API access: your content, readable by your own tools - Documentation

The API gives a program access to your content — services, projects, blog, team, testimonials, bookings. It is for connecting your site to something else you already use: an accounting package, an automation, a second site.

The API screen: the key list with name, key, creation date and status, and the panel to generate a new one. — One key per use, so you can revoke one without breaking the others. A revoked key stays in the list — you keep the record of what existed.

Creating a key

Give it the name of what will use it — «Zapier», «accounting software». In six months that name is the only thing that will tell you what to revoke.
Press Generate. Copy the key immediately: it is shown once.
Your program sends it in a header: Authorization: Api-Key <key>.

Trying it without writing code

Browse the API opens the endpoints in your browser, and Interactive documentation lists every collection with its filters and its fields. Both are the fastest way to see what you would get back before building anything.

Revoking

Revoke a key the moment the tool that used it is retired, or if it has been pasted somewhere public. Revocation is immediate and does not affect the other keys.

This add-on is genuinely for a minority. If you do not have a program to connect, or someone to write one, it costs 15 CHF a month for a list of keys nobody uses.
