API Reference - Open.cx Docs

Authentication

All Partner API requests require a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Partner API keys are provisioned by the OpenCX team — they are separate from org-level API keys.

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_PARTNER_API_KEY

Base URL: https://api.open.cx

IP allow list

Partner API endpoints support IP-level access control. When an allow list is configured on your partner account, requests from IPs not in the list are rejected with 403 Forbidden — even with a valid API key. All traffic passes through Cloudflare, which forwards the real client IP in the X-Forwarded-For header. The backend extracts and validates this IP on every request.

IP allow lists are configured by the OpenCX team during onboarding. Contact us to add, update, or remove IPs. When no allow list is set, requests are accepted from any IP (token-only authentication).

Security layers

Layer	What it does
Bearer token	Every request must include a valid partner API JWT. Revoked or missing keys return `401`.
IP allow list	When configured, only requests from whitelisted IPs are accepted. Others get `403`.
Partner active check	Inactive partner accounts are blocked at the auth layer (`401`).
Rate limiting	100 req/min per partner globally, plus per-endpoint limits.
Org ownership	All org-scoped endpoints verify the org belongs to the calling partner (`403` otherwise).

Create Org

Create a new organization for one of your customers.

POST /partner/v1/orgs

Request body

Field	Type	Required	Description
`name`	string	Yes	Display name for the org.
`external_id`	string	No	Your internal ID for this customer. Must be unique per partner — duplicates return `409`.
`website`	string	No	Customer’s website URL.
`language`	string	No	Default language code (e.g. `"en"`, `"es"`, `"de"`). Defaults to `"en"`.
`ai_instructions`	string	No	The AI profile — system prompt that defines the agent’s personality, knowledge scope, and behavior. Overrides your partner-level default if set.
`integrations`	object	No	Auto-connect integrations during creation. See below.

Integrations

Pass credentials in the integrations object to auto-connect supported third-party integrations during org creation. Credentials are validated against the live third-party API — invalid credentials cause the request to fail with a 400. Each integration has its own shape under its own key. Some integrations accept either a single object (for one connection) or an array (for multiple connections — different locations, brands, or currencies). When passing an array, each entry should include a name that the AI uses in conversations to disambiguate between connections. Single connection (object form):

{
  "integrations": {
    "example_integration": {
      "name": "Primary",
      "app_key": "...",
      "user_key": "..."
    }
  }
}

Multiple connections (array form):

{
  "integrations": {
    "example_integration": [
      { "name": "Account A", "app_key": "...", "user_key": "..." },
      { "name": "Account B", "app_key": "...", "user_key": "..." }
    ]
  }
}

Supported integration keys and their per-integration field shapes are documented on each integration’s page. This section will expand as more integrations become available via the provisioning API. For integrations not yet supported here, use the org-level dashboard or API after creation.

  }'

List Orgs

List all organizations created by your partner account.

GET /partner/v1/orgs

Query parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
`limit`	number	50	Number of orgs to return (1–100).
`offset`	number	0	Number of orgs to skip (for pagination).

Response

200 OK

    {
      "id": "a1b2c3d4-...",

}

Examples

curl "https://api.open.cx/partner/v1/orgs?limit=10&offset=0" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_PARTNER_API_KEY"

Get Org by external_id

Look up a single org by the external_id you supplied at creation. Use this when you need to reverse-resolve from your internal identifier to the OpenCX org — for example, before creating an API key or generating a login link — without paginating through /orgs.

GET /partner/v1/orgs/by-external-id/:externalId

Path parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`externalId`	string	The `external_id` you set when calling `POST /partner/v1/orgs`. URL-encode it if it contains reserved characters.

Response

200 OK

{
  "id": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890",
  "name": "Acme Tours",
  "widget_token": "f8e7d6c5b4a39281...",
  "external_id": "customer-12345",
  "created_at": "2026-03-15T10:30:00.000Z"
}

Error responses

Status	Condition
`401`	Invalid or revoked partner API key.
`404`	No org with this `external_id` exists for your partner account.

Lookups are scoped to your partner account. If a different partner has an org with the same external_id, you will not see it — you only ever resolve orgs you created.

Examples

curl "https://api.open.cx/partner/v1/orgs/by-external-id/customer-12345" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_PARTNER_API_KEY"

Create Org API Key

Create an API key for a specific org. The returned key authenticates requests to the OpenCX Public API (crawling, training, contacts, etc).

POST /partner/v1/orgs/:orgId/api-keys

Request body

Field	Type	Required	Description
`name`	string	No	A label for the key (e.g. `"Production"`). Defaults to `"Default"`.

Response

201 Created

{
  "api_key_id": "key-uuid-here",
  "api_key": "eyJhbGciOi..."
}

Field	Type	Description
`api_key_id`	string	The key’s UUID.
`api_key`	string	The JWT API key. Use this as `Bearer` token for org-level API calls.

The full API key is only returned once — store it securely. If lost, create a new one.

Examples

curl -X POST https://api.open.cx/partner/v1/orgs/ORG_ID/api-keys \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_PARTNER_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "name": "Production" }'

Error responses

Status	Condition
`401`	Invalid or revoked partner API key.
`403`	Org does not belong to this partner.

Generate a short-lived, single-use URL that logs a user directly into the dashboard with the correct org context. No email, no forms, no org picker — the user lands in the dashboard immediately. Use this instead of invitations when you want frictionless access — for example, embedding a “Manage support” button in your own platform that takes the user straight into their dashboard.

POST /partner/v1/orgs/:orgId/login-links

Request body

Field	Type	Required	Description
`email`	string	Yes	Email address of the user. If no account exists, one is created automatically.
`name`	string	No	Display name for the user (used only when creating a new account). Defaults to the email prefix.
`role_ids`	string[]	No	Array of role UUIDs to assign when creating org membership. Ignored if user is already a member.

Response

201 Created

{
  "url": "https://platform.open.cx/partner-login?token=a1b2c3...",
  "expires_at": "2026-04-12T12:15:00.000Z"
}

Field	Type	Description
`url`	string	The login URL. Redirect the user’s browser here.
`expires_at`	string	ISO 8601 timestamp. The link expires 15 minutes after creation.

Login links are single-use — once a user visits the URL, it is consumed and cannot be reused. Generate a new link for each login session.

Security properties

Property	Value
Token entropy	256 bits (cryptographically random)
TTL	15 minutes
Single-use	Token deleted on first use
Rate limit	30 links/min per partner

Error responses

Status	Condition
`401`	Invalid or revoked partner API key.
`403`	Org does not belong to this partner.

Examples

curl -X POST https://api.open.cx/partner/v1/orgs/ORG_ID/login-links \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_PARTNER_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "email": "owner@acmetours.com", "name": "Jane Smith" }'

Idempotency

Use external_id to prevent duplicate orgs. If you call POST /partner/v1/orgs twice with the same external_id, the second call returns 409 Conflict. This makes it safe to retry org creation without risk of duplicates. Use GET /partner/v1/orgs/by-external-id/:externalId to resolve the existing org directly — no pagination required.

The external_id uniqueness constraint is scoped to your partner account. Different partners can use the same external_id values.
