Types of namespaces

The Link11 WAAP API includes over a dozen namespaces, each containing a number of routes.

Each namespace has its own page in the documentation, listing all its routes, their parameters, and so on. These pages can be accessed in the left sidebar, in the Namespace reference section.

The namespace pages are intended to act as a reference. They assume that you're already familiar with how to use the API, which is explained here Using the Product / The Link11 WAAP API.

Also, by default, every L11WAAP planet includes a Swagger UI instance that offers this same namespace information. However, the Swagger instance also provides additional interactive features, such as automatically building curl commands, submitting API calls directly, and more. Read more about this.

Below is a general guide to the namespaces, showing the type of functionality each one provides. The namespaces can be organized into three broad categories:

• Security settings

• Site-related settings

• Other capabilities
