For Agents
An agent can read, create, and reply to Gorgias support tickets, look up and enrich customer records, apply macros, manage tags and automation rules, populate custom fields, and pull satisfaction and statistics data across the helpdesk. It can choose between the lighter core API for everyday ticket and customer work and the full REST surface for reporting, rules, surveys, and custom data.
Gorgias is a helpdesk purpose-built for e-commerce merchants, tying support conversations to customer and order context rather than serving as a general-purpose ticketing tool. Both of its published specs share one Basic auth model and helpdesk data model, differing only in how much of the surface they expose.
2 APIs across 1 product group. All share one credential.
| I want to... | Use |
|---|---|
| Read, create, and reply to support tickets and look up customers | Gorgias API |
| Reach automation rules, custom fields, satisfaction surveys, voice, and statistics | Gorgias REST API |
| Define and populate custom fields on tickets or customers | Gorgias REST API |
Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Gorgias APIs, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fgorgias.com" | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fgorgias.com" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
Once connected, ask your agent something like: “automate the gorgias helpdesk: reply to tickets and pull satisfaction data”.
Each workflow spans multiple Gorgias APIs. Jentic routes each operation to the right API automatically.
What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring either Gorgias API by hand means setting up Basic auth with the merchant email and API key, resolving the {domain}.gorgias.com host per account, and matching calls across the resource surface. Through Jentic you install Jentic One once, add the Gorgias APIs from the Jentic directory, store the email and key once, and your agent calls both.
Permission scoping
Gorgias puts resource ids in the URL path, so your own rules can pin an agent to one ticket or one customer and to a chosen set of operations. Reporting, rule changes, or custom field writes are not available to the agent unless you add those operations.
Credential isolation
Your Gorgias merchant email and API key are stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time as the Basic auth header. They never enter the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search the Jentic directory by intent such as 'reply to a support ticket' or 'list satisfaction surveys', and Jentic returns the matching Gorgias operation from the right API with its input schema, so the agent calls the correct endpoint without browsing the reference docs.
Specific to using Gorgias APIs through Jentic.
What is the difference between the two Gorgias APIs?
The Gorgias API is a lighter 17-endpoint surface covering the most-used helpdesk objects: tickets, messages, customers, macros, tags, teams, and integrations. The Gorgias REST API is the comprehensive 111-endpoint surface that also reaches automation rules, custom fields, satisfaction surveys, voice, statistics, and account settings. Use the smaller one for everyday ticket and customer work and the larger one when you need reporting, rules, or custom data.
Do both APIs use the same authentication?
Yes. Both use HTTP Basic with the merchant email as username and a Gorgias account API key as password, scoped to the merchant subdomain. A single credential pair works across both APIs, so you store it once and reuse it.
Which API should an agent use to reply to a ticket?
Either exposes ticket messaging, but the core Gorgias API is the simpler choice for posting a public or internal reply to a ticket thread. Reach for the comprehensive REST API when the same workflow also needs custom fields, automation rules, or satisfaction data.
Why does Jentic publish these Gorgias specs?
Gorgias does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains both specs, validated against the live API and kept up to date, so AI agents and developers can call Gorgias through structured tooling instead of hand-writing requests.
What can an agent not do with these APIs?
These are helpdesk APIs. They do not manage orders, inventory, fulfillment, payments, or marketing email. Pair Gorgias with an e-commerce platform or CRM when a workflow needs order context or customer data beyond what the helpdesk stores.
Can I run e-commerce support reporting across both APIs?
BOOK A DEMO
Browse thousands of APIs and connect them all to your agent with Jentic One. One layer, one credential — every API your agent needs.
Use for: Automating Gorgias e-commerce helpdesk work: reading, creating, and replying to tickets, looking up and enriching customers, applying macros and tags, managing automation rules and custom fields, and pulling satisfaction and statistics data.
Not supported: order management, inventory management, fulfillment, marketing email, payment processing, real-time streaming
Credentials: Both APIs use the same HTTP Basic model, with the merchant email as username and a Gorgias account API key as password, scoped to the merchant subdomain, so one credential pair covers both.
All 2 Gorgias OpenAPI documents are Jentic-generated and indexed by Jentic, kept validated and agent-ready.
Gorgias is a helpdesk platform built for e-commerce, unifying support tickets across email, chat, voice, and social channels. Its APIs cover the full helpdesk surface: creating and updating tickets, looking up and merging customers, appending public and internal messages, applying response macros, managing tags and automation rules, defining custom fields, and pulling satisfaction survey and statistics data. Jentic publishes and maintains the OpenAPI specifications for both the lighter core Gorgias API and the comprehensive Gorgias REST API so AI agents can call them through structured tooling.
Reply on the core API, report on the full surface
Handle everyday inbound tickets through the core API (create tickets, append messages, apply macros, tag for routing), then use the comprehensive REST API to pull satisfaction survey responses and helpdesk statistics for the same tickets into a reporting pipeline. One Basic credential covers both steps.
Reply to open tickets tagged 'order-status' via the core API, then fetch the prior 7 days of satisfaction survey responses on the REST API and load the average score per agent into the warehouse.
Gorgias API + Gorgias REST API
Enrich tickets with custom fields during triage
An agent classifies and routes new tickets through the core API's ticket, tag, and team endpoints, then writes merchant-specific attributes such as order channel or membership tier via the REST API's custom field endpoints so downstream rules and reporting can segment on them.
Classify ticket 6677889, tag it and assign the team via the core API, then set the custom field 'order_channel' to 'wholesale' on the ticket via the REST API and confirm the value persists.
Gorgias API + Gorgias REST API
Seasonal rule control around live ticketing
During a campaign, an agent replies to inbound tickets and applies refund macros through the core API while using the REST API's rules endpoints to enable or disable automation rules on a schedule, keeping the right macros and tags firing without manual dashboard toggling.
Disable rule 4321 ('weekend-auto-reply') on Friday evening via the REST API, and over the weekend reply to inbound tickets and apply the 'order-shipped' macro through the core API.
Gorgias API + Gorgias REST API
Yes. Handle live ticketing on the core API and use the REST API's surveys and statistics endpoints to export satisfaction scores and volume metrics on a schedule. Because both share one credential and data model, an agent can move between reply and reporting steps without reconnecting.
All 3 are in the Jentic catalogue with the same one-credential, intent-search pattern.
