# mobieusCore API — mobieusHelp

The Help surface of the public REST API. Read + write tickets,
queues, agents, canned responses, tags, help topics, notification
preferences, audit log. Plus 8 AI hooks for reply suggestions,
summary, sentiment, categorization, resolution prediction,
knowledge-gap detection, audit Q&A, and canned-response generation.

The ticket + queue + agent + reply endpoints landed in API 1.2.0;
canned responses, tags, help topics, notification prefs, audit, and
AI hooks were added in **1.3.0** (2026-06-02).

## Scopes

| Scope | Grants |
|---|---|
| `helpdesk:read`  | List + read tickets, queues, agents, canned responses, tags, help topics, notification prefs, ticket messages. Also read-only AI hooks (summary, sentiment, resolution-predict). |
| `helpdesk:write` | Create + update tickets, reply, change status, manage canned responses + tags. Write-side AI hooks (reply-suggest, categorize, canned-generate). |
| `helpdesk:admin` | Notification-prefs set, audit log, admin-only AI hooks (knowledge-gaps, audit-qa). |

## Quick start

```bash
# Create a tag
curl -X POST https://YOUR-TENANT.mobieus.io/api/v1/helpdesk/tags \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer mc_live_...' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"slug":"refund","name":"Refund","color":"#dc2626"}'

# Have AI summarize an open ticket
curl -X POST https://YOUR-TENANT.mobieus.io/api/v1/helpdesk/ai/summary \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer mc_live_...' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"ticket_id":1234}'
```

## Tickets, queues, agents (1.2.0, unchanged)

See the existing ticket / queue / agent / reply endpoints in
[`api-overview`](api-overview). Nothing about those endpoints
changed in 1.3.0 — they're already comprehensive.

## Canned responses (1.3.0)

| Method | Path | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| `GET`  | `/api/v1/helpdesk/canned-responses`             | `helpdesk:read` |
| `GET`  | `/api/v1/helpdesk/canned-responses/{id}`        | `helpdesk:read` |
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/canned-responses`             | `helpdesk:write` |
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/canned-responses/{id}`        | `helpdesk:write` |
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/canned-responses/{id}/delete` | `helpdesk:write` |

Body for create:

```json
{
  "slug": "refund-policy",
  "title": "Refund policy",
  "body_md": "Hi {{requester.first_name}},\n\nOur refund policy is 14 days. {{ticket.reference}} is within that window.\n\n— Support",
  "queue_id": null,
  "is_active": true,
  "sort_order": 100
}
```

Placeholders are Mustache-style; the agent reply composer
substitutes at insert time.

## Tags (1.3.0)

| `GET`  | `/api/v1/helpdesk/tags`               | `helpdesk:read` | List. |
| `GET`  | `/api/v1/helpdesk/tags/{id}`          | `helpdesk:read` | Get. |
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/tags`               | `helpdesk:write` | Create. |
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/tags/{id}`          | `helpdesk:write` | Update. |
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/tags/{id}/delete`   | `helpdesk:write` | Delete (also removes from every ticket). |

## Help topics (read-only, 1.3.0)

| `GET` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/help-topics` | `helpdesk:read` | List active topics with name, slug, queue_id. |

CRUD for help topics lives in the admin UI — topics carry custom-
field definitions that don't translate cleanly to a simple REST body.

## Notification preferences (1.3.0)

| `GET`  | `/api/v1/helpdesk/notification-prefs?scope=tenant_default&scope_id=0` | `helpdesk:read` |
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/notification-prefs` | `helpdesk:admin` |

Scopes: `tenant_default` / `agent` / `requester`. Body for set:

```json
{
  "scope": "tenant_default",
  "scope_id": 0,
  "event_key": "ticket.created",
  "channel": "email",
  "enabled": true
}
```

## Audit log (1.3.0)

| `GET` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/audit?event_key=&actor_kind=&cursor=&limit=` | `helpdesk:admin` |

Returns up to 200 events per page (default 50). `event_key` filters by
event type; `actor_kind` is `agent` / `requester` / `system` / `api`.

## AI hooks (1.3.0, BYOK Anthropic)

All 8 hooks route through the existing mobieusAI BYOK infrastructure
— same Anthropic key your tenant already configured for Community
Manager. If no key is set, every hook returns `{"ok": false, "error":
"gate_blocked"}` (HTTP 200, JSON envelope, no 500).

### Operator-facing hooks

| Method | Path | Scope | Returns |
|---|---|---|---|
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/ai/reply-suggest`       | `helpdesk:write` | `ok + suggestions[]` (3 reply drafts) |
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/ai/summary`             | `helpdesk:read`  | `ok + text` (Problem / Tried / Done / Next-step) |
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/ai/categorize`          | `helpdesk:write` | `ok + data { help_topic_id, queue_id, confidence, reasoning }` |
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/ai/sentiment`           | `helpdesk:read`  | `ok + data { overall, confidence, signals[] }` |
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/ai/resolution-predict`  | `helpdesk:read`  | `ok + data { eta_hours, risk, next_action, blockers[] }` |
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/ai/canned-generate`     | `helpdesk:write` | `ok + text` (a canned-response template from a one-line intent) |

All take `{"ticket_id": ID}` body except `canned-generate` which takes
`{"intent": "explain refund policy"}`.

### Admin-only hooks

| `GET`  | `/api/v1/helpdesk/ai/knowledge-gaps?days=30` | `helpdesk:admin` | `ok + data.gaps[]` — clusters of repeated unresolved questions across the last N days of tickets (mobieusKnow article candidates). |
| `POST` | `/api/v1/helpdesk/ai/audit-qa`               | `helpdesk:admin` | `ok + text` — answers a question about the last 200 audit events with event-id citations. Body: `{"question": "..."}`. |

### Sentiment example

```bash
curl -X POST https://YOUR-TENANT.mobieus.io/api/v1/helpdesk/ai/sentiment \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer mc_live_...' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"ticket_id":1234}'
```

```json
{
  "ok": true,
  "data": {
    "overall": "frustrated",
    "confidence": 0.82,
    "signals": ["second follow-up", "wait time mentioned", "all-caps emphasis"]
  },
  "usage": { "prompt_tokens": 412, "completion_tokens": 87, "model": "claude-haiku-4-5-20251001" }
}
```

`usage` is logged to `ai_feature_usage` for the admin AI dashboard.

## Errors

The AI hooks never throw 500 on a failed AI call — they always
return JSON with `ok: false` and an `error` code:

| Error | When |
|---|---|
| `no_key`         | Tenant hasn't configured an Anthropic key. |
| `gate_blocked`   | AIFeatureGate rejected the call (plan / feature flag / spend cap / rate limit). |
| `ticket_not_found` | The `ticket_id` doesn't exist. |
| `no_requester_text` | Sentiment hook ran on a ticket with no requester messages yet. |
| `malformed_json` | The model returned non-JSON for a structured hook. Rare; retry. |

## What's not in 1.3.0

- Rules engine CRUD via API (admin UI only for now).
- SLA-plan + business-hours calendar CRUD via API.
- Bulk ticket operations (close-all, reassign-all).
- Custom-field schema CRUD via API.
