Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Suggestions, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fvtex.local%2Fsuggestions" | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fvtex.local%2Fsuggestions" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

GET STARTED
Patterns agents use Suggestions API for, with concrete tasks.
★ E-Commerce Operations
Use the Suggestions to perform e commerce operations programmatically. The API provides 16 endpoints covering core functionality including get autoapprove status in account settings, activate autoapprove in marketplace's account, get account's approval settings.
Call GET /suggestions/configuration/autoapproval/toggle to get autoapprove status in account settings
Automated Get suggestions Management
Automate get suggestions operations by combining multiple Suggestions endpoints. Agents can activate autoapprove in marketplace's account and then get account's approval settings in a single workflow.
Call PUT /suggestions/configuration/autoapproval/toggle to activate autoapprove in marketplace's account, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Suggestions endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'get autoapprove status in account settings', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials
16 endpoints — the **marketplace api** enables marketplaces and sellers hosted on vtex to perform their collaborative operations.

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring the VTEX Suggestions API by hand means pairing an App Key with an App Token in the X-VTEX-API-AppKey and X-VTEX-API-AppToken headers, and templating the api.vtex.com/{accountName} host into every call. Through Jentic you install once, import Suggestions from the API Directory, store the App Key and App Token once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
The Suggestions API puts the seller id in the URL path (/suggestions/configuration/seller/{sellerId}), so a rule can pin your agent to one seller's configuration. You choose the operations it may call, so writes like toggling auto-approval are not included unless you add them.
Credential isolation
Your VTEX App Key and App Token are stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. They never enter the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'get the auto-approval toggle status' or 'read a seller's suggestion configuration', and Jentic returns the matching Suggestions operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Specific to using Suggestions API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Suggestions use?
The Suggestions uses an API key passed in the `X-VTEX-API-AppKey` header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I get autoapprove status in account settings with the Suggestions?
Yes. Use the GET /suggestions/configuration/autoapproval/toggle endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Suggestions?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I get autoapprove status in account settings through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'get autoapprove status in account settings'. Jentic returns the matching Suggestions operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Suggestions have?
The Suggestions exposes 16 endpoints covering get suggestions, manage suggestions, get versions operations.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Suggestions API?
Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which Suggestions operations and credentials the agent may use. The seller id sits in the URL path, as in GET /suggestions/configuration/seller/{sellerId}, so you can pin the agent to a single seller's configuration. You also choose the specific operations it may call, so write actions like PUT /suggestions/configuration/autoapproval/toggle stay out of reach unless you explicitly add them.
