CALIBER REST API

Where the management API lives, when to integrate at the HTTP layer, and where the served OpenAPI documents fit.

The CALIBER management API is the raw HTTP contract exposed under /ajax-api/2.0/mlflow/caliber. Use it when you are integrating from a non-Python runtime, generating your own client, debugging traffic, or working with a route before the typed SDK wraps it.

This section documents the HTTP layer. If you are integrating from Python, start with the SDK guide and use the SDK API reference for resource classes and method signatures.

When to use the REST API directly

  • you are integrating from JavaScript, Go, Java, or a workflow engine instead of Python;
  • you want to generate a client from the served OpenAPI document;
  • you are debugging route behavior or comparing SDK behavior against wire-level requests;
  • you need an endpoint that exists on the server before the typed SDK has added a wrapper.

How this API documentation is organized

  • Authentication and conventions covers auth modes, headers, envelopes, pagination, request ids, and error shapes.
  • Resource catalog groups the route families by what developers actually build with.
  • HTTP reference maps the most important route families, representative operations, and the served OpenAPI entry points.

OpenAPI entry points

The management API serves its own OpenAPI document:

curl -s "$CALIBER_BASE_URL/ajax-api/2.0/mlflow/caliber/openapi.json" | jq '.info'

Workflow services also publish per-workflow OpenAPI once a service is enabled:

curl -s \
  "$CALIBER_BASE_URL/ajax-api/2.0/mlflow/caliber/services/$WORKFLOW_ID/openapi.json" \
  | jq '.paths'

Those two documents serve different purposes:

  • the management OpenAPI describes CALIBER's control-plane routes;
  • the workflow-service OpenAPI describes the public invocation surface of one published workflow.
