# With explicit API key
scripts/call_crew.sh marketing '{"topic": "mindfulness apps"}' "YOUR_API_KEY"

Option 2: Direct cURL

curl -X POST "https://crew.iclautomation.me/crews/<crew_name>/run" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $CREWAI_API_KEY" \
  -d '{"input": {...}}'

Response Format

All crews return structured JSON:

{
  "ok": true,
  "crew": "marketing",
  "trace_id": "abc123-def456",
  "result": {
    "workflow": "marketing",
    "output": "... the generated content ...",
    "input_summary": {...}
  },
  "error": null
}

Extract the output: The actual generated content is in result.output.

Best Practices

1. Set timeouts appropriately:
• Marketing/Support/Analysis: 30-60 seconds
• Social Media: 5-10 minutes

1. Check API key: Ensure CREWAI_API_KEY environment variable is set or pass explicitly

1. Handle errors: Check the error field in responses

1. Social Media crew: Expect 3-5 minutes response time; don't interrupt

1. Batch requests: For multiple similar tasks, consider running them sequentially

Health Check

Verify the CrewAI server is running:

curl https://crew.iclautomation.me/health
# Expected: {"ok": true}

Future Expansion

When new crews are added to the server:

1. Update the "Available Crews" section
2. Add example usage to the helper script
3. Document input parameters and response times
