# Open the billing portal for a workspace

`POST /v2/workspaces/{id}/billing/portal`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.infolang.ai`
- URL: `https://api.infolang.ai/v2/workspaces/{id}/billing/portal`
- Auth: one of:
  - HTTP bearer
  - HTTP bearer
  - HTTP bearer

Returns a Stripe customer portal URL. The billing subject is the workspace's OWNER on every lane, and a session-lane caller who is not the owner is refused `403` — a portal session covers the owner's whole Stripe account. See the checkout route's note.

Requires the `billing:write` scope. Accepts all three lanes: a session JWT (bounded by the caller's role on this workspace) or an `il_*` machine credential whose own scope set, workspace set and validity window cover it — both ceilings apply and neither can raise the other, so a credential carrying `billing:write` is still refused where the role does not permit it.

A credential with no scope record resolves to `LEGACY_DEFAULT`, which does NOT include `billing:write` — mint a key with it explicitly (`POST /v2/workspaces/{id}/keys`).

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required

## Response `200`

Portal URL

- object
  - `url` string, required

## Other responses

- `401`: Missing/invalid credential, or `credential_expired` — the credential is outside its `[not_before, expires_at)` window and must be replaced
- `403`: `insufficient_scope` — the credential's own scope set, or the caller's role on this workspace, does not cover the scope this route requires (the missing scope is named in the message). Or `forbidden` — the credential is not scoped to this workspace, or holds no grant on it
- `500`: internal_error — unexpected failure (e.g. billing backend misconfigured or unreachable)
- `503`: not_configured — self-serve billing is not available on this deployment: either no payment processor is wired, or its prices do not reconcile with the published catalog. Returned INSTEAD of a checkout URL, because the alternatives were a link to a domain that does not resolve and a checkout that charges an amount the page never showed. Mirrors `self_serve_checkout` on both summaries exactly — same evaluation, same cache.
