Authorizations

Authorization
string
header
required

An API key minted at Settings › API & MCP. Send it as Authorization: Bearer <key>. A key carries its holder's own permissions, resolved on every call — revoking a membership closes the key's reach immediately. Keep it in an environment variable (GOOSY_API_KEY), never in a committed file.

Headers

x-request-id
string

Your own id for this request, echoed back and recorded on the audit trail. 1–128 characters from A–Z a–z 0–9 . _ : -, starting with a letter or digit; anything else is replaced by a generated id.

Maximum string length: 128

Body

application/json

required
Required string length: 1 - 120
opening_request
string
required
Required string length: 1 - 2000
workspace
string

Which workspace to run in — its slug. Omit to use your default. With more than one reachable workspace and no default, the call is refused and the choices are listed.

Minimum string length: 1

Response

The call was admitted and dispatched. ok says whether the tool succeeded — a refusal the tool itself produced is still a 200, exactly as it is a successful JSON-RPC result over MCP.

The tool ran and answered.

ok
boolean
required
board_id
string
required
board_name
string
required
request_waiting
boolean
required

Always true: the opening request waits, unsent, in the board's composer — nothing is generated until a member sends it.

open_path
string
required

The board's path in the app, carrying the opening request: whoever opens it lands on the board with the request waiting, unsent, in its composer.

workspace
string
required

The slug of the workspace this call ran in.

working_in
object
required

Which workspace this call ran in, and how that was decided. Present on every workspace-scoped result.
