For Agents
Read and post Circuit conversations, manage users and presence, and start collaboration calls through 123 OAuth-authenticated REST endpoints. Supports community, group, and direct conversations with scope-controlled access.
Use for: I need to post a message into a Circuit group conversation, Search Circuit conversations for a specific keyword, Find a Circuit conversation by its convId, List the Circuit conversations the authenticated user can access
Not supported: Does not handle billing, CRM, or marketing automation - use for Circuit team conversations, calls, and user management only.
Circuit is a team collaboration platform from Unify offering persistent group conversations, direct messages, voice and video calls, screen sharing, and shared spaces. The Circuit REST API v2 exposes 123 endpoints over https://circuitsandbox.net/rest/v2 covering conversations, messages, users, presence, calls, call recording, and spaces. Authentication is OAuth 2.0 implicit flow with fine-grained scopes such as READ_CONVERSATIONS, WRITE_CONVERSATIONS, CALLS, CALL_RECORDING, USER_MANAGEMENT, and MANAGE_PRESENCE so an integration can request only the permissions it actually needs.
Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Circuit REST API Version 2, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fcircuitsandbox.net%2Fcircuitsandbox" | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fcircuitsandbox.net%2Fcircuitsandbox" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with Circuit REST API Version 2 API.
Create a community, group, or direct Circuit conversation and add participants
Search conversations and look up message items by itemId for moderation or audit
Moderate or unmoderate a conversation by convId to control posting permissions
Manage user profiles and presence state for the authenticated tenant
GET STARTED
Trigger or join a real-time collaboration call using the CALLS scope
Archive a Circuit conversation or remove specific participants from a group
Resolve an invite token to onboard external participants into a community
Patterns agents use Circuit REST API Version 2 API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Backend Bots Posting Into Circuit Conversations
An ops or build-status bot can authenticate via OAuth 2.0 with the WRITE_CONVERSATIONS scope and post update messages into a Circuit group conversation when CI completes or an alert fires. The /conversations and /conversations/group endpoints support creating new threads, while item-level endpoints retrieve and update individual messages.
POST a new Circuit group conversation via /conversations/group with a participants list and an initial message body announcing the deploy.
Conversation Compliance and Search
Administrators can use GET /conversations/search and GET /conversations/messages/flag to locate flagged content for compliance review, then call POST /conversations/moderate/{convId} to restrict posting in problematic threads. The MODERATE_CONVERSATIONS and SEARCH_CONVERSATIONS scopes control these capabilities, so a compliance integration only needs the scopes it actually exercises.
GET /conversations/search?searchTerm=invoice and POST /conversations/moderate/{convId} for any thread that surfaces sensitive financial content.
Meeting Hand-off From Chat to Call
When a chat conversation needs to escalate to a live call, an integration can use the CALLS scope to initiate a Circuit call attached to an existing conversation. Combined with CALL_RECORDING for compliance, this lets a workflow promote a discussion thread into a recorded session without users leaving Circuit.
Invoke the Circuit call endpoint to start a real-time session attached to convId 'conv_abc123' with recording enabled.
AI Agent Daily Standup Summary
An AI agent invoked through Jentic can pull the last 24 hours of messages from a Circuit group via GET /conversations/{convId} and the message item endpoints, summarise activity, and post the summary back as a new message. Jentic handles OAuth scope selection so the agent only requests READ_CONVERSATIONS and WRITE_CONVERSATIONS - never USER_MANAGEMENT or CALLS.
Search Jentic for 'summarise yesterday's Circuit conversation', load the GET /conversations/{convId} schema, fetch messages, and POST the summary into the same thread.

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring the Circuit REST API by hand means running its OAuth flow and threading conversations, calls, and user management across a large operation surface yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Circuit REST API Version 2 from the API Directory, store the OAuth credential once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
Circuit puts the conversation id in the URL path (/conversations/{convId}), so a rule can pin your agent to a given conversation for reading items and messages. You choose the operations it may call, so moderating or creating conversations is not included unless you add it.
Credential isolation
Your Circuit OAuth credential is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'search team conversations' or 'read messages in a conversation', and Jentic returns the matching Circuit operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Specific to using Circuit REST API Version 2 API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Circuit REST API use?
Circuit uses OAuth 2.0 with the implicit flow, with fine-grained scopes including READ_CONVERSATIONS, WRITE_CONVERSATIONS, CALLS, CALL_RECORDING, USER_MANAGEMENT, and MANAGE_PRESENCE. Through Jentic the access token is held in your Jentic One instance and never exposed to the agent.
Can I post messages into a Circuit conversation programmatically?
Yes. Create or fetch a conversation via /conversations/group or /conversations/{convId}, then post message items using the item-level endpoints. The WRITE_CONVERSATIONS scope is required for posting.
What are the rate limits for the Circuit REST API?
Circuit does not document hard rate limits in the OpenAPI spec. Plan for tenant-level throttling and let Jentic surface 429 responses for retry. Circuit recommends batching message reads where possible.
How do I search Circuit conversations through Jentic?
Run pip install jentic, search Jentic for 'search Circuit conversations', and load GET /conversations/search. Supply the search term and execute. Jentic injects the OAuth token at runtime. Get started with Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer.
Can I record a Circuit call?
Yes, with the CALL_RECORDING OAuth scope. Combined with the CALLS scope, an integration can start a recorded session attached to a conversation. Recording must comply with your tenant policy and applicable regulation.
How do I moderate a Circuit conversation?
POST /conversations/moderate/{convId} restricts posting to moderators, and POST /conversations/unmoderate/{convId} reverses the change. The MODERATE_CONVERSATIONS scope is required and these endpoints typically pair with /conversations/search for compliance workflows.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Circuit REST API?
Yes. Jentic One is self-hosted, so your own rules decide which Circuit operations and OAuth credentials the agent may use. Because Circuit carries the conversation id in the URL path (/conversations/{convId}), you can pin the agent to a specific conversation and allow only read operations such as fetching messages and items. Higher-impact operations like POST /conversations/group or POST /conversations/moderate/{convId} stay off limits unless you explicitly add them.
