Set Up Direct Access

Use Monid as an internal building block. Your backend calls Monid with a single API key; end users never see Monid or need their own account.

1. Create an API Key

Create an account at Monid dashboard, then generate an API key at the API key management page. Store it as a server-side secret.

Every Monid request should include an x-workspace-id header. List available workspaces with GET /v1/auth/workspaces.

2. Pick a Pattern

Pattern A: Full Discover / Inspect / Run

Best when your product (or internal agent) needs to pick tools dynamically.

POST /v1/discover

Search for endpoints in natural language.

POST /v1/inspect

Get the input schema, output shape, and price.

POST /v1/run

Execute an endpoint and get results.

Pattern B: Curated Endpoints Only

Best when you want a simple, fixed interface with predictable pricing. Pre-select the endpoints you care about, wrap them behind your own function or API, and call run directly. Browse available endpoints at monid.ai/tools to find the ones you want to expose.

// Example: an internal helper that only exposes one endpoint
async function runTool(input: Record<string, unknown>) {
  const res = await fetch("https://api.monid.ai/v1/run", {
    method: "POST",
    headers: {
      Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.MONID_API_KEY}`,
      "Content-Type": "application/json",
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      provider: "<provider>",
      endpoint: "<endpoint>",
      input,
    }),
  });
  return res.json();
}

3. Billing

All usage bills to your single Monid wallet with one invoice and no per-user setup. Charge your users however you like.
