Your Recruiterflow API key lets your own tools, scripts, and integrations read and write data in your Recruiterflow account. Admins can generate, copy, regenerate, and revoke the key themselves in Settings > Integrations, with no need to contact support.
Who can see the API key
Only admins can view or manage the API key. If you are not an admin, the Recruiterflow API key card shows a message asking you to contact an admin on your account.
Generate your API key
Your account can have one active API key at a time, and every integration on the account uses that same key.
Go to Settings > Integrations.
Find the Recruiterflow API key card.
Click Generate API key.
Click Copy and store the key in a password manager or secrets vault.
Regenerate the key
Regenerate the key if it was shared by mistake or you want to rotate it on a schedule.
Go to Settings > Integrations.
On the Recruiterflow API key card, click Regenerate key.
Click Regenerate key again in the confirmation window.
Copy the new key and update every integration that uses it.
The old key stops working immediately, so any integration still using it fails until you update it.
Revoke the key
Click Revoke key and confirm. The key stops working immediately and your account has no API key until you click Generate API key again.
Example
A recruiting ops admin builds a script that syncs new candidates to a data warehouse. She opens Settings > Integrations, clicks Generate API key, copies it. Six months later a contractor who had access leaves, so she clicks Regenerate key and updates the script with the new key.
Good to know
The API key gives full read and write access to your account's data. Treat it like a password and never share it in email, chat, or public code.
The Recruiterflow API key is separate from the Zapier key and the Power BI authentication key, which you manage in their own cards on the same page. Regenerating one does not change the others.
