About This Documentation

Welcome to Branch Developer Documentation. From this portal you can read reference docs and guides to using the Branch API.

This site is divided into two basic sections:

Guides

Here you can find topics walking you through how to use the Branch API, webhooks, and other features. To read the guides, select a topic from the menu at the left, or click the Guides button in the toolbar above if the menu is not visible.

API Reference

In the reference docs you can look up details about each Branch endpoint, in a presentation that uses the OpenAPI standard (formerly Swagger), and even try out API requests right from the reference documentation. This feature only works with the Branch API sandbox, and you will need your sandbox API key in order to use it. Click here to access the API Reference, or click the API Reference button in the toolbar above.

You can view and copy the Branch OpenAPI definition in JSON format by clicking here.
