|
||||
|
||||
Twenty was built to be developer-friendly, offering powerful APIs that adapt to your custom data model. We provide four distinct API types to meet different integration needs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Developer-First Approach
|
||||
|
||||
Twenty generates APIs specifically for your data model:
|
||||
|
||||
* **No long IDs required**: Use your object and field names directly in endpoints
|
||||
* **Standard and custom objects treated equally**: Your custom objects get the same API treatment as built-in ones
|
||||
* **Dedicated endpoints**: Each object and field gets its own API endpoint
|
||||
* **Custom documentation**: Generated specifically for your workspace's data model
|
||||
|
||||
<Note>
|
||||
Your personalized API documentation is available under **Settings → API & Webhooks** after creating an API key. Since Twenty generates APIs that match your custom data model, the documentation is unique to your workspace.
|
||||
</Note>
|
||||
|
||||
## The Two API Types
|
||||
|
||||
### Core API
|
||||
|
||||
Accessed on `/rest/` or `/graphql/`
|
||||
|
||||
Work with your actual **records** (the data):
|
||||
|
||||
* Create, read, update, delete People, Companies, Opportunities, etc.
|
||||
* Query and filter data
|
||||
* Manage record relationships
|
||||
|
||||
### Metadata API
|
||||
|
||||
Accessed on `/rest/metadata/` or `/metadata/`
|
||||
|
||||
Manage your **workspace and data model**:
|
||||
|
||||
* Create, modify, or delete objects and fields
|
||||
* Configure workspace settings
|
||||
* Define relationships between objects
|
||||
|
||||
## REST vs GraphQL
|
||||
|
||||
Both Core and Metadata APIs are available in REST and GraphQL formats:
|
||||
|
||||
| Format | Available Operations |
|
||||
| ----------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| **REST** | CRUD, batch operations, upserts |
|
||||
| **GraphQL** | Same + **batch upserts**, relationship queries in one call |
|
||||
|
||||
Choose based on your needs — both formats access the same data.
|
||||
|
||||
## API Endpoints
|
||||
|
||||
| Environment | Base URL |
|
||||
| --------------- | ------------------------- |
|
||||
| **Cloud** | `https://api.twenty.com/` |
|
||||
| **Self-Hosted** | `https://{your-domain}/` |
|
||||
|
||||
## Authentication
|
||||
|
||||
Every API request requires an API key in the header:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Create an API Key
|
||||
|
||||
1. Go to **Settings → APIs & Webhooks**
|
||||
2. Click **+ Create key**
|
||||
3. Configure:
|
||||
* **Name**: Descriptive name for the key
|
||||
* **Expiration Date**: When the key expires
|
||||
4. Click **Save**
|
||||
5. **Copy immediately** — the key is only shown once
|
||||
|
||||
<VimeoEmbed videoId="928786722" title="Creating API key" />
|
||||
|
||||
<Warning>
|
||||
Your API key grants access to sensitive data. Don't share it with untrusted services. If compromised, disable it immediately and generate a new one.
|
||||
</Warning>
|
||||
|
||||
### Assign a Role to an API Key
|
||||
|
||||
For better security, assign a specific role to limit access:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Go to **Settings → Roles**
|
||||
2. Click on the role to assign
|
||||
3. Open the **Assignment** tab
|
||||
4. Under **API Keys**, click **+ Assign to API key**
|
||||
5. Select the API key
|
||||
|
||||
The key will inherit that role's permissions. See [Permissions](/l/ko/user-guide/permissions-access/capabilities/permissions) for details.
|
||||
|
||||
### Manage API Keys
|
||||
|
||||
**Regenerate**: Settings → APIs & Webhooks → Click key → **Regenerate**
|
||||
|
||||
**Delete**: Settings → APIs & Webhooks → Click key → **Delete**
|
||||
|
||||
## API Playground
|
||||
|
||||
Test your APIs directly in the browser with our built-in playground — available for both **REST** and **GraphQL**.
|
||||
|
||||
### Access the Playground
|
||||
|
||||
1. Go to **Settings → APIs & Webhooks**
|
||||
2. Create an API key (required)
|
||||
3. Click on **REST API** or **GraphQL API** to open the playground
|
||||
|
||||
### What You Get
|
||||
|
||||
* **Interactive documentation**: Generated for your specific data model
|
||||
* **Live testing**: Execute real API calls against your workspace
|
||||
* **Schema explorer**: Browse available objects, fields, and relationships
|
||||
* **Request builder**: Construct queries with autocomplete
|
||||
|
||||
The playground reflects your custom objects and fields, so documentation is always accurate for your workspace.
