Please note, we are in the process of retiring the public api. The public api, as well as its documentation and playground, will remain available until July 28th, 2025. This change will not affect integration partners using our partner api.
If you're an Artsy partner gallery, reach out to your Artsy Liaison or contact our Support team for assistance.
Public API Documentation > Resources > Profiles
A public profile provides information about a partner or a user.
Retrieve profiles by following the profiles link from root.
curl -v "https://api.artsy.net/api/profiles" -H "X-XAPP-Token: XAPP_TOKEN"
The response is a paginated result with embedded profiles.
Users can retrieve a specific profile by ID by rendering the "profile" link template from root.
curl -v "https://api.artsy.net/api/profiles/{id}" -H "X-XAPP-Token: XAPP_TOKEN"
error: the server responded with status 404
