# Tyk Identity Broker API

> Reference documentation for the Tyk Identity Broker (TIB) REST API, covering endpoints to create, update, delete, and list TIB profiles.

[Download Swagger](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TykTechnologies/tyk-docs/refs/heads/production/swagger/5.16/identity-broker-swagger.yml)

The Tyk Identity Broker API allows TIB profiles to be created, updated, deleted, and listed programmatically. All requests require an `Authorization` header whose value matches the `Secret` field in `tib.conf`.

The interactive endpoint documentation is available in the sidebar below.

## Embedded TIB

**Tyk Dashboard (from v3.0):** Profile management endpoints are available via the Tyk Dashboard API on the `/api/tib/` prefix. For example, the standalone TIB endpoint `/api/profiles/{id}` maps to `/api/tib/profiles/{id}` on the Tyk Dashboard API. See the [Tyk Dashboard API reference](https://tyk.io/docs/tyk-dashboard-api.md) for the full Dashboard API documentation.

**Tyk Developer Portal (from v1.12.0):** Profile management is available through the Portal UI under **Settings > SSO Profiles**. The Portal does not expose TIB profile management via a separate API endpoint.
