ${API_KEY} is the username, password empty. \ characters in the examples are used to split the arguments to newlines in the shell for easier reading.

curl https://www.servemanager.com/api/account \
  -u ${API_KEY}: \

You may need to base64 encode the Authorization header value if your web request library does not. In this .NET/C# basic example the userName variable is your API key, and userPassword variable should be an empty string.

Content Type

JSON is the only supported content type for POST, PUT, PATCH, GET methods.

HTTP header Content-Type: application/json must be set when performing a POST, PUT, PATCH method. The body of the request must be JSON-encoded. Requests that don't fulfill these requirements will be rejected with HTTP status 406.

Enumerated Attributes

A number of endpoints contain enumerated attributes, and will return or accept a single value from a number of options. Some of these enumerated attributes support custom values (Any arbitrary value you desire). Sending an unsupported value in a POST, PUT, PATCH endpoint will still succeed, but editing that company from within the servemanager application may not display the unsupported value properly. Endpoints that support enumerated values will be indicated below, with a list of their accepted values.

Date Formatting

A number of attributes in the API are dates or datetimes. Whether using GET to access a date, or creating/updating a resource's date, the format should always match the ISO 8601 date format standard.

Date example: 2013-02-27

Date with time example: 2013-02-27T15:18:23-04:00

Pagination

All index API endpoints support pagination. Pagination links will be available in the top-level of the JSON response

Example:

"links":{
  "self":"https://www.servemanager.com/api/employees?page=1",
  "first":"https://www.servemanager.com/api/employees?page=1",
  "last":"https://www.servemanager.com/api/employees?page=3",
  "prev":null,
  "next":"https://www.servemanager.com/api/employees?page=2"
}

If multiple pages exist, either the "prev" or "next" attributes will contain endpoint URLs to request additional records. Requesting a page beyond the last one (In this example, if you requested the endpoint with a page=4 URL parameter), an empty data object will be returned.

Creating a new job

When creating a new job, you should first determine which associated objects you want on the job by either creating them, or using an id. Associations you will want to know before hand are: Client Company, Client Contact, Process Server Company, Process Server Contact, Employee Process Server, Court Case (Which itself requires a Court Location).

If any of these objects are absent or unknown when you create the job, you can omit the ids entirely.

For example, to create a new job with a client company/contact, you would first need to create a new company (or use a company_id that you already know), and then create the job.

ServeManager Job ID Distinction

When displaying ServeManager Job IDs to users, always use job.servemanager_job_number.

job.idis for your internal system reference only and should never be presented to a user. This is a source of confusion because the ServeManager UI and users use the phrase "Job ID" to reference jobs. They are actually referring to. job.servemanager_job_number behind the scenes. Currently job.servemanager_job_number is system-generated and not able to be user-defined.

Uploading Documents

ServeManager distinguishes between two types of uploads: documents to be served and miscellaneous attachments. Documents to be served is intended only for service documents. Miscellaneous attachments should be used for ancillary documents such as photos of a recipient.

The upload process involves two steps. First, include meta data about the documents in the documents_to_be_served_attributes and misc_attachments_attributes on the job create endpoint. Second, the job response will contain a publicly accessible URL: put_url. See the document upload example. This URL is a short-lived, publicly-accessible URL. Use it only for a single document upload; it will expire shortly after job create. Uploads should be done immediately after a job is created.

This process ensures web requests are not blocked by long-running uploads.

System Event Emails

There are a number of emails that are sent on the user's behalf when performing certain actions within ServeManager. When using the API to perform these actions the system WILL NOT send an email on the user's behalf.

Troubleshooting

Some solutions to common problems encountered when getting started with the API.

Ensure Content-Type header is being set. POST and PUT requests will fail with status 406 if header is not Content-Type: application/json.
Ensure POSTed data is JSON encoded. If data is url-encoded, status 409 may be returned.
Ensure Basic auth header is base64 encoding the username:password value. All requests may fail with status 401 unauthorized otherwise.
Inspect error responses. They may contain messages that help determine the issue.

Status Codes

200 - Success
201 - Created
401 - Unauthorized (API key not recognized. Ensure API key is HTTP Auth username, password empty, and value is base64 encoded)
403 - Forbidden (API key recognized, but some other permission is preventing you from using this request - see errors in response for details)
406 - Not Acceptable (ensure HTTP header "Content-Type: application/json" )
422 - Invalid Request (validation errors, see errors in response)
409 - Conflict (See errors in response)
500 - Server Error

The list of jobs can be filtered down by providing various URL parameters. Note that parameters with additional options may need to have their brackets [] URL-escaped as such: %5B for [, %5D for ]

Parameter	Description	Supported Values	Example
court_case_id	Only list jobs associated with a specific court_case	Any valid, numerical id for an existing court_case	/api/jobs?court_case_id=123456

filter	Filters jobs by specific criteria (options are listed/explained below). Filter options that accept arrays will display jobs that match any of the given values. For example, sending "1", and "2" to the attempt_count filter will show all jobs with 1 or 2 attempts on them - but NOT jobs with 0, 3, or more than 3 attempts. On the other hand, different types of filters will only display those jobs that match all of the given filters. For example, requesting archive_state=archived and attempt_count=1 will show only those jobs that are both archived, and have exactly 1 attempt on them.
filter[archive_state]	List jobs based on whether they have been archived or not.	Only the values "all", "active", or "archived" will do anything. Omitting the parameter defaults to "active", and unknown values will be ignored.	/api/jobs?filter[archive_state]=archived

filter[attempt_count][]	An array of options that filters jobs by the number of attempts made on those jobs.	There are two formats of values accepted: Any numerical value greater than or equal to 0 Any number >= 0 followed by the plus (+) sign. This will show jobs that have >= that number of attempts made. For example, 4+ will show jobs with 4 or more attempts. The plus symbol should be URL-escaped as `%2B`	/api/jobs?filter[attempt_count][]=3&filter[attempt_count][]=3+
filter[service_status][]	An array of options that filters based on the service status	You may send an empty value (which filters by jobs with NO service status), or any of the values "Attempted", "Non-Service", or "Served".	/api/jobs?filter[service_status][]=&filter[service_status]=Attempted
filter[job_status][]	An array of options that filters by user-defined job statuses	Any value is valid here, as the available job statuses are customizable for your account. The defaults that accounts start with are: "Canceled", "Filed", "On Hold", and "Skip Trace". Sending an empty value will filter by jobs with no job status set at all	/api/jobs?filter[job_status][]=On Hold
filter[date_range][type]	Filters a timestamp by date range. `type` is the name of the timestamp to filter by `min` and `max` specify the range.

filter[date_range][max]	The max date for the date range filter	Formatted "2013-02-27T15:18:23-04:00". Should be a date later than `[min]`, `[min]`	See filter[date_range][type] example
