API keys and webhooks
Automate your listings and offers, and get notified of events on your own server.
- Create API keys on the Developers page. A key is shown once; we only store a hash of it.
- Give each key only the scopes it needs (read, account:read, listings:write, offers:write). Revoke keys you stop using.
- Webhooks send signed JSON to your https URL when something happens on your orders, offers, auctions or messages. Verify the signature, and ignore events whose id you already processed.
- Never put an API key in a website or app that runs in someone else's browser.
The full reference, with examples, is in the API docs.
