How to access the API
Use Public API V3 for new integrations and agent work.- Confirm the user has access to the relevant TextMine organization, team, Vault, provider, or workflow.
- Create or request an API credential through the TextMine admin/developer access flow for that organization.
- Store the credential as an environment variable such as
TEXTMINE_API_KEYor in the secret store for the agent client. - Send the credential as a bearer token on API requests.
- Use the operation IDs, request schemas, and response schemas from the API reference.
- Poll asynchronous operations after uploads, provider imports, report generation, workflow runs, document reprocessing, and exports.
Client setup guides
The developer hub has setup pages for common agent clients:- Codex MCP Setup
- Claude MCP Setup
- Cursor and Windsurf MCP Setup
- ChatGPT and OpenAI MCP Setup
- Copilot Studio Setup
MCP access
Use MCP when an agent client should discover and call TextMine tools from documentation or from an MCP-compatible tool surface.| MCP surface | Use it for |
|---|---|
| TextMine MCP server | TextMine-hosted tools backed by Public API V3. Use this for product actions where TextMine exposes an MCP tool directly. |
| ReadMe MCP endpoint | Documentation-backed API discovery and execution from developers.textmine.com/mcp. |
| Workbench MCP providers | In-app provider scan/import flows that let Workbench browse external repositories and import files into a Workbench session. |
How to choose the right layer
Use Mintlify when the question is:- What is Vault, Legislate, Workbench, Workflows, Playbooks, Records, Agents, Scribe, or Integrations?
- What should users do in the app?
- How do product areas relate to each other?
- Which screenshots, release notes, and user workflows explain the current feature?
- Which Public API V3 endpoint should I call?
- What is the exact request or response schema?
- Which operation ID should an agent use?
- How do I connect an MCP-compatible client?
- How do I safely execute provider import, report generation, workflow creation, metadata validation, records, or exports?
API-backed agent pattern
For API-backed work, agents should follow this pattern:- Read For agents for product routing.
- Read the developer hub For Agents page for API execution rules.
- Use Public API V3 operation IDs from the API reference.
- Discover IDs before mutating data.
- Ask for confirmation before destructive or broad actions.
- Keep secrets out of logs, prompts, screenshots, commits, and docs.