|
||||
|
||||
## Batch Operations
|
||||
|
||||
Both REST and GraphQL support batch operations:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Batch size**: Up to 60 records per request
|
||||
* **Operations**: Create, update, delete multiple records
|
||||
|
||||
**GraphQL-only features:**
|
||||
|
||||
* **Batch Upsert**: Create or update in one call
|
||||
* Use plural object names (e.g., `CreateCompanies` instead of `CreateCompany`)
|
||||
|
||||
## Rate Limits
|
||||
|
||||
API requests are throttled to ensure platform stability:
|
||||
|
||||
| Limit | Value |
|
||||
| -------------- | -------------------- |
|
||||
| **Requests** | 100 calls per minute |
|
||||
| **Batch size** | 60 records per call |
|
||||
|
||||
<Tip>
|
||||
Use batch operations to maximize throughput — process up to 60 records in a single API call instead of making individual requests.

title: Twenty Apps
|
||||
description: Build and manage Twenty customizations as code.
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
<Warning>
|
||||
Apps are currently in alpha testing. The feature is functional but still evolving.
|
||||
</Warning>
|
||||
|
||||
## What Are Apps?
|
||||
|
||||
Apps let you build and manage Twenty customizations **as code**. Instead of configuring everything through the UI, you define your data model and serverless functions in code — making it faster to build, maintain, and roll out to multiple workspaces.
|
||||
|
||||
**What you can do today:**
|
||||
|
||||
* Define custom objects and fields as code (managed data model)
|
||||
* Build serverless functions with custom triggers
|
||||
* Deploy the same app across multiple workspaces
|
||||
|
||||
**Coming soon:**
|
||||
|
||||
* Custom UI layouts and components
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
* Node.js 24+ and Yarn 4
|
||||
* A Twenty workspace and an API key (create one at https://app.twenty.com/settings/api-webhooks)
|
||||
|
||||
## Getting Started
|
||||
|
||||
Create a new app using the official scaffolder, then authenticate and start developing:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash filename="Terminal"
|
||||
# Scaffold a new app
|
||||
npx create-twenty-app@latest my-twenty-app
|
||||
cd my-twenty-app
|
||||
|
||||
# Authenticate using your API key (you'll be prompted)
|
||||
yarn auth
|
||||
|
||||
# Start dev mode: automatically syncs local changes to your workspace
|
||||
yarn dev
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
From here you can:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash filename="Terminal"
|
||||
# Add a new entity to your application (guided)
|
||||
yarn create-entity
|
||||
|
||||
# Generate a typed Twenty client and workspace entity types
|
||||
yarn generate
|
||||
|
||||
# Run a one‑time sync (instead of watch mode)
|
||||
yarn sync
|
||||
|
||||
# Watch your application's functions logs
|
||||
yarn logs
|
||||
|
||||
# Uninstall the application from the current workspace
|
||||
yarn uninstall
|
||||
|
||||
# Display commands' help
|
||||
yarn help
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
See also: the CLI reference pages for [create-twenty-app](https://www.npmjs.com/package/create-twenty-app) and [twenty-sdk CLI](https://www.npmjs.com/package/twenty-sdk).
|
||||
|
||||
## Project structure (scaffolded)
|
||||
|
||||
When you run `npx create-twenty-app@latest my-twenty-app`, the scaffolder:
|
||||
|
||||
* Copies a minimal base application into `my-twenty-app/`
|
||||
* Adds a local `twenty-sdk` dependency and Yarn 4 configuration
|
||||
* Creates config files and scripts wired to the `twenty` CLI
|
||||
* Generates a default application config and a default function role
|
||||
|
||||
A freshly scaffolded app looks like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```text filename="my-twenty-app/"
|
||||
my-twenty-app/
|
||||
package.json
|
||||
yarn.lock
|
||||
.gitignore
|
||||
.nvmrc
|
||||
.yarnrc.yml
|
||||
.yarn/
|
||||
releases/
|
||||
yarn-4.9.2.cjs
|
||||
install-state.gz
|
||||
eslint.config.mjs
|
||||
tsconfig.json
|
||||
README.md
|
||||
src/
|
||||
application.config.ts
|
||||
role.config.ts
|
||||
// your entities, actions, and other app files
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
At a high level:
|
||||
|
||||
* **package.json**: Declares the app name, version, engines (Node 24+, Yarn 4), and adds `twenty-sdk` plus scripts like `dev`, `sync`, `generate`, `create-entity`, `logs`, `uninstall`, and `auth` that delegate to the local `twenty` CLI.
