Data model
Pets
An animal companion of the contact. Top-N species enum (dog/cat/bird/...) plus species_other for exotic cases. Optional breed, born_at, colour, notes.
pet200Fields
Per-field validation rules. Values that violate any constraint are rejected with 400 before they reach the database.
| Field | Type | Constraints |
|---|---|---|
| name | string | max length 80 |
| breed | string | max length 120 |
| color | string | max length 80 |
| notes | string | max length 2000 |
| born_at | string | max length 32 |

| species_other | string | max length 80 |
Mutability
Which fields can you send, and when? Anything without a marker is server-managed - sending it isn't an error, it's silently ignored.
| Field | Create | Patch |
|---|---|---|
| name | ||
| breed | ||
| color | ||
| notes | ||
| born_at | ||
| species | ||
| parent_id | ||
| species_other |
Fields marked create-only but not patchable are immutable after creation. Server-managed fields include id, timestamps, ownership, and status.
Filtering & sorting
Combinable on list endpoints. Repeating a filter key produces an IN clause; prefixing a sort key with - reverses direction. Example: ?status=open&status=blocked&sort=-created_at.

Endpoints
Each endpoint below lists its HTTP method, path, and the PAT scope it needs. Code samples cover curl, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Rust, Java, and WebSocket.
/xapi2/data/petpet:listList objects
Returns a paginated list of objects you can read. Default page size is 20; pass ?limit= to change (capped per type). Use ?after=<id> for keyset pagination on created_at-sorted lists, or ?offset= for offset paging.
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer pat_…" \"https://friendship-tracker.com/xapi2/data/pet?limit=20"
/xapi2/data/pet/{id}pet:readRead one
Returns the object by id. 404 if it does not exist or you cannot read it (the two cases are intentionally conflated).
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer pat_…" \https://friendship-tracker.com/xapi2/data/pet/OBJECT_ID
/xapi2/data/petpet:createCreate
Creates a new object. Body is a flat JSON dict of field values. Server-side fields (id, timestamps, ownership) are filled automatically; only fields listed below as creatable are read from the body.
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer pat_…" \-H "Content-Type: application/json" \-X POST https://friendship-tracker.com/xapi2/data/pet \-d '{"name": "…"}'
/xapi2/data/pet/{id}pet:updateUpdate
Partial update. Only fields included in the body are touched; everything else is preserved. Same allow-list as create, minus the fields that are immutable post-create.
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer pat_…" \-H "Content-Type: application/json" \-X PATCH https://friendship-tracker.com/xapi2/data/pet/OBJECT_ID \-d '{"name": "…"}'
/xapi2/data/pet/{id}pet:deleteDelete
Removes the object. It vanishes from every default list immediately and stops being returned by read / list.
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer pat_…" \-X DELETE https://friendship-tracker.com/xapi2/data/pet/OBJECT_ID
Use in CLI
The same endpoints are also exposed via the Friendship Tracker CLI. For scripts, CI, and bulk imports it's usually the faster path.
