Generate a LinkedIn post asynchronously

POST/posts/generations

Kick off an AI-driven post generation. The handler validates input, reserves AI-spend capacity, enqueues an async job, and returns a Job envelope. The customer polls GET /v1/jobs/{jobId} until status transitions to DONE or FAILED.

Cost: counts against the daily AI-spend cap (~5¢ per call, reconciled with provider actuals after the job runs).

wait_for_completion_ms is a soft hint — the server polls for up to that many milliseconds (capped at 25 000 ms) before returning. The response shape is identical regardless; sync-wait callers receive a DONE status when lucky and a RUNNING/QUEUED status otherwise.

Authorization

  • Authorizationstringrequired

    Bearer token in the Authorization header.

    Pass Authorization: Bearer scripe_sk_live_<...> (or scripe_sk_test_<...> for test keys) on every request. Keys are scoped to a single workspace and can be revoked from the Scripe dashboard.

    The same header also accepts an OAuth 2.1 access token (scripe_oat_*); both credentials share one scope vocabulary and every operation below documents the scope it requires. An API key can hold every scope named on this surface except webhooks:manage, which is grantable to OAuth tokens only today — the webhook-endpoint operations answer 403 scope_missing to every API key. Operations that name no scope accept any valid token of the workspace.

Header parameters

  • Scripe-Api-Versionstring

    Pin the API version. Format YYYY-MM-DD. Omit to receive the currently rolling default. Unknown versions return 400 version_unsupported.

  • Idempotency-Keystring

    Opaque string (1–64 chars, [A-Za-z0-9_-]) used to dedup retried writes. Within 24h of the first request, the same key

    • same body returns the original response (Idempotent-Replayed: true). Same key + different body returns 409 idempotency_key_conflict.

    Strongly recommended for every write — see /docs/api/v1/idempotency.

Request bodyapplication/json

  • projectIdstringrequired
  • sourceobject | object | object | objectrequired

  • scheduledForstring <date-time> | null

    Validated when present (must parse, must be in the future), but it does NOT schedule the generated post — the job always writes a draft. Put the returned post on the calendar with PATCH /v1/posts/{postId} once it exists.

  • optionsobject

    Optional steering hints. The worker already loads the project's tone-of-voice profile, voice samples, content pillars, and KB — most callers should leave this empty and put any extra steering into source.text. An idea source fills contentType from the card's pillar when this omits it.

  • wait_for_completion_msinteger

    Soft hint — server polls for up to this many ms before returning. Capped at 25 000 ms. Larger values are silently clamped.

Responses

  • 200