|
||||
* **.gitignore**: Ignores common artifacts such as `node_modules`, `.yarn`, `generated/` (typed client), `dist/`, `build/`, coverage folders, log files, and `.env*` files.
|
||||
* **yarn.lock**, **.yarnrc.yml**, **.yarn/**: Lock and configure the Yarn 4 toolchain used by the project.
|
||||
* **.nvmrc**: Pins the Node.js version expected by the project.
|
||||
* **eslint.config.mjs** and **tsconfig.json**: Provide linting and TypeScript configuration for your app’s TypeScript sources.
|
||||
* **README.md**: A short README in the app root with basic instructions.
|
||||
* **src/**: The main place where you define your application-as-code:
|
||||
* `application.config.ts`: Global configuration for your app (metadata and runtime wiring). See “Application config” below.
|
||||
* `role.config.ts`: Default function role used by your serverless functions. See “Default function role” below.
|
||||
* Future entities, actions/functions, and any supporting code you add.
|
||||
|
||||
Later commands will add more files and folders:
|
||||
|
||||
* `yarn generate` will create a `generated/` folder (typed Twenty client + workspace types).
|
||||
* `yarn create-entity` will add entity definition files under `src/` for your custom objects.
|
||||
|
||||
## Authentication
|
||||
|
||||
The first time you run `yarn auth`, you'll be prompted for:
|
||||
|
||||
* API URL (defaults to http://localhost:3000 or your current workspace profile)
|
||||
* API key
|
||||
|
||||
Your credentials are stored per-user in `~/.twenty/config.json`. You can maintain multiple profiles and switch using `--workspace <name>`.
|
||||
|
||||
Examples:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash filename="Terminal"
|
||||
# Login interactively (recommended)
|
||||
yarn auth
|
||||
|
||||
# Use a specific workspace profile
|
||||
yarn auth --workspace my-custom-workspace
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Use the SDK resources (types & config)
|
||||
|
||||
The twenty-sdk provides typed building blocks you use inside your app. Below are the key pieces you'll touch most often.
|
||||
|
||||
### Defining objects
|
||||
|
||||
Custom objects are regular TypeScript classes annotated with decorators from `twenty-sdk`. They live under `src/objects/` in your app and describe both schema and behavior for records in your workspace.
|
||||
|
||||
Here is an example `postCard` object from the Hello World app:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
import { type Note } from '../../generated';
|
||||
|
||||
import {
|
||||
type AddressField,
|
||||
Field,
|
||||
FieldType,
|
||||
type FullNameField,
|
||||
Object,
|
||||
OnDeleteAction,
|
||||
Relation,
|
||||
RelationType,
|
||||
STANDARD_OBJECT_UNIVERSAL_IDENTIFIERS,
|
||||
} from 'twenty-sdk';
|
||||
|
||||
enum PostCardStatus {
|
||||
DRAFT = 'DRAFT',
|
||||
SENT = 'SENT',
|
||||
DELIVERED = 'DELIVERED',
|
||||
RETURNED = 'RETURNED',
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
@Object({
|
||||
universalIdentifier: '54b589ca-eeed-4950-a176-358418b85c05',
|
||||
nameSingular: 'postCard',
|
||||
namePlural: 'postCards',
|
||||
labelSingular: 'Post card',
|
||||
labelPlural: 'Post cards',
|
||||
description: ' A post card object',
|
||||
icon: 'IconMail',
|
||||
})
|
||||
export class PostCard {
|
||||
@Field({
|
||||
universalIdentifier: '58a0a314-d7ea-4865-9850-7fb84e72f30b',
|
||||
type: FieldType.TEXT,
|
||||
label: 'Content',
|
||||
description: "Postcard's content",
|
||||
icon: 'IconAbc',
|
||||
})
|
||||
content: string;
|
||||
|
||||
@Field({
|
||||
universalIdentifier: 'c6aa31f3-da76-4ac6-889f-475e226009ac',
|
||||
type: FieldType.FULL_NAME,
|
||||
label: 'Recipient name',
|
||||
icon: 'IconUser',
|
||||
})
|
||||
recipientName: FullNameField;
|
||||
|
||||
@Field({
|
||||
universalIdentifier: '95045777-a0ad-49ec-98f9-22f9fc0c8266',
|
||||
type: FieldType.ADDRESS,
|
||||
label: 'Recipient address',
|
||||
icon: 'IconHome',
|
||||
})
|
||||
recipientAddress: AddressField;
