API Keys and Webhooks Management is currently in BETA
Enterprise users can integrate Drawboard Projects with other tools and platforms using API keys and webhooks. Whether you need to automate company processes or customize your workflows, you can build exactly what you need and help your team work more seamlessly across the platforms you use.
Through the beta process, we are working with Enterprise teams to continually improve our API documentation. If your team is using the Drawboard Projects API, speak to your account manager for support during the beta period.
Access to API Keys and Webhooks Management is available to Enterprise users on the Web application. API keys and webhooks can be configured by Organization admins via the Account Admin portal.
API keys
An API key is a unique string of characters included in a request to authenticate that the requesting system has permission to communicate with the receiving system.
Enterprise customers can use Drawboard Projects' public API to build solutions that integrate Drawboard Projects with other tools and platforms.
