Requests can be made to the Tina Content API with Read Only Tokens. In the majority of cases, these requests are made using the Tina client, however you can also hit the API directly.

Making requests with `curl` and `fetch`

NOTE: for most cases the tina client can be used and it is not necessary to use fetch directly

The Content API endpoint is https://content.tinajs.io/<TinaGraphQLVersion>/content/<myClientId>/github/<myBranch>. The token can be passed by including a X-API-KEY custom HTTP header with the token as the value.

Where myClientId is the client id of your project and myBranch is the branch you want to query.

TinaGraphQLVersion is the version of @tinacms/graphql you are using. You can find this by running yarn list @tinacms/graphql in your project. Use only the "major"."minor" values for the TinaGraphQLVersion. So, if using version 1.4.17, the TinaGraphQLVersion would be 1.4.

Here is an example curl request that will query the Content API for the list of collections:

Curl

curl --location --request POST 'https://content.tinajs.io/<TinaGraphQLVersion>/content/<ClientId>/github/main' \
--header 'X-API-KEY: <Your API KEY>' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{"query":"{\n        collections{\n            name\n        }\n}","variables":{}}'

Fetch

var myHeaders = new Headers()
myHeaders.append('X-API-KEY', '5f47d1d1c89755aba3b54684dd25f580ec6bb0d3')
myHeaders.append('Content-Type', 'application/json')

var graphql = JSON.stringify({
  query: '{\n        collections{\n            name\n        }\n}',
  variables: {},
})
var requestOptions = {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: myHeaders,
  body: graphql,
  redirect: 'follow',
}

fetch(
  'https://content.tinajs.io/<TinaGraphQLVersion>/content/<ClientId>/github/main',
  requestOptions
)
  .then((response) => response.text())
  .then((result) => console.log(result))
  .catch((error) => console.log('error', error))
