Developer settings: generate an API key
Generate a DingDoong API key for custom integrations or developer access to your scheduling data.
Overview
The Developer settings let you generate an API key for programmatic access — useful if you (or your developer) want to integrate DingDoong scheduling data with other systems.
Before you start
- You can access Settings → Advanced settings → Developer.
- You have a developer/integration that needs the key (otherwise you don't need one).
How to generate an API key
Here's how, step by step:
Step 1: Open Developer settings
Go to Settings → Advanced settings → Developer.
Step 2: Generate the key
Click Generate to create your API key.
Step 3: Copy and store it securely
Copy the key and store it somewhere safe (a password manager or your developer's secret store).
Common scenarios
Custom integration
Provide the key to your developer to connect DingDoong data with your systems.

How do I revoke a key?
Generate a new key (which replaces the old) so the previous one no longer works.
