Developer Tools in Qminder

Learn how to access your Qminder API key and set up webhooks to receive real-time updates.

The Developer Tools tab under Organization Settings gives you access to everything you need to connect Qminder with your own tools and workflows — including your API key and webhook management.

This page includes two key sections: API and Webhooks.

1. API Key

Your API key is what allows your system to securely communicate with Qminder’s API. You’ll need it to authenticate any custom scripts, integrations, or tools that interact with your Qminder data.

To get started:

  • Copy your organization’s API key from this section.

  • Use the key to authenticate requests in your own backend or third-party tools.

⚠️ Keep your API key private. Anyone with this key can access your organization’s data.

2. Webhooks

Use webhooks to receive real-time updates from Qminder when something happens — for example, when a visitor signs in or is called.

You can set up your own webhook endpoint to automatically receive these event notifications in your system.

 

To add a webhook:

  1. Click + New endpoint

  2. Enter your endpoint URL — this is where Qminder will send the data.

  3. Click Add to confirm.

Once added, Qminder will start sending POST requests with relevant event data whenever something changes.
