What is Kinsta?

Kinsta's API can now manage company users and permissions.

The Kinsta API gained three endpoints to list and manage company users and their access to WordPress sites. It follows enhanced Vulnerability Protection, environment suspension and bulk add-on management in MyKinsta, and a summer centred on disaster recovery for dedicated servers.

What is Redocly?

Redocly's reunite.agent gets per-duty cron schedules, rules and source repos.

Redocly shipped three Reunite releases and a config release on Oct 28. The feedback and discovery duties in reunite.agent can now each run on their own UTC cron trigger, follow their own rules and read only listed source repositories. SCIM provisioning now accepts identity-provider groups of any size, where pushes over 1,000 members used to fail. @redocly/config 0.69.0 also adds per-rule impact settings for the experimental diff command.

Kinsta vs Redocly: editorial side-by-side

K
Kinsta
INFRA · APIS
5.0

Kinsta's API can now manage company users and permissions.

◆ Current state

The Kinsta API gained three endpoints to list and manage company users and their access to WordPress sites. It follows enhanced Vulnerability Protection, environment suspension and bulk add-on management in MyKinsta, and a summer centred on disaster recovery for dedicated servers.

◆ Where it's heading

Kinsta keeps bringing MyKinsta functions into the API (domains, HTTPS, logs, backups, visitor data and now user access) while adding security and recovery tools for agencies running many sites. Access management through the API lets agencies automate onboarding and offboarding across clients.

◆ Prediction

Expect further API coverage, likely for the newer security features, and more bulk operations in MyKinsta.

R
Redocly
INFRA · APIS
6.3

Redocly's reunite.agent gets per-duty cron schedules, rules and source repos.

◆ Current state

Redocly shipped three Reunite releases and a config release on Oct 28. The feedback and discovery duties in reunite.agent can now each run on their own UTC cron trigger, follow their own rules and read only listed source repositories. SCIM provisioning now accepts identity-provider groups of any size, where pushes over 1,000 members used to fail. @redocly/config 0.69.0 also adds per-rule impact settings for the experimental diff command.

◆ Where it's heading

Two threads run together: an agent inside Reunite that does recurring docs work (feedback and discovery) and is gaining scheduling and scoping controls, and enterprise plumbing such as SCIM scale, Git token rotation and permission fixes. Last week's configurable docs MCP server points the same way, with Redocly adding AI surfaces and making them configurable in redocly.yaml.

◆ Prediction

Expect more reunite.agent duty types or options in @redocly/config, and the experimental diff command moving toward a documented API-change check.
