API Keys

API Keys in ViewZen provide secure access to the platform’s resources across products, enabling seamless integration with external applications. These keys act as authentication tokens that allow developers to interact with ViewZen APIs without requiring manual login credentials.

Key Features

  • Secure Authentication – Ensures only authorized users and systems can access ViewZen resources. Once an API key is generated and provided, it cannot be viewed or retrieved again.

  • Permission-Based Access – API keys can have different permissions, limiting access to specific resource and to specific types of access (i.e., create, view, edit and delete).

  • Easy Integration – Enables third-party applications, custom portals, and other applications to connect with the ViewZen platform.

  • Revocation – Users can disable keys to maintain security.

  • Expiry Date - An expiry date an be set for any key.
