Aprimo DAM API Quick Start

A downloadable Claude skill that gets an AI agent productive against the Aprimo DAM REST API in minutes. Install it, then ask the agent to help you authenticate, search for assets, retrieve metadata, and download files — the agent reads the skill's guidance and the bundled OpenAPI specification to answer accurately and generate working code.

Download the Aprimo DAM API Quick Start skill

What's in the package​

The download is a .zip containing a single skill folder, aprimo-dam-api-quickstart/, with:

  • SKILL.md — the skill instructions the agent reads: a 60-second setup, code examples, essential concepts, common tasks, and troubleshooting.
  • aprimo-dam-content-consumption-openapi.json — the DAM OpenAPI specification, so the agent can reference exact endpoints, parameters, and response shapes. This is the same spec published on the Digital Asset Management OpenAPI page.

What the skill covers​

  • Authentication — requesting an access token with the Client Credentials OAuth flow.
  • First calls — searching for records and reading the response.
  • Code examples — ready-to-adapt snippets in Python, JavaScript / TypeScript, and C#.
  • Essential concepts — select-headers for efficiently requesting related data (fields, files, thumbnails), response formats, and required headers.
  • Common tasks — getting asset metadata, downloading a file, and pointers for uploads.
  • Troubleshooting — handling 401, 429, and 400 responses.
  • Using the OpenAPI spec — importing into POSTMAN, generating SDKs, and IDE autocomplete.

Install and use it​

  1. Download the package above and unzip it.
  2. Install it by placing the aprimo-dam-api-quickstart/ folder into a Claude skills directory — for example .claude/skills/ in your project or home directory.
  3. Use it — start a session and ask questions such as:
    • "Show me how to get asset metadata in Python."
    • "What does the masterfile select-header do?"
    • "Generate a Node.js client for DAM asset search."

The agent loads the skill automatically when your request relates to the Aprimo DAM API.

tip

The skill points the agent at the AI-readable documentation at developers.aprimo.com/llms.txt for deeper reference, so it can pull in advanced patterns and detailed API behavior beyond what's bundled.
