API - Keys

Created by Louise Persson, Modified on Wed, 19 Mar at 12:40 PM by Louise Persson

In Work, you can generate an API key, which can be used to integrate your Work data into other systems like Board.


To create an API key:

1. Go to the "Various" menu.

2. Navigate to "Systemsettings."

3. Click on the "Integrations" tab.

4. Click the green plus sign next to "API Keys."

5. A pop-up will appear where you can enter a title for your API key.

6. Once you click "Save," the API key will be displayed.


Make sure to copy and save the API key in a secure location, as you will not be able to view it again.


7. After copying and saving your API key, click "Confirm." 


API Key for Board

You can now use the API key you just set up to integrate between Work and Board. Read more about this process  here.


The employee must be assigned as a Manager in Board to gain access to creating Boards with restrictions for other modules within the system.

The permissions of the creator in Work determine which data can be displayed in Board.

If you have an employee who should not have access to all data from Work in Board, they need to generate an API key in Work. Follow these steps:

  1. Grant the employee’s user group permission to "Systemsetting."
  2. Allow them to create an API key using the same method as in the previous seven steps.
  3. Set up the integration in Board and ensure access is granted to the employee within the integration. Learn more here.
  4. Remove the "Systemsetting" permission again.