|
||||
|
||||
@Field({
|
||||
universalIdentifier: '87b675b8-dd8c-4448-b4ca-20e5a2234a1e',
|
||||
type: FieldType.SELECT,
|
||||
label: 'Status',
|
||||
icon: 'IconSend',
|
||||
defaultValue: `'${PostCardStatus.DRAFT}'`,
|
||||
options: [
|
||||
{ value: PostCardStatus.DRAFT, label: 'Draft', position: 0, color: 'gray' },
|
||||
{ value: PostCardStatus.SENT, label: 'Sent', position: 1, color: 'orange' },
|
||||
{ value: PostCardStatus.DELIVERED, label: 'Delivered', position: 2, color: 'green' },
|
||||
{ value: PostCardStatus.RETURNED, label: 'Returned', position: 3, color: 'orange' },
|
||||
],
|
||||
})
|
||||
status: PostCardStatus;
|
||||
|
||||
@Relation({
|
||||
universalIdentifier: 'c9e2b4f4-b9ad-4427-9b42-9971b785edfe',
|
||||
type: RelationType.ONE_TO_MANY,
|
||||
label: 'Notes',
|
||||
icon: 'IconComment',
|
||||
inverseSideTargetUniversalIdentifier: STANDARD_OBJECT_UNIVERSAL_IDENTIFIERS.note,
|
||||
onDelete: OnDeleteAction.CASCADE,
|
||||
})
|
||||
notes: Note[];
|
||||
|
||||
@Field({
|
||||
universalIdentifier: 'e06abe72-5b44-4e7f-93be-afc185a3c433',
|
||||
type: FieldType.DATE_TIME,
|
||||
label: 'Delivered at',
|
||||
icon: 'IconCheck',
|
||||
isNullable: true,
|
||||
defaultValue: null,
|
||||
})
|
||||
deliveredAt?: Date;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Key points:
|
||||
|
||||
* The `@Object` decorator defines the object identity and labels used across the workspace; its `universalIdentifier` must be unique and stable across deployments.
|
||||
* Each `@Field` decorator defines a field on the object with a type, label, and its own stable `universalIdentifier`.
|
||||
* `@Relation` wires this object to other objects (standard or custom) and controls cascade behavior with `onDelete`.
|
||||
* You can scaffold new objects using `yarn create-entity`, which guides you through naming, fields, and relationships, then generates object files similar to the `postCard` example.
|
||||
|
||||
### Application config (application.config.ts)
|
||||
|
||||
Every app has a single `application.config.ts` file that describes:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Who the app is**: identifiers, display name, and description.
|
||||
* **How its functions run**: which role they use for permissions.
|
||||
* **(Optional) variables**: key–value pairs exposed to your functions as environment variables.
|
||||
|
||||
When you scaffold a new app, you start with a minimal config:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
import { type ApplicationConfig } from 'twenty-sdk';
|
||||
|
||||
const config: ApplicationConfig = {
|
||||
universalIdentifier: '<generated-app-uuid>',
|
||||
displayName: 'My Twenty App',
|
||||
description: 'My first Twenty app',
|
||||
functionRoleUniversalIdentifier: '<generated-role-uuid>',
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
export default config;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can gradually extend this file as your app grows. For example, you can add an icon and application-scoped variables:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
import { type ApplicationConfig } from 'twenty-sdk';
|
||||
|
||||
const config: ApplicationConfig = {
|
||||
universalIdentifier: '<your-app-uuid>',
|
||||
displayName: 'My App',
|
||||
description: 'What your app does',
|
||||
icon: 'IconWorld', // Choose an icon by name
|
||||
applicationVariables: {
|
||||
DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_NAME: {
|
||||
universalIdentifier: '<uuid>',
|
||||
description: 'Default recipient used by functions',
|
||||
value: 'Jane Doe',
|
||||
isSecret: false,
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
functionRoleUniversalIdentifier: '<your-role-uuid>',
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
export default config;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Notes:
|
||||
|
||||
* `universalIdentifier` fields are deterministic IDs you own; generate them once and keep them stable across syncs.
