/api/v1 request is authenticated with an API key sent as a Bearer token.
fsk_. FlowSign stores only a hash of the key; the full value is shown once, when the key is created.
Creating and managing keys
Keys are created in the app at Settings > API keys (my.flowsign.app/settings/api-keys).- Name the key after where it will live (for example “Production server”).
- Expiry is optional. A key with no expiry works until you revoke it; a key with an expiry stops working at the end of that day.
- The key value is displayed once in a reveal dialog and cannot be read again. If you lose it, create a new key.
- Revoke a key from the same page. Revocation is immediate and permanent.
- There is no rotate operation. To rotate, create a new key, move your integration to it, then revoke the old one.
Who can use the API
- Permission. Creating and using keys requires the API access permission on the user’s profile. The built-in Admin profile has it; Sender and Viewer do not. An administrator can grant it from Roles & Permissions.
- Acting as a user. A key acts as its creator. Endpoints that change data check that user’s permissions, so a key created by someone without the send permission cannot send packages (
403 Missing permission: canSendPackages). - Webhook endpoints (
/api/v1/webhooks) additionally require the user to be an organisation admin. - Plan. The public API is included in the Enterprise plan. Webhooks are a separate feature on the same plan. Calls from organisations without the feature return
402. - IP allowlist. If your organisation has an IP allowlist (Settings > Security), API calls from other addresses are refused with
403 IP address not allowed.
Workspaces
A key belongs to the organisation and acts in one workspace per request. SendX-Workspace-Id to choose the workspace; omit it to act in the default one. See Workspaces.
Why a request is refused
See Errors for the response format, validation details and rate limits.
