Confera DEV
Public API v1 • Getting Started

Use the Confera API

A plain-English guide for non-technical teams: create a key, copy/paste a request, and go live safely.

Start here

The easiest way to use the API is to connect it to a website or app you already have. If you have a developer: send them this page.

Create a key

  1. 1) Dashboard → your conference → Developer → API keys.
  2. 2) Click Create key.
  3. 3) Choose permissions (for example: events:read).
  4. 4) Copy the secret and store it in a password manager.
Do not paste the key into your website builder or browser code. Treat it like a bank password.

Use the key

Your developer will store the key in a server environment variable and send it using the header X-API-Key.

What a request looks like
bash
curl "https://your-domain/api/public/v1/health" \
  -H "X-API-Key: cat_..."

Your first API call

Try schedule events (read-only):

List events
bash
curl "https://your-domain/api/public/v1/events/events?limit=50" \
  -H "X-API-Key: cat_..."

Going live

  • Use one key per integration (website, kiosk, partner, etc.).
  • If anything leaks, revoke the key instantly.
  • Keys stop working automatically when the plan ends.
