What the key is
A FixGrid API key is a company credential. A Company Admin mints it on Integrations → Developers, and it returns only that company's records. There is no cross-portfolio key and no FixGrid-wide key.
It is for server-side use only. Never ship a key in a browser, a mobile app, a spreadsheet macro, or a Claude / MCP connector.
What it carries
How you get one
A Company Admin mints the key inside FixGrid. This page cannot mint a key. There is no FixGrid-wide key and no cross-portfolio key.
- Open Integrations → Developers.
- Create a key. Label it with the integration's name.
- Choose a scope — read, write, or webhook_only.
- Copy the value. It is shown once. Hand it to the partner over a channel you both trust.
- Revoke it on the same tab at any time.
Your first request
/whoami is the cheapest way to prove a key works: it touches no records and tells you which company and scope you are holding.
curl https://app.fixgrid.app/api/v1/whoami \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $FIXGRID_KEY"
{
"api_version": "v1",
"company": { "name": "Sunrise Property Group", "slug": "spg" },
"key": { "label": "Acme Integrations", "prefix": "fg_live_8Kq2", "scope": "read" }
}
Keys begin fg_live_. The first twelve characters are the prefix, which the administrator can see on their end — quote it when you need to talk about a specific key without sending the key.
What is here
Talk to us (optional)
Building on a customer's behalf? You do not apply to FixGrid for a key. The customer's Company Admin mints it on Integrations → Developers and hands it to you.
If you want a person to look at what you are building before you start, use the form. It does not create a key, grant access, or change anything in a FixGrid account.
