Create a REST API key

1
Open the REST API settings
Sign in to your coveto account.
- Navigate to Einstellungen (Settings) > REST API.
- Click Neu (New) to start creating a key.
2
Configure the key and save it
Set the developer contact details and the access rights the integration needs.
- Enter your developer contact details (used for security incident support).
- For each endpoint, choose an access level: none (no access), read (GET), write (GET, POST, PATCH), or delete (all methods including DELETE).
- Grant only the endpoints and levels your integration requires.
- Optionally restrict the key to a specific server IP address for added security.
- Click Speichern (Save).
