Auth API · gridLayouts

Replace how the signed-in person arranged one grid with order and hidden

PUT /api/auth/me/grid-layouts/{grid}

Replace how the signed-in person arranged one grid with order and hidden — the whole layout, not a change to it; both empty restores the grid's own.

400 InvalidGridLayout for a malformed column key, one named twice, or more than 64 in either list. An impersonating platform admin's arrangement is answered and not stored. Appends auth.grid-layout-set. Idempotent by content: the layout the grid already has (hidden in any order) is acknowledged and appends nothing.

Access

Requires a signed-in session: The signed-in person's own layouts, read from their BetterAuth session; no path names anyone else

How scopes come from roles: Scopes and roles. Getting a token: Authentication and app tokens.

Retries

Idempotent by content: the layout the grid already has (hidden in any order) is acknowledged and appends nothing.

Why every write carries a key: Idempotency and retries.

Facts appended

auth.grid-layout-set

What a fact is: Facts and the journal.

AI agent tool

No agent tool. A person arranges their own grids by dragging columns in the admin; an agent has no grid to arrange and the MCP server does not reach the auth service.

Connecting an agent: AI agents.

The panel writes this call in other languages. It does not send it: Manifold's APIs do not take calls from a web page on another site, so run the call from your own code or terminal. The whole API as OpenAPI: auth-service.openapi.json. Base URL https://auth.getmanifold.io.

Errors

Every refusal is a status and a JSON body whose _tag names it. A refused call changes nothing.

`400`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`InvalidGridLayout` reason	The column layout is malformed: a bad key, a key twice, or more than 64 columns.	Fix the layout and send it again.

`401`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`Unauthorized` reason	The token is missing, expired or not one Manifold issued.	Get a fresh token and send the call again.
`TokenAlreadyUsed` tokenId	A single-use app token was already spent.	Mint a new token for this call.

`402`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`SubscriptionRequired` status	The organization's subscription has lapsed, so writes are refused.	An owner settles billing. Reads still work meanwhile.

`403`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`TenantRequired` userId	The token names no organization.	Choose the organization, then get a new token.
`ScopeRequired` required	The token's roles do not grant the scope this call needs.	Ask an owner or admin for a role that grants it.

`409`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`MirroredFromSource` source	This area is fed by your source system until the organization goes live.	Make the change in the source system, or go live first.

`503`

Refusal	What it means	What to do
`RequestLogUnavailable` tokenId, reason	The service could not record the request, so it did nothing.	Send the same request again shortly.
