Every request needs an API key. Pass it in the Authorization header:
A missing key returns 401. An invalid key, or a key used for a different venue, returns 403.

Each key works for one venue. Create a separate key for each venue you integrate with.
The key is shown only once. Keep it secure and never expose it in client-side code, public repositories or logs.

​
Lost or exposed keys

Your keys are listed under Integrations → API Keys. Click the ··· menu next to a key to:
  • Regenerate - create a new key. The old key keeps working, so nothing breaks while you swap them over.
  • Suspend - stop the key working until you reinstate it.
  • Delete - remove the key permanently.
