Welcome to the Networked API! Before diving into our endpoints, here’s a quick guide to help you get up and running smoothly.
Below, we’ll walk you through a couple of key items to ensure you know how to use our APIs effectively:
🔐 API Keys#
All requests to the Networked API must be authenticated with an API key, sent in the X-API-KEY request header.
The key identifies your integration and secures access to your community's data.Community administrators can generate and manage API keys themselves in the Networked admin area. You do not need a request form or a support ticket.1.
Open Admin Pages and go to View All → API.
2.
In the API Key section, select Generate API Key.
3.
Copy the key and store it securely. Treat it like a password. Never expose it in client-side code or public repositories.
⚠️ Note:
To revoke or rotate an API key (for example, after a security concern or under a rotation policy), delete the existing key on the API page and generate a new one.
If you need help, contact our support team at support@networked.co.
🔔 Webhooks#
From the same API page, administrators can set up webhook endpoints to receive real-time notifications about activity in their community:1.
Select Add endpoint, then enter your endpoint URL and verify it.
2.
Choose the events you want to subscribe to.
3.
Use the endpoint's Signing Secret to check that each delivery really comes from Networked.
🚦 Rate Limits#
To ensure fair usage and system stability, we enforce rate limits on all API requests.
These limits vary based on your plan and apply per IP or token.For specifics on rate limits and how to handle throttling, check the Rate Limiting section below.
BASE URL#
All the APIs should be pointing to Networked Backend API URL. In the Documentation whereever you see {{baseUrl}} replace it with the above mentioned value Modified at 2026-10-23 13:17:15
