Authentication Notes

Filevine uses OAuth 2.0 client credentials flow — no browser authorization required. Tokens are fetched automatically and refreshed when they expire. Three regions are supported with separate API and identity hosts:

Region API Host Identity Host
us api.filevineapp.com identity.filevineapp.com
ca api.filevineapp.ca identity.filevineapp.ca
cjis api.filevinegov.com identity.filevinegov.com

Example usage in Claude

"List my open projects"

"Create a task on project 456 — send retainer agreement to client"

"Get the billing vitals for project 789"

"Add a note to project 123 — client called re: mediation date"

"Search documents for 'deposition transcript'"

"List all webhook event types available"
