API Keys
On-Brand Menu API keys allow you to securely access your menu data. API keys can only be used to read menu data from selected menus, they cannot be used to write or make calls to the underlying POS provider.
Before you can create an API key you must first create an API source for one of our supported POS providers.
Create an API Key
API keys can be created and managed from the Developer Portal’s API keys section.
-
Click the “Create New…” button .
-
Select “API Key” .
-
Name your new API Key to “My API Key”.
-
From the “Source” dropdown, select an API source you’ve already created.
-
Select the menu(s) you’d like the API key to be able to access. The menus your API key has permissions to access will show up as “API Ingredients” for the API key.
-
Click “Generate API key”.
-
Copy the generated API key to your clipboard.
