API keys
API keys allow external systems to integrate with your GetClinic data. This is an advanced feature intended for developers.
Creating an API key
- Go to Settings → API Keys (or the API Keys page in the sidebar)
- Click + Create Key
- Give the key a descriptive name (e.g. "EHR Integration")
- Copy the key immediately — it is only shown once
Security
- Store API keys securely — treat them like passwords
- Never expose API keys in client-side code or public repositories
- Revoke any key that may have been compromised immediately
Revoking a key
Click the delete icon next to any API key to revoke it instantly. Any integration using that key will stop working immediately.
