Programmatically create user, get user. Covers 29 operations with basic authentication.
Use for: I need to user, I want to user, Search for user, Find all user
Get started with Stytch API in minutes using your preferred integration method.
# Add to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf)
{
"jentic": {
"url": "https://api.jentic.com/mcp",
"auth": "oauth"
}
}
# Then ask your agent:
"create user"
# → Jentic returns the GET /events tool with parameter schema, agent executes.What an agent can do with Stytch API API.

GET STARTED
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm — use for identity and authentication only.
Stytch provides authentication infrastructure. The API supports magic links, OTPs, OAuth, TOTP, sessions, users, passwords, WebAuthn, and connected apps. The API exposes 29 endpoints secured with basic authentication.
Send magic link email
Login or create by magic link
Patterns agents use Stytch API API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Identity and Authentication Operations
Use the Stytch API to perform identity auth operations programmatically. The API provides 29 endpoints covering core functionality including create user, get user, update user.
Call POST /v1/users to create user
Automated Connected Apps Management
Automate connected apps operations by combining multiple Stytch API endpoints. Agents can get user and then update user in a single workflow.
Call GET /v1/users/{user_id} to get user, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Stytch API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle basic tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'create user', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials
29 endpoints — stytch provides authentication infrastructure.

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
Stytch API basic credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'create user') and Jentic returns the matching Stytch API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.
Time to first call
Direct Stytch API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

Specific to using Stytch API API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Stytch API use?
The Stytch API uses HTTP Basic authentication with username and password. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I create user with the Stytch API?
Yes. Use the POST /v1/users endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Stytch API?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I create user through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'create user'. Jentic returns the matching Stytch API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Stytch API have?
The Stytch API exposes 29 endpoints covering connected apps, magic links, oauth operations.
Send magic link email
/v1/magic_links/email/login_or_create
Login or create by magic link
/v1/magic_links/authenticate
Authenticate magic link token
