Developer role
Developer role
The workspace role for the engineers building on the Coassemble API, and what it can and cannot reach.
How do I give someone API access without giving them access to my courses?
Assign them the Developer role. A developer reaches the Developer area and your API keys but not the course builder, so the engineers wiring Coassemble into your product never touch the courses your team is writing.
You assign it from Settings, then Team, alongside the existing creator role.
What can a developer do?
A developer works in the Developer area of your workspace. From there they can:
- Watch API traffic. A searchable log of every call made against your API keys, showing the time, the method and path, the status code, the duration, the client identifier and the request ID. It filters by time range, status, path and client identifier, and exports as CSV.
- Manage webhooks. Register and edit endpoints, pick up signing secrets, and see the delivery history for each one. Failed deliveries can be replayed, either one row at a time or in bulk after an outage on your side.
- Check per-client activity. Requests, failures and a standing indicator for each client identifier, so a single customer's traffic can be looked at on its own.
- Track usage. Narration tokens and image generation against your AI allowance, plus creator and client activity.
- Create and revoke API keys. Keys are named, and each one shows a created date, a last used date, and whether it is active or revoked. Revoking one key leaves the others working.
A developer cannot open the course builder, create or edit courses, or invite other people to the workspace.
How is a developer different from a creator?
| Can they | Developer | Creator |
|---|---|---|
| Open the Developer area | Yes | No |
| Create and revoke API keys | Yes | No |
| Open the course builder | No | Yes |
| Create, edit and share courses | No | Yes |
The two roles are separate, so someone who needs both has to be given both.
Does adding a developer change my creator count?
No. A developer is not a course creator, so adding one does not change the number of creators in your workspace.
Frequently asked questions
Can a developer see our course content?
No. The Developer area covers API traffic, webhooks, clients, usage and API keys. The course builder is not part of it.
Can I change someone from a creator to a developer?
Yes, from Settings, then Team, the same place you assign the role in the first instance.
Who else can see the Developer area?
Workspace owners. Creators do not see it.
