API Tokens

API Tokens allow you to authenticate your applications and scripts with the WhatsSpot API programmatically. You can generate multiple tokens for different integrations.

Managing API Tokens​

You can manage your API tokens directly from the WhatsSpot Dashboard.

Creating a Token​

  1. Go to Settings > API Tokens.
  2. Click the Generate Token button.
  3. Enter a descriptive name for your token (e.g., "Zapier Integration", "Website Contact Form").
  4. Click Generate.
  5. Copy your token immediately.

[!CAUTION] For security reasons, the token is only shown once. If you close the dialog without copying it, you will need to generate a new one.

Revoking a Token​

If a token is compromised or no longer needed, you should revoke it immediately:

  1. Go to Settings > API Tokens.
  2. Find the token in the list.
  3. Click the Trash Icon (Revoke).
  4. The token will stop working immediately.

Using API Tokens​

Include your token in the HTTP Authorization header or as a custom header x-api-key in your requests.

See the API Reference for technical details on using tokens.
