Rate limit: 180 requests/minute per IP
Docs: https://api-docs.syncromsp.com/
Implementation
When invoked, use the Syncro REST API via curl. All requests include ?api_key=<key> as query parameter (NOT in header — Syncro uses query param auth).
Get API key
API_KEY=$(bash D:/vault/scripts/vault.sh get-field msp-tools/syncro.sops.yaml credentials.credential)
BASE="https://computerguru.syncromsp.com/api/v1"
If vault.sh get-field fails (yq not installed), fall back to:
API_KEY=$(sops -d D:/vault/msp-tools/syncro.sops.yaml | python -c "import sys,yaml; print(yaml.safe_load(sys.stdin)['credentials']['credential'])")
