What Are API Tokens?

API Tokens allow you to create new API connections with other applications. These should only be used by developers, Zapier, or other applications you trust.

The Open To Close REST API enables you to integrate objects in the Open To Close ecosystem into your own applications. We are continually developing our API to add more functionality while always maintaining backward compatibility.

To use the Open To Close REST API, follow this link to access the details on how to connect your application: Open To Close REST API.

Creating or Removing API Tokens

To start the process of creating a new API Token, you will need to go to your Settings (gear icon) and select Apps & APIs.

Choose API Tokens on the left side and then click on + Create New API Token.

Copy the API Token in the text box and use it with whatever application you need. Click on Close to go back to the API Token section.

Important:

This is the only time your API token will be displayed. Be sure to copy it and save it somewhere secure.

Pro Tip:

Next to the API Token you created in Open To Close, you can add a hint as to where you stored the token in case you ever need to review it.

If you feel your API token has been compromised, revoke it immediately. This can be done by going back to the API Tokens page in Open To Close. Click on Revoke for the token that has been compromised.
