Get Started Authentication

Monotype Integrations

Bring world-class typography, AI font intelligence, and seamless licensing into your product.

Authentication


Access to Monotype capabilities requires authorized authentication. Follow the steps below to obtain your credentials and complete authentication.

  1. Retrieve Client Credentials

    Before you can authenticate, you need a Client ID and Client Secret. Request these from your Monotype partner contact. Before development begins, confirm:
     

    1. Platform credentials have been issued
       
    2. Required permissions are enabled for your intended capabilities
       
    3. Your platform's callback address is registered (required for user-level access)
       

  2. Complete Authentication

    Monotype supports two authentication patterns: 
     

    1. Platform-level access - Background operations — inventory sync, usage reporting, tag management
       
    2. User-level access - Accessing a specific user's Monotype font library and collections

Most integrations use both.
