How integrations work
Your client authenticates with Blnk Cloud. Cloud validates the request, routes it to the correct Core instance usinginstance_id, and returns the response.
AI tools using MCP follow the same path: your assistant talks to Cloud, not directly to Core.

If you self-host Blnk Cloud under a production license, use your deployment’s public URL as the API base instead of
https://api.cloud.blnkfinance.com. See License configuration.Choose an integration
