Make ownership explicit
Record which organization owns the provider account, who can rotate its key, who receives invoices and what happens when the integration is disconnected. Avoid passing credentials through chat or campaign URLs.
Separate product usage from provider cost
For supported BYO paths, SEOPlexa does not apply a monthly commercial usage quota to operations. This does not make provider service free: vendor fees, account limits and terms still apply.
Check the specific supported path
Provider availability depends on what the product has implemented. A compatible local tool or API does not automatically mean SEOPlexa can dispatch it. Confirm the exact workflow in the integration status and product UI.
Keep secrets out of logs
Use provider credential storage intended for the customer environment. Redact keys, bearer tokens and one-time codes before sharing a diagnostic report. Revoke credentials when access is no longer needed.
Add a human review step
Provider responses can be incomplete, delayed or wrong. Review content and target selections before publishing or continuing a consequential workflow. Make retries deliberate when an upstream result is uncertain.
Know the current hosted AI boundary
Hosted AI is currently disabled. Customer-owned content provider paths may be used where supported; this should not be confused with an SEOPlexa-hosted AI service.
