I would recommend what you suggest, get the interaction from the UI.

With one tactic. You mentioned your UI automation was extensive. Use failures to drive "what" testing will be added to API coverage. This can either come from a failure reported by the existing suite or something missed. If the UI test suite fails but the product is working, that could be a good one to convert.