|
||||
* `applicationVariables` become environment variables for your functions (for example, `DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_NAME` is available as `process.env.DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_NAME`).
|
||||
* `functionRoleUniversalIdentifier` must match the role you define in `role.config.ts` (see below).
|
||||
|
||||
#### Roles and permissions
|
||||
|
||||
Applications can define roles that encapsulate permissions on your workspace’s objects and actions. The field `functionRoleUniversalIdentifier` in `application.config.ts` designates the default role used by your app’s serverless functions.
|
||||
|
||||
* The runtime API key injected as `TWENTY_API_KEY` is derived from this default function role.
|
||||
* The typed client will be restricted to the permissions granted to that role.
|
||||
* Follow least‑privilege: create a dedicated role with only the permissions your functions need, then reference its universal identifier.
|
||||
|
||||
##### Default function role (role.config.ts)
|
||||
|
||||
When you scaffold a new app, the CLI also creates `src/role.config.ts`. This file exports the default role your serverless functions will use at runtime:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
import { PermissionFlag, type RoleConfig } from 'twenty-sdk';
|
||||
|
||||
export const functionRole: RoleConfig = {
|
||||
universalIdentifier: '<generated-role-uuid>',
|
||||
label: 'My Twenty App default function role',
|
||||
description: 'My Twenty App default function role',
|
||||
canReadAllObjectRecords: true,
|
||||
canUpdateAllObjectRecords: true,
|
||||
canSoftDeleteAllObjectRecords: true,
|
||||
canDestroyAllObjectRecords: false,
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `universalIdentifier` of this role is automatically wired into `application.config.ts` as `functionRoleUniversalIdentifier`. In other words:
|
||||
|
||||
* **role.config.ts** defines what the default function role can do.
|
||||
* **application.config.ts** points to that role so your functions inherit its permissions.
|
||||
|
||||
As you move beyond the initial scaffold, you should tighten this role and make it explicit about what it can access. A more production-ready role might look closer to:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
import { PermissionFlag, type RoleConfig } from 'twenty-sdk';
|
||||
|
||||
export const functionRole: RoleConfig = {
|
||||
universalIdentifier: '<your-role-uuid>',
|
||||
label: 'Default function role',
|
||||
description: 'Default role for function Twenty client',
|
||||
canReadAllObjectRecords: false,
|
||||
canUpdateAllObjectRecords: false,
|
||||
canSoftDeleteAllObjectRecords: false,
|
||||
canDestroyAllObjectRecords: false,
|
||||
canUpdateAllSettings: false,
|
||||
canBeAssignedToAgents: false,
|
||||
canBeAssignedToUsers: false,
|
||||
canBeAssignedToApiKeys: false,
|
||||

};
|

```
|
||||
|
||||
Notes:
|
||||
|
||||
* Start from the scaffolded role, then progressively restrict it following least‑privilege.
|
||||
* Replace the `objectPermissions` and `fieldPermissions` with the objects/fields your functions need.
|
||||
* `permissionFlags` control access to platform-level capabilities. Keep them minimal; add only what you need.
|
||||
* See a working example in the Hello World app: [`packages/twenty-apps/hello-world/src/roles/function-role.ts`](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/blob/main/packages/twenty-apps/hello-world/src/roles/function-role.ts).
|
||||
|
||||
### Serverless function config and entrypoint
|
||||
|
||||
Each function exports a main handler and a config describing its triggers. You can mix multiple trigger types.
