Records refer to each other as { type, id, name } references; writes take IDs. Errors are { error: { code, message, details } }, where code names what went wrong and each operation lists the codes it can return. In a query string, write a timestamp's offset as Z or %2B, because a raw + arrives as a space. The MCP server at /mcp offers the same data as a smaller set of tools. servers: - url: https://api.parley.so/v1 security: - bearerAuth: [] tags: - name: Projects description: >- A project is a matter or case: it groups the files, notes, activity, and tasks for one engagement, and links to the accounts and contacts it involves. - name: Accounts description: >- An account is a client organization.
