## OpenAPI

````yaml specs/ingestion.yml patch /1/sources/{sourceID}
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Ingestion API
  summary: >-
    The Ingestion API lets you connect third-party services and platforms with
    Algolia and schedule tasks to ingest your data
  description: >
    The Ingestion API powers the no-code [data
    connectors](https://dashboard.algolia.com/connectors).


    ## Base URLs


    Base URLs for the Ingestion API:


    - `https://data.us.algolia.com`

    - `https://data.eu.algolia.com`


    Use the URL that matches your [analytics
    region](https://dashboard.algolia.com/account/infrastructure/analytics).


    **All requests must use HTTPS.**


    ## Authentication


    Add these headers to authenticate requests:


    - `x-algolia-application-id`. Your Algolia application ID.

    - `x-algolia-api-key`. An API key with the necessary permissions to make the
    request.
      The required access control list (ACL) to make a request is listed in each endpoint's reference.

    You can find your application ID and API key in the [Algolia
    dashboard](https://dashboard.algolia.com/account/api-keys).


    ## Request format


    Request bodies must be JSON objects.


    ## Response status and errors


    Response bodies are JSON objects.


    Successful responses return `2xx` statuses. Client errors return `4xx`
    statuses. Server errors return `5xx` statuses.

    Error responses have a `message` property with more information.


    ## Version


    The current version of the Ingestion API is version 1, indicated by the
    `/1/` in each endpoint's URL.

    x-displayName: Destinations
    description: >
      Destinations are Algolia products or features where your data should be
      used, such as a search index or events.

      Algolia destinations require authentication with the `algolia` type.

      You can reference authentications by their ID when creating destinations.

      Sources are third-party platforms or services from where you want to
      ingest your data.

      Sources may require authentication. To interact with such sources, you can
      reference an authentication resource by its ID.
  - name: tasks
    x-displayName: Tasks
    description: >
      Tasks contain information how your data should be read from a source and
      stored in a destination.

      Tasks have _triggers_ which determine when the task should run.
