Updated over 2 weeks ago

Obtaining an API Org ID

Many APIs require you to pass an API Org ID header with your request.The Org ID specifies the organization the request is made against. You can use the organizations API request to get a list of organizations and their associated API Org ID within the chain.

You can also find it within Event Temple:

For a specific organization go to Settings > Overview for that organization

For all Organizations in a Chain go to Settings -> Chain -> Organizations from the Chain Dashboard.


Additional Information

If using API Keys

  • Api Keys are only accessible by admin users

  • Secrets will only be viewable after creation. After that, they will not be viewable.

  • Api key table will show the last_used_at timestamp

  • Name field is to identify what the token will be used for

  • Currently creating a user or visiting this page generates a token automatically. This ticket makes the key generation of tokens explicit through the Create API key button only

Authorization via API Keys will be deprecated in late 2024, therefore we recommend authorizing by the Apps option described above.
