An API key allows other applications to securely interact with Myphoner, for example when setting up zaps in Zapier or when working directly with our API (docs).
There are 2 different kinds of API keys within your Myphoner Account, the personal one which can be used to only affect your account or the account-wide API key.
Account-wide API Keys
This type of API key is used on an account level and can access all data. Only admins have access to account-wide API keys.
To find the account-wide API keys go to Manage , and select Integrations/API.
Please note that an account-wide API key has access to all of Myphoner. Don't give it to anybody that you don't trust!
It's best practice to generate a new key for each consumer (e.g. Zapier, Make, Integrately, or a custom integration) and label it after the consumer. That way you can later revoke access to a specific consumer (e.g. Zapier) but keep others running (e.g. a custom integration).
Personal API Keys
To find your personal API keys, navigate to My Preferences , select Credentials, and your API keys will be there.
Please note that your personal API key will give you the same access rights as your user has.
Again - it's best practice to generate a new key for each consumer (e.g. Zapier, Make, Integrately, or a custom integration) and label it after the consumer. That way you can later revoke access to a specific consumer (e.g. Zapier) but keep others running (e.g. a custom integration).
