How Do I Request API Access for My Account?

Updated over a month ago

If your current BrandMentions plan does not include API access, or you are just getting started and know you will need programmatic access to your brand monitoring data, you can request BrandMentions API access for your account.

Before you request API access

Before contacting the BrandMentions team, it helps to:

  • Understand which subscription plans include API access

  • Have a clear idea of how you plan to use the API

  • Know who in your company will be responsible for the technical implementation

This preparation makes the discussion with the BrandMentions team easier and faster.

Step 1. Review BrandMentions subscription plans

Start by reviewing the BrandMentions plans and pricing.

When you do this, focus on:

  • Which plans include API access

  • Look for plan tiers that are designed for: Agencies, Larger companies, Teams that need integrations, automation, and direct data access

If you are not sure which plan is best, do not worry. The BrandMentions team will help you refine this in the next steps.

Step 2. Upgrade your plan if needed or contact the BrandMentions sales or support team

If you are currently on a plan that does not include API access, the BrandMentions representative will help you upgrade to a plan that does.

Once the upgrade is processed:

  • API access will be enabled for your account according to the new plan

  • You will be able to request your API key access inside BrandMentions

Information to include in your request

Provide:

  • Your name and your company name

  • The email address associated with your BrandMentions account, if you already have one

  • A short but clear description of how you plan to use the API, for example:

    • Pulling data into a BI dashboard

    • Integrating with a CRM or reporting system

    • Using mentions in data science or AI workflows

    • Automating alerts or reports for clients

Step 3. Receive your API key

After your plan has been updated and API access is active, you will receive your BrandMentions API key.

By following these steps, you can unlock the full power of the BrandMentions API and start building custom integrations, automations, and data driven solutions tailored to your business.
