Getting started with Bridge to Brands
Connect your first brand dealer portal, create an API key and make your first availability call to the Bridge to Brands REST API in a few minutes.
Bridge to Brands enables your agents to buy from every brand portal. You connect the dealer (B2B) portals you already have logins for once; then your agents (over MCP), your code (over REST) and your team (in the Browser) reach all of them the same way. Every order is built in the brand’s portal and, where the brand is verified and you have turned it on, placed within your caps and confirmation settings; otherwise you review it and place it in Bridge, in a signed-in portal window — never a portal login.
1. Sign in and connect a brand
Sign in at app.brdg2b.ai with Google. On Brands, choose a brand and enter your existing dealer-portal username and password. They are encrypted and used only by the worker that talks to that portal; API keys and MCP tokens can never read them.
2. Create an API key
On Keys, create a key. Choose scopes (read, or read + orders), optionally restrict it to some brands, and set an expiry. Keys look like b2b_live_<prefix>_<secret>; test keys start with b2b_test_ (see Test mode).
3. Make your first call
curl https://api.brdg2b.ai/v1/brands \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $BRDG2B_KEY"
Each brand comes back with its capabilities and this account’s connection status.
4. Read availability
curl "https://api.brdg2b.ai/v1/brands/brooks/products/120443/availability?color_id=120443189" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $BRDG2B_KEY"
5. Connect an AI agent
Point Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP client at https://mcp.brdg2b.ai/mcp. See MCP.
