Creating an idea places nothing on the calendar and never creates a post. Honours `Idempotency-Key` for 24h dedup — see `/docs/api/v1/idempotency`. Required scope: `ideas:write`. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi/v1.yaml post /ideas openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Scripe Public API version: '2026-08-10' summary: >- Read and write Scripe workspace data — posts, notes, ideas, sources, knowledge, media, analytics, usage, async jobs, and webhooks. description: | The Scripe public API gives integrators stable, versioned access to a workspace's content surface: reads across every resource, synchronous writes (notes, posts, ideas, text sources, media assets), async jobs (post generation, file/URL/YouTube ingest, image and carousel generation), usage meters, and outbound webhooks. All endpoints (except `/v1/health`) require a Bearer token — either a workspace API key (`scripe_sk_*`) or an OAuth 2.1 access token (`scripe_oat_*`). Pin the API version with the `Scripe-Api-Version` request header to opt out of breaking changes. contact: name: Scripe Support url: https://scripe.io/support email: support@scripe.io license: name: Proprietary servers: - url: https://api.scripe.io/v1 description: Production security: - BearerApiKey: [] tags: - name: Health description: Liveness and authenticated key smoke tests. - name: Workspace description: The workspace + principal resolved from your API key. - name: Projects description: Personal-brand, company-page, and amplifier projects. - name: Notes description: Project notes with paired calendar slot. - name: Posts description: Drafts, scheduled, and published LinkedIn posts. - name: Analytics description: Your own LinkedIn analytics and viral-post inspiration search. - name: Sources description: Transcriptions (audio/video sources) with truncated body. - name: Uploads description: >- Pre-signed S3 PUT URLs the customer uploads bytes to before referencing via Sources or Knowledge. - name: Knowledge description: >- Knowledge-base documents indexed for RAG.

Subscribe an endpoint to one or more event names; we POST a signed JSON payload every time a matching event fires in the workspace. The signing secret is shown once on create and once on rotate — verify the `Webhook-Signature: t=,v1=` header on every delivery. paths: /ideas: post: tags: - Ideas summary: Create an idea on the board description: | Creates an idea at the top of its column — the board UI's create semantics; ordering is never a caller input. `status` accepts only the writable columns `inbox` (default) and `in_production`; `review`/`done` are derived from the linked post.

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. ````
