Lob StrawberryThe postcard work, done and queued for one look
Hand a companion the outcome. It reads the Lob postcards, does the 5-operation version of the job, and stops for your click on anything that changes a record.
Open the postcard. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the Lob afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a postcard until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what Lob exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 5 operations, 2 reads and 3 writes. In practice that means it can create a postcard, create a letter and cancel a postcard, and work across the postcards and letters.
The Lob API stops at Lob. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
Where do the postcards come from?
2 of the 5 operations are reads.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can retrieve a postcard and list postcards, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from Lob's documentation.
The postcards are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the letters. A companion can hold all 5 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of Lob admin becomes a queue you review.
- Retrieve Postcard
- List Postcards
Who signs off on a new letter?
All 3 write operations wait for you.
A companion can create a postcard, create a letter and cancel a postcard, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the postcard, the field and the new value before it lands in Lob.
Nothing in Lob is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the postcard exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.
- Create Postcard
- Create Letter
- Cancel Postcard
What does the recurring postcards pass look like?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the Lob postcards pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The product and engineering playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of the engineering admin, the Lob postcards sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
