Feature request: JSON export API

Help us improve Penpot Feature requests
1

Hi,

I’m currently in contact with the founder of the usability testing tool Quant-UX. Like Penpot, Quant-UX is open source and a very forward-thinking product. I would love to see these two tools work together.

To make this possible, I would need an API that allows exporting everything as JSON — similar to the Figma API. There is already an integration between Quant-UX and Figma, but I would strongly prefer to fully switch to Penpot instead.

An API like this would make it possible to build an integration between Quant-UX and Penpot and help strengthen the open-source ecosystem.

Thanks in advance for considering this!

This is actually already supported. Penpot has a public API available, and you can find the full documentation here: https://design.penpot.app/api/main/doc

When you start making requests to the API, just ensure that you are providing the correct Content-Type and Accept headers in your calls to ensure the data (like the JSON export you mentioned) is handled properly.
