Log my Care Open API (1.100.0)

API for accessing Log my Care data. Most endpoints are read-only (GET); the Residents endpoint additionally supports creating and updating records (POST/PUT). Authenticate by exchanging your API key for a JWT token via POST /openapi/auth/token/exchange, then include the token in the Authorization: Bearer header.

Authentication

Token Exchange (Required): Exchange the API key for a short-lived JWT token (15 minutes) using POST /openapi/auth/token/exchange. This provides enhanced security by minimizing API key exposure.

All authenticated endpoints require a valid JWT token in the Authorization: Bearer header.
