Anthropic introduces user profiles to distinguish end customers in the API

only one source so far

New user profiles allow API requests to be linked to specific end customers. According to Anthropic, this means safety enforcement action can affect one customer instead of an entire organization.

Anthropic has introduced user profiles that allow operators to link individual API requests to specific end customers. The feature is also intended for operators of platforms and gateways, as well as API access resellers.

According to Anthropic, this distinction allows safety enforcement action to target an individual customer instead of an entire organization. SDKs and the ant CLI tool support the new /v1/user_profiles endpoint.

What changed
