Benchling RNA Oligos API

RNA Oligos are short linear RNA sequences that can be attached as primers to full DNA sequences. Just like other entities, they support schemas, tags, and aliases.

Benchling RNA Oligos API is one of 58 APIs that Benchling publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.

Tagged areas include RNA Oligos. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, an API reference, authentication docs, a changelog, and a status page.

This API exposes 11 operations across 9 paths, and defines 49 schemas. It is described by OpenAPI 3.0.1, at version 2.0.0.

Requests are made against a single base URL, /api/v2.

Authentication & Security 3

Benchling RNA Oligos API declares 3 security schemes for authenticating requests. It accepts HTTP basic authentication (basicApiKeyAuth). It accepts HTTP basic authentication (basicClientIdSecretAuth). It supports OAuth 2.0 (oAuth) using the clientCredentials flow. By default, every request must be authenticated.

  • basicApiKeyAuth — Use issued API key for standard access to the API
  • basicClientIdSecretAuth — Auth used as part of client credentials OAuth flow prior to receiving a bearer token.
  • oAuth — OAuth2 Client Credentials flow intended for service access

Paths & Operations 11

Across 9 paths, the API surfaces 11 operations — 3 GET, 2 PATCH, 6 POST. Each is listed below with its method, path, parameters, and response codes.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Benchling RNA Oligos API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
