• API key

Related resources

Refer to Action Network's API documentation{:target=_blank .external-link} for more information about working with the service.

Using API key

To configure this credential, you'll need an Action Network{:target=_blank .external-link} account with API key access enabled and:

• An API Key

To get an API key:

1. Log in to your Action Network account.
2. From the Start Organizing menu, select Details > API & Sync{:target=_blank .external-link}.
3. Select the list you want to generate an API key for.
4. Generate an API key for that list.
5. Copy the API Key and enter it in your n8n credential.

Refer to the Action Network API Authentication instructions{:target=_blank .external-link} for more information.

Request API access

Each user account and group on the Action Network has a separate API key to access that user or group's data.

You must explicitly request API access from Action Network, which you can do in one of two ways:

1. If you're already a paying customer, contact them to request partner access. Partner access includes API key access.
2. If you're a developer, request a developer account{:target=_blank .external-link}. Once your account request is granted, you'll have API key access.
