Generate a personal API key
Granola authenticates with a personal API key sent as a bearer token. When you create the key you choose its note access scopes: Personal notes (notes you own, notes shared directly with you, and notes in private folders shared with you) and Public notes (notes visible to everyone in the workspace, such as the Team space).
1
Open the API settings
Open the Granola desktop app and go to your API settings.
- Open the Granola desktop app and sign in.
- Go to Settings > Connectors > API keys.
- On Enterprise plans, a workspace admin may first need to allow the scopes you want in Settings > Workspace > General > API access for members.
