Paprika doesn't have their API documented, so this is me reverse-engineering it from an Android device
HTTP BASIC auth (emoji shrug), and send a GET to:
- https://www.paprikaapp.com/api/v1/sync/bookmarks/
- https://www.paprikaapp.com/api/v1/sync/groceries/
- https://www.paprikaapp.com/api/v1/sync/categories/
- https://www.paprikaapp.com/api/v1/sync/recipes/
- https://www.paprikaapp.com/api/v1/sync/meals/
Syncing a particular recipe:
API uses BASIC auth; whatever your cloud sync is
Send a POST to: https://www.paprikaapp.com/api/v1/sync/recipe/{uid-of-recipe}/
With your recipe in a multipart/form-data, in the data param. Example:
{
"uid": "ccb42915-5fe9-425d-98da-c1ffbe420159",
"name": "Test",

}
The data param should be gzip-encoded
Still figuring this out 🤷♂️
Appears to be a POST to https://www.paprikaapp.com/api/v1/sync/recipes/, no auth
Sends a multipart/form-data with three fields:
- url:
text/plain(e.g. https://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/homemade-whole-grain-pancake-mix-recipe) - styles:
file(filenamestyles.json) - gzippeed JSON of all the styles on the page? - html:
file(filenamerecipe.html) - gzipped HTML from the page
Returns a text-plain (actually JSON) with a structure like:

"difficulty": "",
"directions": "To make the mix: Grind the oats in a food processor until they're chopped fine, but not a
powder.\n\nPut the flour, oats, and all other dry ingredients into a mixer with a paddle. Mix on slow speed, and
drizzle the vegetable oil into the bowl slowly while the mixer is running.\n\nStore in an airtight container for up
to two weeks at room temperature, or indefinitely in the refrigerator or freezer.\n\nTo make pancakes: Whisk
together 1 cup of mix, 1 cup of buttermilk (or a combination of half plain yogurt and half milk; or 3/4 cup liquid
whey), and 1 large egg. Don't worry if it seems thin at first: the oats will soak up the milk, and the mix will
thicken a bit as it stands.\n\nLet the batter stand for at least 20 minutes before cooking.\n\nHeat a lightly
greased griddle to 350°F (if you've got a griddle with a temperature setting; if not, medium-hot will do).\n\nDrop
the batter onto it in 1/4-cupfuls (a jumbo cookie scoop works well here) to make a 4\" diameter pancake. If you
have English muffin rings, use them; they make a perfectly round, evenly thick pancake.\n\nWhen the edges look dry
and bubbles come to the surface without breaking (after about 2 minutes, if your griddle is the correct
temperature), turn the pancake over to finish cooking on the second side, which will take about 2 minutes.\n\nServe
pancakes immediately, or stack and hold in a warm oven.\n\nYield: a batch using 1 cup of the mix will make about 5
to 8 pancakes, depending on size.",
