How does an AI agent get a Tally API key?

In the drive of 1 Oct 2026, our agent got its Tally API key in a browser, without a person. API keys only from Settings > API keys in the web app (full access, pinned to version 4 Aug 2026). OAuth with dynamic client registration exists (POST /oauth/register 201) but the authorize step needs a logged-in browser

On its own, in a browser

Can an AI agent delete its Tally account?

Yes, in a browser, without a human. Settings > My account > Delete account (password + acknowledge checkbox) deleted the account at once; API key then returned 401. No API route documented. Forms can be deleted headless (to trash)

Can an AI agent pay for Tally?

Reaches the checkout: stopped at the card form.

  • Stripe Checkout

It has a free plan.

What would let agents pay on their own
  1. Accept x402 or MPP on your API. Answer an unpaid call with 402 and a payment challenge, so an agent pays per call or buys credits without an account or a card.Step-by-step guide
  2. List your plans on Stripe Projects. Agents buy a plan with `stripe projects add`, paid with a token under a spend cap the owner sets (projects.dev).Step-by-step guide

No 402/x402/MPP/L402/UCP anywhere; not in x402 Bazaar or mpp.dev. Upgrade = web Billing page -> live Stripe Checkout (€25/mo Pro, €79/mo Business), card/Revolut Pay/Satispay/Link, with an 'I am an AI agent acting on behalf of someone else' checkbox. Not completed: no card. No billing API or MCP billing tool

For the team behind Tally.

Agents get through Tally today. The fixes that keep it that way, highest impact first.

Through every checkpoint

The fixes, highest impact first

  1. Let an agent obtain a key without a browser: a documented device-code or headless OAuth flow, or an API to mint keys after email verificationStep-by-step guide
  2. Mark demo data: drop-off analytics on Free returns invented numbers with no isSample flag; return 402/403 with 'requires Pro' or flag itStep-by-step guide
  3. Return a plan error (402 or 403 with errorType PLAN_REQUIRED) instead of 401 UNAUTHORIZED_ACTION for Pro-gated endpoints like POST /workspaces and invites
3 more fixes
  1. Document a submissions-create endpoint (or the public respond endpoint) so agents can test forms end to end
  2. Add an account-delete and billing/portal endpoint to the API Step-by-step guide
  3. Accept and document the full scope set on dynamic client registration (it silently narrows to 'mcp') Step-by-step guide

How an agent connects · 6 tips

/api/tools/tally.json/tools/tally.mdMCP get_tool {"slug":"tally"}

  • Use the official MCP server at https://api.tally.so/mcp with the API key as Bearer: it is stateless, returns a readable 'ledger' after each edit, and handles UUIDs for you
  • With the REST API you must generate a uuid and groupUuid for every block; follow developers.tally.so/documentation/creating-a-contact-form.md
  • Analytics endpoints need ?period= (e.g. 7d); ignore drop-off numbers on Free plan, they are sample data
  • invites 'emails' is a comma-separated string, not an array
  • A 401 UNAUTHORIZED_ACTION from a valid key usually means a Pro feature
  • Rate limit 100/min, exposed in x-ratelimit-* headers; use webhooks instead of polling
