# Bynder **Canonical:** https://apis.io/providers/bynder/ **Website:** https://www.bynder.com **APIs profiled:** 34 Bynder is a cloud-based digital asset management (DAM) platform used to store, organize, distribute and analyze brand and marketing assets. Its REST API is not one service but a federation of them behind each customer's own portal domain: the /api/v4 asset bank (assets, collections, metaproperties, brands, tags, smart filters, users and security profiles), an /api/1 taxonomy and content-access layer, /v6 OAuth 2.0 authorization, /v7 upload, webhooks and antivirus services, /api/workflow campaigns and jobs, and /api/store Brandstore ordering. Bynder publishes 34 OpenAPI 3.1 definitions covering 156 operations through its own API registry, a dated changelog, a documentation llms.txt, first-party SDKs for JavaScript, Python, PHP, Java and C#, and an embeddable asset-picker component. Authentication is OAuth 2.0 with JWT bearer tokens, layered on top of named security roles that gate operations independently of scope. ## Kin Score — 60.0 / 100 (strong) Scored 2026-08-21 under rubric 0.12.0.
