Working with the Leanmote API

A bridge to the developer documentation for the Leanmote REST, Metrics, SCIM, and OTLP APIs.

Updated yesterday

This article is the bridge from the Help Center to Leanmote's developer documentation. If you're integrating with Leanmote programmatically — building dashboards in your own tooling, syncing user identities, or pushing telemetry — you want the developer docs at leanmote.github.io/docs.

API surfaces

  • REST API — programmatic access to organizations, teams, users, integrations, and dashboards. REST API reference.

  • Metrics API — analytical metric payloads across DORA, flow, collaboration, and financial views. Metrics API reference.

  • SCIM Handler — enterprise user provisioning and lifecycle automation. SCIM reference.

  • OTEL Ingest — telemetry ingestion for AI tools and custom workflow events. OTEL Ingest reference.

Quick reference

  • Authentication: bearer token (Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN)

  • Token generation: Administration → Settings → API Tokens

  • Default rate limits: 1000 requests/hour, 100 requests/minute burst

Common use cases

  • Embed metrics in your own dashboards — fetch from the Metrics API and render in your data tool.

  • Automate user lifecycle — use SCIM with your IdP to create, update, and deactivate users.

  • Stream AI tool telemetry — use OTLP ingest for Claude Code or custom AI workflows.

  • Build a custom integration — combine REST and Metrics APIs to bring Leanmote data into bespoke internal tooling.

SDKs

Official SDKs are in development for Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, and Go. Until they ship, the documented endpoints are stable to call directly with any HTTP client.

Webhooks

Leanmote supports outgoing webhooks for real-time notifications. Configure them under Administration → Settings → Integrations → Webhooks. The full payload schema lives in the developer docs.

Why this article links out

The developer documentation auto-updates from our engineering repository, so it's always current. Maintaining a duplicate copy in the Help Center would drift. Use this article as the entry point and the docs site as the reference.
