API Keys

Create API keys to connect external tools to Writerflow.

What API Keys Are For

API keys let external tools and scripts talk to Writerflow’s API — for example, to search documents or push content from another system. Each key carries its own permissions.

Creating a Key

  1. Go to Settings → API Keys and click “Create API Key”

  2. Give the key a name (e.g., “WordPress Plugin”)

  3. Choose its scopes — Read, Write, Approve, and Webhooks

  4. Click Create Key

  5. Copy the key immediately — it’s shown only once

Using a Key

Send your key in the X-Api-Key header when calling the API. The API base URL is https://api.writerflow.io/api/v1.

For example:

curl -H "X-Api-Key: YOUR_KEY" https://api.writerflow.io/api/v1/documents/search?q=

Managing Keys

From the API Keys page you can edit a key’s scopes, regenerate it (which immediately invalidates the old value), or revoke it. The table shows each key’s scopes and when it was last used.