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// src/actions/create-new-post-card.ts
|
||||
import type {
|
||||
FunctionConfig,
|
||||
DatabaseEventPayload,
|
||||
ObjectRecordCreateEvent,
|
||||
CronPayload,
|
||||
} from 'twenty-sdk';
|
||||
import Twenty, { type Person } from '../generated';
|
||||
|
||||
// main handler can accept parameters from route, cron, or database events
|
||||
export const main = async (
|
||||
params:
|
||||
| { name?: string }
|
||||
| DatabaseEventPayload<ObjectRecordCreateEvent<Person>>
|
||||
| CronPayload,
|
||||
) => {
|
||||
const client = new Twenty(); // generated typed client
|
||||
const name = 'name' in params
|
||||
? params.name ?? process.env.DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_NAME ?? 'Hello world'
|
||||
: 'Hello world';
|
||||
|
||||
const result = await client.mutation({
|
||||
createPostCard: {
|
||||
__args: { data: { name } },
|
||||
id: true,
|
||||
name: true,
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
return result;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
export const config: FunctionConfig = {
|
||||
universalIdentifier: '<function-uuid>',
|
||||
name: 'create-new-post-card',
|
||||
timeoutSeconds: 2,
|
||||
triggers: [
|
||||
// Public HTTP route trigger '/s/post-card/create'
|
||||
{
|
||||
universalIdentifier: '<route-trigger-uuid>',
|
||||
type: 'route',
|
||||
path: '/post-card/create',
|
||||
httpMethod: 'GET',
|
||||
isAuthRequired: false,
|
||||
},
|
||||
// Cron trigger (CRON pattern)
|
||||
{
|
||||
universalIdentifier: '<cron-trigger-uuid>',
|
||||
type: 'cron',
|
||||
pattern: '0 0 1 1 *',
|
||||
},
|
||||
// Database event trigger
|
||||
{
|
||||
universalIdentifier: '<db-trigger-uuid>',
|
||||
type: 'databaseEvent',
|
||||
eventName: 'person.created',
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Common trigger types:
|
||||
|
||||
* route: Exposes your function on an HTTP path and method **under the `/s/` endpoint**:
|
||||
|
||||
> e.g. `path: '/post-card/create',` -> call on `<APP_URL>/s/post-card/create`
|
||||
|
||||
* cron: Runs your function on a schedule using a CRON expression.
|
||||
* databaseEvent: Runs on workspace object lifecycle events
|
||||
|
||||
> e.g. `person.created`
|
||||
|
||||
You can create new functions in two ways:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Scaffolded**: Run `yarn create-entity --path <custom-path>` and choose the option to add a new function. This generates a starter file under `<custom-path>` with a `main` handler and a `config` block similar to the example above.
|
||||
* **Manual**: Create a new file and export `main` and `config` yourself, following the same pattern.
|
||||
|
||||
### Generated typed client
|
||||
|
||||
Run yarn generate to create a local typed client in generated/ based on your workspace schema. Use it in your functions:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
import Twenty from './generated';
|
||||
|
||||
const client = new Twenty();
|
||||
const { me } = await client.query({ me: { id: true, displayName: true } });
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The client is re-generated by `yarn generate`. Re-run after changing your objects and `yarn sync` or when onboarding to a new workspace.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Runtime credentials in serverless functions
|
||||
|
||||
When your function runs on Twenty, the platform injects credentials as environment variables before your code executes:
|
||||
|
||||
* `TWENTY_API_URL`: Base URL of the Twenty API your app targets.
|
||||
* `TWENTY_API_KEY`: Short‑lived key scoped to your application’s default function role.
|
||||
|
||||
Notes:
|
||||
|
||||
* You do not need to pass URL or API key to the generated client. It reads `TWENTY_API_URL` and `TWENTY_API_KEY` from process.env at runtime.
|
||||
* The API key’s permissions are determined by the role referenced in your `application.config.ts` via `functionRoleUniversalIdentifier`. This is the default role used by serverless functions of your application.
|
||||
* Applications can define roles to follow least‑privilege. Grant only the permissions your functions need, then point `functionRoleUniversalIdentifier` to that role’s universal identifier.
|
||||
|
||||
### Hello World example
|
||||
|
||||
Explore a minimal, end-to-end example that demonstrates objects, functions, and multiple triggers [here](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/tree/main/packages/twenty-apps/hello-world):
|
||||
|
||||
## Manual setup (without the scaffolder)
|
||||
|
||||
While we recommend using `create-twenty-app` for the best getting-started experience, you can also set up a project manually. Do not install the CLI globally. Instead, add `twenty-sdk` as a local dependency and wire scripts in your package.json:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash filename="Terminal"
|
||||
yarn add -D twenty-sdk
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then add scripts like these:
|
||||
|
||||
```json filename="package.json"
|
||||
{
|
||||
"scripts": {
|
||||
"auth": "twenty auth login",
|
||||
"generate": "twenty app generate",
|
||||
"dev": "twenty app dev",
|
||||
"sync": "twenty app sync",
|
||||
"uninstall": "twenty app uninstall",
|
||||
"logs": "twenty app logs",
|
||||
"create-entity": "twenty app add",
|
||||
"help": "twenty --help"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can run the same commands via Yarn, e.g. `yarn dev`, `yarn sync`, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
* Authentication errors: run `yarn auth` and ensure your API key has the required permissions.
|
||||
* Cannot connect to server: verify the API URL and that the Twenty server is reachable.
|
||||
* Types or client missing/outdated: run `yarn generate` and then `yarn dev`.
|
||||
* Dev mode not syncing: ensure `yarn dev` is running and that changes are not ignored by your environment.

