Question
What is standard API access?
Answer
Standard API access provides you with credentials for read-only access to Toast’s APIs, which can be used to read and review data from any of your locations. (API is short for application programming interface.)
Standard API access allows you to:
Generate multiple credential sets. Each set is configurable to grant read access to specific restaurants or stores.
Use the credentials to read and review data from restaurants and stores included in your credential configuration.
What if I need write access or a custom API integration?
Standard API Access is read-only. If you need write permissions or a custom integration, this is arranged through your Toast account representative. If your account doesn't have a dedicated representative, contact Customer Support so they can submit the request and let you know what to expect next.
Check out our developer guide for more information on Standard API access. Standard API access is available as part of Restaurant Management Essentials (RMS) for U.S. customers. It will be available in RMS to non-U.S. Toast customers soon.
