Lessonly's Open API
API is an application programming interface allowing two networks to communicate with one another. In Lessonly's case, it allows customers to write a program that interfaces with the Lessonly application enabling their platform to interact with Lessonly and share data.
What is Available Through Lessonly's API?
Lessonly API allows the following:
Retrieve a list of users and groups
Create new users
Add new users to groups

How to Access the API Key
All Lessonly customers have access to the open API.
To enable the API > navigate to the Settings tab by selecting the gear icon in the upper right-hand corner > then select the "API & Webhooks," > and choose "Show API credentials."
After selecting Show API credentials, the API Key is revealed and can begin setting up third-party integrations with software Lessonly doesn't directly integrate with.
