Secure API is the no-code REST API builder for Odoo that helps you connect mobile apps, third-party services, and external systems securely — without writing a single line of backend code.

Introducing Secure API for Odoo — Expose APIs Effortlessly

Secure API is a no-code REST API builder for Odoo that turns any model — standard or custom — into a fully functional, production-ready API in minutes. Point, click, publish. No Python, no controllers, no deployment scripts.

The Problem: Building Custom APIs is Painful

If you've ever tried to expose Odoo data to a mobile app or external system, you know the struggle:

  • Writing custom controllers for every endpoint
  • Managing authentication yourself (session tokens, API keys)
  • Handling security — CORS, field access control
  • Maintaining documentation that stays in sync with your code
  • Testing APIs requires external tools and complex setup

Sound familiar? You're not alone. Most Odoo developers spend days or weeks building API layers just to connect a mobile app or integrate with a third-party service.

The Solution: Secure API

Secure API solves all of these problems with a single, production-ready module:

Key Benefits

No Code Required — Select a model, choose fields, set permissions — your REST API is live in minutes — no need to restart Odoo server
Enterprise Security — OAuth 2.0, JWT, ID obfuscation, field-level access control
Instant Integration — Export to Postman or Swagger with one click
Production Monitoring — Built-in usage statistics and lifecycle management
Fully Documented — OpenAPI/Swagger compatible for seamless integration

Production Use Cases

Mobile App Integration

Connect your Odoo backend to iOS/Android apps without writing a single line of backend code:

Secure API - Mobile App Integration

Connect mobile apps to Odoo securely with OAuth 2.0

How it works:

  1. Install Secure API in your Odoo instance
  2. Select the res.partner model (or any custom model)
  3. Choose which fields to expose
  4. Set up OAuth 2.0 client credentials
  5. Export Postman collection for your mobile team
  6. Done — your mobile app can now read/write Odoo data securely

Real example: A retail company connected their Odoo inventory system to a customer-facing mobile app in under 2 hours using Secure API — compared to an estimated 3-5 days of custom development.

Third-Party Service Integration

Connect Odoo to external services like payment gateways, shipping providers, or CRM systems.

Example workflow:

# Authenticate with OAuth 2.0
curl -X POST \
  -F client_id=your_client_id \
  -F client_secret=your_secret \
  https://your-odoo.com/api/oauth2/token

# Use the access token
curl -X GET \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your_token" \
  https://your-odoo.com/api/sale.order/rest

Security Features That Matter

OAuth 2.0 & JWT Authentication

Industry-standard authentication with configurable token expiry and scoped permissions. Configure OAuth 2.0 & JWT Authentication clients from the Odoo UI entirely.

  • OAuth 2.0 Opaque Tokens — Industry-standard OAuth 2.0 authentication out of the box. Create client applications with unique client_id and client_secret credentials, configurable token expiry, and scoped permissions — all managed from the Odoo UI.
  • JWT (JSON Web Tokens) — For stateless authentication, use JWT tokens. Tokens are signed with configurable algorithms (HS256, HS384, HS512) and contain embedded payload data. No database lookup required for validation.

Field-Level Access Control

Control exactly which fields are exposed in API responses:

// Without field-level control
{"id": 42, "name": "John Doe", "salary": 5000, "ssn": "123-45-6789"}

// With field-level control (only name and email exposed)
{"id": 42, "name": "John Doe", "email": "john@example.com"}

ID Obfuscation

Protect sensitive database IDs from enumeration attacks:

// Without obfuscation
{"id": 42, "name": "John Doe"}

// With obfuscation enabled
{"id": "gY5kp8", "name": "John Doe"}

Usage Monitoring

Track API usage with built-in statistics:

Advanced Features for Production

One-Click Export

Export your APIs to Postman or Swagger/OpenAPI 3.0 with a single click:

Bulk Operations

Process multiple records in a single API request:

# Bulk create
POST /api/partners
[
    {"name": "Partner A", "email": "a@example.com"},
    {"name": "Partner B", "email": "b@example.com"}
]

# Bulk update
PATCH /api/partners
{"ids": ["abc123", "def456"], "active": false}

RPC Method Calls

Expose custom model methods as API endpoints — perfect for business logic:

# Call a custom method
POST /api/sale.order/rest/rpc
{
    "method": "action_confirm",
    "args": [["abc123"]]
}

Field Aliases

Rename fields in API requests/responses without modifying the model:

// Database field: partner_id
// API alias: customer

POST /api/orders
{"customer": "gY5kp8", "order_total": 150.00}
