Create API Keys

Generate API credentials in the UQPAY dashboard to authenticate your API requests.

Every API request to UQPAY requires two credentials: a Client ID (public identifier) and an API Key (secret). You generate both from the dashboard.

1. Open API key settings

   Sign in to the dashboard, click your profile picture in the top-right corner, and select Settings. Then navigate to Developer > API Keys.

   
2. Create a new API key

   Click Create API Keys in the top-right corner of the API Keys page.

   

   You can configure an IP allowlist during creation to restrict which IP addresses can use this key. You can also edit the allowlist later.

3. Copy and store your API key

   Your API key is displayed on screen after creation.

   

   The API key is shown only once. Copy it immediately and store it in a secure location. If you lose it, you will need to create a new key.

4. Find your Client ID

   Your Client ID is always visible on the API Keys page — you can view or copy it at any time.

   

Only the master account can generate API keys. To call APIs on behalf of a sub-account, use the x-on-behalf-of header — see Connected Accounts.

Next step

You now have your Client ID and API key. Head to the Quickstart to make your first API call.
