For Agents

Create, query, and update members, activities, organizations, tasks, notes, tags, and automations inside a crowd.dev tenant.

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the crowd.dev API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the crowd.dev API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use crowd.dev API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Community Member Sync from External Sources

Maintain a unified view of community members by upserting them through POST /member and PUT /member/{id} from GitHub, Discord, and Slack ingestion pipelines. Teams use POST /member/query with filter expressions to pull members for outreach lists and to detect duplicates. The tenant-scoped base URL keeps multi-workspace deployments cleanly separated.

Create a crowd.dev member with GitHub username octocat and email octocat@example.com, then verify it appears in POST /member/query

Activity Stream Ingestion

Push every relevant community event into crowd.dev's activity stream by calling POST /activity with type, member ID, and source platform. Devrel teams use POST /activity/query to slice the stream by date, type, or member to surface trends and identify the most active contributors. Updates and deletes are available for correcting bad ingest.

Log a crowd.dev activity of type pull-request-merged for member ID m_42 with timestamp 2026-06-10T10:00:00Z

Automated Task Creation from High-Value Signals

Convert high-value community signals into follow-up tasks by calling POST /task with assignee and due-date, then querying open tasks via POST /task/query. Devrel and field-engineering teams use this to make sure no high-intent contributor gets dropped, and to keep follow-up evidence inside crowd.dev rather than a separate task tracker.

Create a crowd.dev task assigned to user u_7 with title 'Follow up on Stripe integration question' due in 3 days

AI Agent Community Insights

An AI agent surfaces a weekly summary of high-value community activity by querying crowd.dev through Jentic. The agent searches for the crowd_query_activities operation, executes against the team's vaulted bearer token, and joins the results with member and organization records. Jentic isolates the bearer token and tenant ID so the agent only ever holds a scoped capability.

Use the Jentic SDK to query crowd.dev activities for the last 7 days and group them by source platform and activity type

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Your crowd.dev bearer token and tenant id are stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. They never enter the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'query crowd.dev members' or 'log a community activity', and Jentic returns the matching crowd.dev operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using crowd.dev API through Jentic.

Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for crowd.dev API?

crowd.dev does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call crowd.dev API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started with Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer.

What authentication does the crowd.dev API use?

The crowd.dev API uses bearer-token authentication - clients send their token as Authorization: Bearer. Through Jentic, the bearer token is held encrypted in the vault and injected at request time so the raw token never reaches the agent.

Why does the base URL include a {tenantId}?

crowd.dev is multi-tenant, so every API call is scoped to a specific tenant via the path variable. You substitute your tenant ID into https://app.crowd.dev/api/tenant/{tenantId} so a single workspace can host multiple isolated communities.

How do I query members with filters through Jentic?

Search Jentic for 'query crowd.dev members', load the operation schema for POST /member/query, and execute with a filter expression. Jentic handles bearer-token injection and tenant ID configuration.

How many endpoints does the crowd.dev API expose?

Thirty-two endpoints with a consistent CRUD-plus-query shape across members, activities, organizations, tasks, notes, tags, and automations.

Can I configure automations through the API?

Yes. POST /automation creates an automation, GET /automation/{id} retrieves one, and PUT and DELETE /automation/{id} update or remove it, so the same automations you build in the UI can be managed programmatically.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the crowd.dev API?

Yes. Jentic One is self-hosted, so you run it and your own rules decide which crowd.dev operations and credentials the agent can use. Because crowd.dev carries the tenant ID in the server base path (/api/tenant/{tenantId}), a rule can pin the agent to a single tenant, and you choose exactly which operations it may call. That means read-and-query calls like POST /member/query or POST /activity/query can be allowed while writes such as POST /automation or organization changes stay out of reach unless you add them.
