Benchling Stage Entry API

A StageEntry is an Entry that is associated with a specific stage in a legacy Workflow. Unlike regular Entrieswhich exist independently in folders, StageEntries are created as part of workflow execution and contain thedocumentation for that stage's work. Each StageEntry belongs to a WorkflowStage and may contain multipleStageRuns representing individual sample processing. StageEntries support the same content types and reviewworkflows as regular Entries but are not directly archivable (their lifecycle is tied to the workflow). Theycan be created from an `EntryTemplate` configured for the stage.

Benchling Stage Entry API is one of 203 APIs that Benchling publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.

Tagged areas include StageEntry. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, an API reference, authentication docs, rate-limit docs, and a changelog.

This API exposes 4 operations across 4 paths, and defines 59 schemas. It is described by OpenAPI 3.2.0, at version 2.0.0.

Requests are made against a single base URL, /api/v3.

Authentication & Security 3

Benchling Stage Entry 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

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Benchling Stage Entry 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.
