Benchling OAuth Scopes

OAuth 2.0 searched

Benchling uses OAuth 2.0 but publishes no discrete scopes — access is governed by the grant itself (e.g. client-credentials or role-based authorization) rather than per-scope consent.

Tokens are issued from /api/v2/token.

This index is generated from the provider’s OpenAPI security definitions (and, where available, its documented scope reference) and refreshes on every APIs.io network build. Browse every provider’s scopes at scopes.apis.io.

Benchling implements OAuth 2.0 but publishes no discrete scopes — access is governed by the grant itself (client-credentials or role-based authorization) rather than per-scope consent.

Benchling defines NO OAuth scopes — confirmed twice over. The clientCredentials flow declares an empty `scopes: {}` object in both the v2 and the v3 OpenAPI, and the authentication docs state the model plainly: "anything a user has permission to do through the UI, the user's API Key or OIDC token or application's OAuth Bearer token has permission to do through the API." Authorization is membership-based, not scope-based.

  revocation:
    suspended_user: Suspending a user in Benchling invalidates their API key. Suspending them only in
      the IdP does NOT.
    archived_app: Archiving an app blocks API access; unarchiving restores it without a new client secret.
    note: If a suspended user held an app's credentials, rotate the app client secret — apps are not tied
      to a user and are not suspended with them.
