Integrate with Amboss APIs. Authentication, GraphQL endpoints, code examples, and the official TypeScript SDK for Space, Rails, Magma, Reflex, and Payments.
Integrate with Amboss APIs: authentication, GraphQL endpoints, and code examples.
Amboss provides GraphQL APIs for all our products: Payments, Rails, Space, Magma, and Reflex. Every request needs an API key, and the endpoint depends on the product you're integrating.
The official Amboss TypeScript SDK is here. Send and receive payments, manage wallets, and verify webhooks with a fully typed client. Install it with pnpm add @ambosstech/payments.
Which endpoint do I use?
Pick the endpoint based on what you're building:
| If you want to... | Product | GraphQL Endpoint | Auth Header |
|---|---|---|---|
| Send and receive Lightning payments, manage wallets and webhooks | Payments | https://app.amboss.tech/graphql | x-api-key |
| Earn Bitcoin yield with a Lightning node | Rails | https://app.amboss.tech/graphql | x-api-key |
| Query Lightning Network data: nodes, channels, network stats | Space | https://api.amboss.space/graphql | Authorization: Bearer |
| Buy and sell Lightning channels (liquidity marketplace) | Magma | https://magma.amboss.tech/graphql | Authorization: Bearer |
| Screen counterparties for risk and compliance | Reflex | https://reflex.amboss.tech/graphql | Authorization: Bearer |
Payments and Rails share the same endpoint and dashboard at app.amboss.tech. They are one API surface: the same x-api-key works across both.
Moved from rails.amboss.tech: Rails and Payments now live at app.amboss.tech. Update any integrations still pointing at rails.amboss.tech to use https://app.amboss.tech/graphql.
