Expose selected ProjectBoard operations to external systems securely — Use case

Overview

Create HMAC Bridge v2 credentials with exact operation, IP, replay, timestamp, rate and lifecycle controls.

Problem

External portals, services and integrations need controlled project access without receiving unrestricted workspace credentials.

Solution

ProjectBoard manages Bridge v2 connections for external systems and service accounts, including secrets, allowed operations, IP policies, rate limits, expiry, rotation and request logs.

How it works

Create a connection, grant only the required canonical operations, issue the client credential, then inspect usage and rotate or revoke access from ProjectBoard.
