Benchling

Benchling is the R&D data platform life-sciences teams run their lab on — a registry of entities (cell lines, plasmids, strains, reagents), DNA and protein sequences, and an electronic lab notebook whose entries are the write-up of the work.

  • API key

Actions

Generic API request. Call any Benchling API v2 endpoint on this connection, for the case where no shipped action covers it yet — assay results and runs, containers, boxes, plates and locations, requests, workflow tasks, dropdowns, blobs, lab automation, or the bulk and upsert variants of the entity endpoints. The connection supplies the…

  • Create custom entityCreate a custom entity against an entity schema the tenant has configured — a cell line, reagent or whatever else that schema models.
  • Create DNA sequenceCreate a DNA sequence from its base pairs.
  • Create notebook entryCreate a notebook entry in a folder.
  • Get custom entityRead one custom entity by its Benchling API id, with its schema field values resolved.
  • Get DNA sequenceRead one DNA sequence by its Benchling API id, with its bases, annotations and schema field values.
  • Get notebook entryRead one notebook entry by its Benchling API id, including its days and the notes that make up the body.
  • Get taskRead the state of a long-running Benchling task.
  • List custom entitiesList custom entities — the schema-defined records a tenant uses for anything that is not a sequence, such as cell lines, plasmid designs, reagents or strains.
  • List DNA sequencesList DNA sequences — plasmids, inserts, constructs and anything else a tenant models as DNA.
  • List entity schemasList the entity schemas configured on the tenant, each with its field definitions.
  • List entry schemasList the notebook entry schemas configured on the tenant, each with its field definitions.
  • List foldersList folders, optionally narrowed to one project or to the children of one folder.
  • List notebook entriesList notebook entries — the lab notebook records where experiments are written up.
  • List projectsList the Benchling projects the connected key can see.
  • List registriesList the registries configured on the tenant.
  • Register entitiesMove existing entities into a registry, so Benchling assigns each one the permanent, unique registry id the rest of the organization quotes.
