Connect Lob to your AI agent

Marketing 13 actions available

Direct Mail Automation and Address Verification APIs

We set up the connection using your own Lob account, with keys you control, and keep it running. Your agent picks it up and starts doing the work.

What your agent can do in Lob

Each one is a real action the agent can take on its own, the same things a person clicking around Lob could do. Read-only by default; write actions are confirmed against your policy.

  • Create Domain Tool to add a new custom domain for creating custom links. Use when you need to register a domain for short link customization.
  • Create Link Tool to create a shortened URL from a long URL using Lob's link shortening service. Use when you need to shorten a long URL either by using a custom domain or Lob's own short domain.
  • Delete Domain Tool to delete a registered domain. Use only after confirming all associated links with the domain are deleted.
  • Delete Link Tool to delete a shortened link. Use when you need to remove a previously created short link from the system.
  • Delete Upload Tool to delete an existing upload by its unique identifier. Use when you need to permanently remove an upload and its associated data.
  • Get Domain Tool to retrieve details for a single domain from Lob. Use when you need to get configuration status, redirect links, or other metadata for a specific domain.
  • Get Link Tool to retrieve a single shortened link. Use when you need to fetch details about a specific link by its ID.
  • List Domains Tool to retrieve a list of all created domains. Use when you need to view or manage custom domains configured for URL shortening. Supports pagination and filtering by configuration status.
  • List Shortened Links Tool to retrieve a list of shortened links. The list is sorted by creation date, with the most recently created appearing first. Use when you need to view all links or filter by campaign or domain.
  • List QR Code Analytics Tool to retrieve a list of your QR codes and their analytics data. The QR codes are returned sorted by scan date, with the most recently scanned QR codes appearing first.
  • List Uploads Tool to list uploads from Lob. Use when you need to retrieve all uploads or filter uploads by campaign ID.
  • Update Link Tool to update any properties of a shortened link. Use when you need to modify the redirect URL, title, or metadata of an existing Lob shortened link. Requires the link_id and at least the redirect_link to update.
  • Validate Identity Tool to validate whether a given name is associated with an address. Use when you need to verify identity information by checking if a recipient name matches address records.

How we connect it

  1. 1

    Connect your account

    You create a key in Lob, a key you create and control, and paste it in once. It lives in a secrets store on your server, not with us.

  2. 2

    Set the guardrails

    Read-only by default. You choose which write actions the agent may take, and anything outside that policy gets confirmed with you first.

  3. 3

    We keep it running

    Health checks on every connection, updates handled for you, and we watch the first week of activity to make sure the work lands.

Lob questions, answered.

With a key you create and control. You paste it in once, it is stored in a secrets store on your server, permissions are scoped to the minimum the agent needs, and you can revoke it at any time.
The actions Lob's API allows, the same things a person clicking around the app could do. Connections start read-only by default; write actions are confirmed against the policy you set before the agent takes them.
Connections are priced per tool on top of the base plan. Some are included, some are premium. See pricing for how connection charges work.
Standard tools are ready inside 7 business days of the setup call. We test the connection end to end, walk you through how the agent uses it, and watch the first week of activity.
