Path ParametersExpand Collapse

id: string

Body ParametersJSONExpand Collapse

metadata: optional object { name, externalId, labels }

UpdateAccountResourceMetadata contains the user-provided fields for updating an account-scoped resource. Read-only fields (id, account_id, profile_id) are excluded since they are set by the server.

Human-readable name for the resource (e.g., “Production API Key”, “Staging Workspace”)

externalId: optional string

External ID for the resource (e.g., a workflow ID from an external system)

labels: optional map[string]

Arbitrary key-value pairs for categorization and filtering Examples: {“environment”: “production”, “team”: “platform”, “version”: “v2”}

spec: optional APIKeySpec { token, description, permissions, system }

Configuration for an API key.

token: optional string

The bearer token used to authenticate as this API key. Returned only on creation and rotation; subsequent reads omit this field.

description: optional string

Free-form description of what this API key is used for.

permissions: optional array of string

Permissions granted to this key. Each entry is a colon-separated verb:resource string (e.g. “manage:agents”). Currently has no enforced effect; reserved for future fine-grained authorization.

system: optional boolean

True when this key is managed by the system (e.g. the auto-provisioned global account key). System keys cannot be deleted but can be rotated.

updateMask: optional string

Fields to update.

formatfield-mask

ReturnsExpand Collapse

APIKey object { metadata, spec, info }

An API key for the account. Use workspace-association RPCs to grant the key access to specific workspaces; a key with zero workspaces is valid but cannot access workspace-scoped resources.

metadata: AccountResourceMetadata { id, accountId, name, 3 more }

AccountResourceMetadata is used to represent a resource that is associated to an account but not to a workspace.

id: string

Unique identifier for the resource (prefixed ULID, e.g., “apikey_01HXK…”)

accountId: string

Account this resource belongs to for multi-tenant isolation (prefixed ULID)

Human-readable name for the resource (e.g., “Customer Support Agent”, “Email Tool”) Required for resources that users interact with directly

profileId: string

externalId: optional string

External ID for the resource (e.g., a workflow ID from an external system)

labels: optional map[string]

Arbitrary key-value pairs for categorization and filtering Examples: {“environment”: “production”, “team”: “platform”, “version”: “v2”}

spec: APIKeySpec { token, description, permissions, system }

Configuration for an API key.

token: optional string

The bearer token used to authenticate as this API key. Returned only on creation and rotation; subsequent reads omit this field.

description: optional string

Free-form description of what this API key is used for.

permissions: optional array of string

Permissions granted to this key. Each entry is a colon-separated verb:resource string (e.g. “manage:agents”). Currently has no enforced effect; reserved for future fine-grained authorization.

system: optional boolean

True when this key is managed by the system (e.g. the auto-provisioned global account key). System keys cannot be deleted but can be rotated.

info: optional APIKeyInfo { createdBy, workspacesPreview, workspacesTotal }

createdBy: optional Profile { metadata, spec }

A profile identifies a user or non-human principal (such as an API key) at the account level. Profiles are account-scoped and can be granted access to multiple workspaces.

metadata: AccountResourceMetadata { id, accountId, name, 3 more }

AccountResourceMetadata is used to represent a resource that is associated to an account but not to a workspace.

id: string

Unique identifier for the resource (prefixed ULID, e.g., “apikey_01HXK…”)

accountId: string

Account this resource belongs to for multi-tenant isolation (prefixed ULID)

Human-readable name for the resource (e.g., “Customer Support Agent”, “Email Tool”) Required for resources that users interact with directly

profileId: string

externalId: optional string

External ID for the resource (e.g., a workflow ID from an external system)

labels: optional map[string]

Arbitrary key-value pairs for categorization and filtering Examples: {“environment”: “production”, “team”: “platform”, “version”: “v2”}

spec: ProfileSpec { type, email, name }

Configuration for a profile.

type: "PROFILE_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED" or "PROFILE_TYPE_USER" or "PROFILE_TYPE_API_KEY" or "PROFILE_TYPE_SYSTEM"

Whether this profile represents a human user, an API key, or a system principal.

formatenum

One of the following:

"PROFILE_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED"

"PROFILE_TYPE_USER"

"PROFILE_TYPE_API_KEY"

"PROFILE_TYPE_SYSTEM"

email: optional string

Email address of the profile. Required and unique within an account for user profiles.

Display name (e.g., “Bobby Tables”).

workspacesPreview: optional array of BareMetadata { id, name }

Up to a small number of workspaces this key has access to, intended for display (“Workspace 1, Workspace 2, and 4 more”). Use ListAPIKeyWorkspaces for the full paginated list.

id: optional string

Human-readable name of the referenced resource, populated by the server on reads for convenience. Absent on references to resources that do not have a name (e.g., objective tasks).

workspacesTotal: optional number

Total number of workspaces this key has access to.
