Authentication

To start using the Qontext API:
  1. Sign up for Qontext to create your workspace
  2. Create a new Vault and direct to “Context Access”
  3. Add an API key in the “API Keys” section
  4. Include it in all API requests as a header:
cURL
--header 'X-API-Key: q_sk_***************'

​
Ingest your data

Bring company data into Qontext from any source. Qontext automatically processes, structures, and links it in your Context Vault. There are two ways to ingest the data:
  1. Ingest with Native Data Connections
  2. Manual Ingestion via API
Example: Ingesting unstructured data via API
cURL
curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.qontext.ai/v1/ingestion/unstructured \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --header 'X-API-Key: q_sk_***************' \
  --data '{
    "vaultId": "kg_681c0068-b589-4923-ac4a-73040fab7a45",
    "text": "Harry Potter met with Hermione Granger to discuss potential partnership opportunities."
  }'

​
Retrieve context

Once your data is ingested, you can retrieve context dynamically for any AI workflow or prompt. Qontext traverses your knowledge graph to return connected entities, their relationships, and relevant, connected information - going far beyond simple keyword similarity. There are two main ways to retrieve context:

Qontext API

Call the API directly to retrieve context.

MCPs

Connect Qontext to Claude or other AI tools via MCP.

Connect Qontext to Your AI Workflows via API

Qontext is built to live where your agents work. You can connect your Context Vaults using our native nodes (e.g. n8n, Make.com) or standard HTTP requests. Example: Retrieve Context
cURL
curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.qontext.ai/v1/retrieval \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --header 'X-API-Key: q_sk_***************' \
  --data '{

            ]
        },
        // More retrieved context would follow here
    ]
}
You can connect your vaults to any MCP-compatible client by adding the Qontext MCP server endpoint to your client’s configuration settings: https://api.qontext.ai/mcp.
