Powercode API

The Powercode API represents a secure method for interfacing with Powercode programmatically. API endpoints are documented here. Examples of proper API Endpoint usage and Powercode API capabilities can be found  on the same page.

Generate an API Key

Powercode requires you to generate an API Key for each service that will make use of the API.

Go to Powercode Billing Server at Config > System Configuration > API and click Generate New API Key. 

Enter the origin IP and a description of the service you intend to interface with the Powercode API and click Save to create your API Key.

Powercode API Settings

Generate New API Key: Allows creation of API keys for allowing API connections to your Powercode Billing server.

Existing API keys are shown below the Generate New API Key button and can be edited or deleted using the Action dropdown. Editing an API Key allows you to regenerate the API Key string in addition to updating the Name and IP address.
