API keys let you securely connect your workspace to outside tools — Zapier, sourcing tools, reporting dashboards, and custom integrations. Every key can be given exactly the access it needs, so you never have to hand over more than necessary.

Who can manage API keys

Only organization admins can create, roll, or revoke API keys. If you don't see these options, ask an admin in your workspace.

Where to find them

Go to Settings → Email & other integrations → API access & Webhooks: stardex.com/settings?tab=email-calendar&section=api-access

Webhooks for outbound events are on this same page, below the keys. See the Webhooks guide.

Creating an API key

  1. Click Create key.
  2. Give it a clear name (for example, “Zapier integration” or “Reporting dashboard”). Use a separate key for each tool so they're easy to manage.
  3. Choose an access level (see below).
  4. (Optional) Set an expiry date.
  5. Click Create key.

Access levels

Level What it can do Best for
Read only Read data across your workspace, but can't change anything. Reporting, dashboards, and syncing data out.
Integration Read and write People, Candidates, and Jobs, and write notes and activities. No access to documents, note history, compensation, deals, or meetings. Zapier and sourcing tools.
Custom Exactly the permissions you choose. Fine-grained control.
Admin Full access to everything, including sensitive data. Only when nothing narrower works. You'll be asked to type ADMIN to confirm.

Choosing permissions (Custom keys)

When you pick Custom, you'll see a grid of resources with Read, Write, and Delete columns. Tick only what the integration actually needs.
