Enterprise The Standards API provides programmatic access to your project information and brand guidelines for service integrations and AI agents.
This feature is currently in preview. To request early access before the full release, contact [email protected]
The API is protected with OAuth 2.0 to ensure your data is only available to individuals or services that have been granted access. To get started, you will need an API key, which can be created from your workspace dashboard.

Create an API key

1

Open workspace settings

Sign in to your Standards workspace, navigate to the workspace settings page, and select the API tab.Workspace settings page with API tab selected showing the generate key button

Store the key information securely

After clicking Generate key, you will be shown a dialog with the Client ID and Client Secret. These will only be shown once, and cannot be retrieved once the dialog is closed to ensure they remain secure. Store these in a secure location following best practices for your company. Azure Key Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, or Google Cloud Secret Manager are commonly used for this purpose.Dialog showing the client id and client secret for the generated API key

Use the key to make API requests

The client id and secret can now be used to retrieve authorization tokens for making API requests.

Configuration

API key name

The name is only used as a label for the key when viewing it in the dashboard. It may be useful to select a name that describes how it will be used and share the name with the entry for the client secret in your secure storage.

Workspace scopes

If a scope is enabled, requests using this API key made to endpoints requiring the scope will be authorized. The scopes required for each endpoint can be found in the reference. Workspace scopes control access to workspace information.
  • settings.read Allows workspace information to be retrieved.
  • projects.read Allows projects in the workspace to be listed with basic information.

Project scopes

Project scopes control access to project information and content from published sites.
  • data.read Allows project information to be retrieved.
  • styles.read Allows styles to be listed along with basic information.
  • files.read Allows files to be listed along with basic information.
  • document.read Allows pages to be listed and page content to be retrieved.

Projects

Project scopes apply to all projects in the workspace by default. When at least one project scope is selected, a project picker will become available to allow restricting to a specific set of projects instead.
