What is a safety briefing API?

A safety briefing API lets another authorized software system create, publish, retrieve and analyze safety briefing records programmatically.

Can Arkvos publish a briefing from another platform?

Yes. Arkvos API v1 supports creating and publishing a briefing with an organization-scoped API key and optional idempotency key.

Can the Arkvos API retrieve proof workers attended?

Authorized callers can retrieve briefing acknowledgments and check-in records with worker, site, time, geofence and verification-method context. Selfie image data is not exposed through the public API.

Arkvos API v1

Safety Briefing API

Publish safety briefings from another system, track their lifecycle and retrieve the verification records generated when workers participate.

Publish from your system

Create standard or mandatory safety briefings without copying content into two platforms.

Retrieve verification

Read acknowledgments and check-ins after a briefing is run.

Multi-site workflows

Target one site or multiple sites while every API call stays scoped to one Arkvos customer.

Privacy-conscious

QR secrets and worker selfie image blobs are intentionally excluded from the public API.

Why use a safety briefing API?

Safety teams often already use project-management, HR, staffing, learning-management or EHS software. Requiring them to re-enter every briefing creates duplicate work. The Arkvos API lets the existing system remain the place where the briefing originates while Arkvos becomes the verification layer that records participation.

Typical workflow

Your software determines that a safety briefing needs to be delivered.
It calls POST /api/v1/briefings with the title, content, sites and due date.
The briefing appears in the customer’s Arkvos environment.
Supervisors run the briefing using the normal Arkvos workflow.
Your software reads the resulting acknowledgments and verified check-ins through API v1.

Create a briefing

curl -X POST https://arkvos.com/api/v1/briefings \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $ARKVOS_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -H "Idempotency-Key: site12-2026-08-25" \ -d '{"title":"Morning safety briefing","content":"Review today’s hazards and controls.","mandatory":true,"publish":true}'

Who uses this?

Common integration targets include contractor management systems, EHS platforms, learning systems, staffing software, internal operations portals and reporting pipelines. The API is available to active paid Arkvos organizations; an Owner or Admin creates a revocable organization-scoped key in Settings → Integrations.