Webhooks push data to your systems in real-time when events occur in Twenty — no polling required. Use them to keep external systems in sync, trigger automations, or send alerts.
|
||||
|
||||
## Create a Webhook
|
||||
|
||||
1. Go to **Settings → APIs & Webhooks → Webhooks**
|
||||
2. Click **+ Create webhook**
|
||||
3. Enter your webhook URL (must be publicly accessible)
|
||||
4. Click **Save**
|
||||
|
||||
The webhook activates immediately and starts sending notifications.
|
||||
|
||||
<VimeoEmbed videoId="928786708" title="Creating a webhook" />
|
||||
|
||||
### Manage Webhooks
|
||||
|
||||
**Edit**: Click the webhook → Update URL → **Save**
|
||||
|
||||
**Delete**: Click the webhook → **Delete** → Confirm
|
||||
|
||||
## Events
|
||||
|
||||
Twenty sends webhooks for these event types:
|
||||
|
||||
| Event | Example |
|
||||
| ------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| **Record Created** | `person.created`, `company.created`, `note.created` |
|
||||
| **Record Updated** | `person.updated`, `company.updated`, `opportunity.updated` |
|
||||
| **Record Deleted** | `person.deleted`, `company.deleted` |
|
||||
|
||||
All event types are sent to your webhook URL. Event filtering may be added in future releases.
|
||||
|
||||
## Payload Format
|
||||
|
||||
Each webhook sends an HTTP POST with a JSON body:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"event": "person.created",
|
||||
"data": {
|
||||
"id": "abc12345",
|
||||
"firstName": "Alice",
|
||||
"lastName": "Doe",
|
||||
"email": "alice@example.com",
|
||||
"createdAt": "2025-02-10T15:30:45Z",
|
||||
"createdBy": "user_123"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"timestamp": "2025-02-10T15:30:50Z"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
| Field | Description |
|
||||
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
|
||||
| `event` | What happened (e.g., `person.created`) |
|
||||
| `data` | The full record that was created/updated/deleted |
|
||||
| `timestamp` | When the event occurred (UTC) |
|
||||
|
||||
<Note>
|
||||
Respond with a **2xx HTTP status** (200-299) to acknowledge receipt. Non-2xx responses are logged as delivery failures.
|
||||
</Note>
|
||||
|
||||
## Webhook Validation
|
||||
|
||||
Twenty signs each webhook request for security. Validate signatures to ensure requests are authentic.
|
||||
|
||||
### Headers
|
||||
|
||||
| Header | Description |
|
||||
| ---------------------------- | --------------------- |
|
||||
| `X-Twenty-Webhook-Signature` | HMAC SHA256 signature |
|
||||
| `X-Twenty-Webhook-Timestamp` | Request timestamp |
|
||||
|
||||
### Validation Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. Get the timestamp from `X-Twenty-Webhook-Timestamp`
|
||||
2. Create the string: `{timestamp}:{JSON payload}`
|
||||
3. Compute HMAC SHA256 using your webhook secret
|
||||
4. Compare with `X-Twenty-Webhook-Signature`
|
||||
|
||||
### Example (Node.js)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const crypto = require("crypto");
|
||||
|
||||
const timestamp = req.headers["x-twenty-webhook-timestamp"];
|
||||
const payload = JSON.stringify(req.body);
|
||||
const secret = "your-webhook-secret";
|
||||
|
||||
const stringToSign = `${timestamp}:${payload}`;
|
||||
const expectedSignature = crypto
|
||||
.createHmac("sha256", secret)
|
||||
.update(stringToSign)
|
||||
.digest("hex");
|
||||
|
||||
const isValid = expectedSignature === req.headers["x-twenty-webhook-signature"];
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Webhooks vs Workflows
|
||||
|
||||
| Method | Direction | Use Case |
|
||||
| ---------------------------- | --------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| **Webhooks** | OUT | Automatically notify external systems of any record change |
|
||||
| **Workflow + HTTP Request** | OUT | Send data out with custom logic (filters, transformations) |
|
||||
| **Workflow Webhook Trigger** | IN | Receive data into Twenty from external systems |
|
||||
|
||||
