How to create and manage API keys on the Ubiqod platform
With the Ubiqod API, you can interact with the platform programmatically without needing to access the web interface.
To use the API, you need to generate and use API keys. These keys are also required to authorize communication with automation platforms such as Make, Zapier, and Power Automate.
Accessing your API keys
To manage your existing API keys or create new ones, go to Account Settings.
In the Account tab, scroll down to the API keys section:
For security reasons, it is recommended to create a separate API key for each service connected to the API.
This allows you to revoke a key if a third-party tool is compromised, without disrupting integrations that rely on other API keys. đ
Creating a new API key
To create a new API key, click Generate a new API key.
Give the key a clear name so you can easily identify which service or integration it is used for.
Copying your API key
To copy the key, click the eye icon to reveal it, then copy and paste the key into the destination system.
Keep this key secret. Outside of the destination system where it is used, your API key should never be shared or stored insecurely, as it provides full access to your Ubiqod account.
Regenerating an API key
If you want to regenerate an API key, click the corresponding regenerate icon.
When you regenerate a key, the previous key is immediately invalidated. Any systems currently using that key will no longer be able to communicate with your Ubiqod account until they are updated with the new key.
