Authentication
The Interchange API supports two authentication methods: OAuth for AI agent connectors and API keys for programmatic integrations.OAuth (Recommended for AI Agents)
When connecting through Claude Connectors or ChatGPT MCP Connectors, authentication is handled automatically via OAuth. Users log in with their Scope3 credentials and the agent receives a secure token.- No API keys to create or manage
- Tokens are scoped to the authenticated user
- Works with Claude.ai (Team/Enterprise), Claude Desktop, and ChatGPT
API Keys
For CLI tools (Claude Code, Cursor), custom agents, and direct REST API integrations, use an API key.Getting Your API Key
- Visit interchange.io/user-api-keys
- Sign up or log into your Scope3 account
- Generate a new API key for your integration
- Copy the key — it starts with
scope3_
API Key Format
Using Your API Key
Pass the key as a Bearer token in theAuthorization header:
- curl
- TypeScript
- Python
MCP Authentication
For AI agent integrations using the Model Context Protocol:- TypeScript

Versioning
REST and MCP endpoints come in two forms — pick based on whether you want to pin to a specific major version or auto-roll with the platform.| Form | Example | Behavior | When to use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Versioned (canonical) | /api/v2/buyer, /mcp/v2/buyer | Pinned to v2. Will keep serving v2 even after a future v3 ships. | Production integrations, SDKs, anywhere a breaking change would silently break you. |
| Unversioned (alias) | /api/buyer, /mcp/buyer | 308-redirects to whatever major version is currently stable (today: v2). Auto-rolls when a new major is cut. | Quick demos, links you don’t want to update, or environments where you actively want to follow latest. |
/api/v2/storefront vs /api/storefront, /mcp/v2/storefront vs /mcp/storefront).
The Base URLs table above lists the versioned form because it’s what we recommend for any integration you don’t plan to revisit on every major release.
