Connect Zapier, Make or your own scripts

Create an API key so an automation tool can subscribe to your event's webhooks and read sample data, and revoke it when you are done.

Who can do thisowneradmin

Zapier, Make, n8n and your own scripts connect to evenclo with an API key. With a key, the tool can subscribe itself to the events it needs — a new registration, a check-in, a lead — without you pasting webhook addresses by hand.

Everything a tool subscribes to arrives through the same signed webhooks you can see on the Webhooks page.

Create a key

  1. Open Webhooks in the sidebar.
  2. Under Connect Zapier, Make or your own scripts, type what the key is for, such as "Zapier", and press Create a key.
  3. Copy the key straight away and paste it into the tool.

The key is shown once and never again. evenclo keeps only a scrambled copy, so it cannot show it to you later. If you lose it, create a new one and revoke the old.

Each key has a visible prefix so you can tell two keys apart in the list.

What a tool can do with it

The key belongs to your workspace and names the event it is working with, so one key can serve several events.

Revoke a key

Press Revoke next to the key. Every webhook the tool subscribed to with that key is removed at the same time — revoking a key disconnects the integration completely, rather than leaving hooks firing into a tool nobody owns.

Common problems

Zapier's test step shows no data. It reads the sample for the topic, which is always available. Check that the key was pasted in full.

Deliveries stopped. Somebody revoked the key, or the tool turned its own subscription off. Check Your webhooks.
