Fusion Help API

Name: fusion-help-api
Author: equinor

Use when a developer or admin needs to interact directly with the Fusion Help REST API — reading help content, building custom tooling, or automating content management.

When to use

Display help articles, FAQs, or release notes inside a Fusion app
Build custom CLI or automation to manage help content
Programmatically create, update, or delete help documentation
Search or suggest help content from an application
Understand Help API endpoints, authentication, or data models
Read help content for another system

When not to use

Using fhelp CLI to sync markdown docs → use fusion-help-docs
Modifying Fusion.Services.Help backend service code
General REST API questions unrelated to Help

Required inputs

Input	Required	Description
Use case	Yes	Reading content, managing content, or searching
App key	For scoped queries	The Fusion app key to read/manage help for
Target environment	Yes	`ci`, `fqa`, `tr`, or `fprd`
Auth context	Yes	User token (interactive) or service principal (automation)

Instructions

1. Discover the Help API base URL

Resolve URL dynamically or use known patterns:

Environment	Base URL
`ci`	`https://help.ci.api.fusion-dev.net`
`fqa`	`https://help.fqa.api.fusion-dev.net`
`fprd`	`https://help.api.fusion.equinor.com`

Dynamic discovery (recommended for production tooling):

GET https://discovery.fusion.equinor.com/service-registry/environments/{env}/services

Look for the service with key: "help" in the response. Use the uri field as the base URL.

2. Authentication

All endpoints require a valid Azure AD bearer token. Token audiences and code samples for frontend, backend, and CLI are in references/authentication.md.

Quick reference — token audiences:

Environment	Resource ID (audience)
`ci`, `fqa`, `tr`	`5a842df8-3238-415d-b168-9f16a6a6031b/.default`
`fprd`	`97978493-9777-4d48-b38a-67b0b9cd88d2/.default`

3. Authorization levels

Action	Who can do it
Read articles, FAQs, release notes, search	Any authenticated Fusion user
Create / Update / Delete articles, FAQs, release notes	App admin, trusted app, or `Fusion.Help.FullControl`
Upload assets (images)	App admin, trusted app, or `Fusion.Help.FullControl`
View changelog (global)	`Fusion.Help.FullControl` only
View changelog (per app)	App admin or `Fusion.Help.FullControl`

4. Call the API

Endpoints are versioned — include ?api-version=1.0. Resources: Articles, FAQs, Release Notes, Assets, Search/Suggest, Changelog.

For full CRUD details, request/response bodies, OData filters, and validation rules see references/api-endpoints.md.

For compact endpoint matrix and OData cheat sheet see references/api-quick-reference.md.

For response model schemas see references/response-models.md.

5. Integration patterns

Ready-to-use code samples (React component, release notes banner, FAQ search, C# backend automation, Python scripting) are in references/integration-patterns.md.

Expected output

Working code to authenticate and call the Help API
Correct endpoint URLs and query parameters for the use case
Understanding of response models and OData query options
For admin use cases: correct request bodies for create/update/delete
For integration patterns: sample code in the relevant language/framework

Safety & constraints

Read-only endpoints are safe for any authenticated user — no admin permissions needed
Write operations require app admin, trusted application, or Fusion.Help.FullControl
Deleted articles/FAQs/release notes are soft-deleted — slugs cannot be reused
sourceSystem tracks which tool created a record — mixing source systems for the same slug causes fhelp CLI to refuse updates (unless --no-validation is used)
Always test against ci before targeting fprd
Never hardcode bearer tokens — use DefaultAzureCredential or equivalent
Image uploads must be PNG; API processes them into WebP for serving
