Global Settings Hub, Audit Log & Developer Settings

Audience: Account owners and admins configuring account-wide settings, governance, and API access.

---

The settings hub

Settings (/settings) is the account-wide hub, reachable from the account menu in the sidebar. It groups every configuration page into sections:

Group	What lives there
Account	Profile, password and security, timezone and preferences.
Workspace	Team settings, website management, and workspace-level configuration.
Billing & Usage	Plan & Billing (subscription, invoices, payment method) and Usage (credits, articles, limits).
Developer & Integrations	API Keys — generate and revoke API access keys, plus MCP integration details.
Advanced	Audit Log and other governance and enterprise pages.

The Settings page itself also handles the everyday account tasks: viewing your current plan and opening the Stripe customer portal, changing your timezone, changing your password, downloading a copy of your data, managing websites, and deleting your account.

Audit Log (Enterprise)

Settings → Audit Log (/settings/audit-log) shows a complete history of actions performed on your account. It requires the Enterprise Audit Trail feature.

• Date range — last 7, 30, or 90 days, or a custom start and end date.
• Action filter — narrow the list to a single action type.
• Paging — 25 events per page.
• Export CSV — download the filtered events for offline review or compliance archiving.

Retention is configured per account; Enterprise plans can be provisioned with multi-year retention.

Developer settings & the Agent (MCP) API

Settings → API Keys (/settings/developer) is where you manage API keys, view usage metrics, and configure webhooks for MCP integrations. The MCP/Agent API requires a Business plan or higher.

• API keys — create a key with a name, copy it once, and revoke it at any time. Quick stats show active keys, total keys, and total API requests.
• MCP endpoint — point your MCP client at /api/mcp on your ScaleBlogger domain and authenticate with Authorization: Bearer sb_your_api_key.
• Available tools — generate-article, publish-article, schedule-social, and analyze-website.
• Webhook events — article.completed, article.published, social.posted, and analysis.completed.

Advanced Webhooks is an Enterprise feature that adds retry handling, delivery logs, and an expanded event set on top of the standard webhook configuration.

AI models & bring your own model (Enterprise)

Settings → AI Models & API Keys (/settings/ai-models) lets you bring your own LLM API keys for data privacy and cost control. Content generation uses your keys when they are available. BYOM is an Enterprise feature.

• Providers — OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Gemini.
• Per key — nickname, optional preferred model (for example gpt-4o or claude-sonnet-4-20250514), and an optional custom endpoint URL.
• Validation — keys are validated before they are saved, and you can re-validate an existing key at any time.
• Security — keys are encrypted at rest and only ever shown masked.
• Usage — the page summarises tokens used and estimated cost over the last 30 days, separate from platform credits.
• Fallback — by default a failed call on your key falls back to ScaleBlogger’s platform models so generation is not interrupted. Turn fallback off if a failure should surface as an error instead.

Autonomy settings

Automation behaviour is configured per website and per channel — SEO, Backlinks, AI search, Social, Outreach, and Engagement — using three autonomy modes:

• Suggest — surface opportunities for manual review.
• Approve — queue actions for your approval before they run.
• Autopilot — run actions automatically up to a daily cap (5 per channel by default).

Autopilot actions require a Starter plan or higher.
