Every Ziptax API request needs an API key. This walkthrough shows you how to create one from your account dashboard at platform.zip.tax.

Go to platform.zip.tax

The Ziptax platform Getting Started page

Go to Develop > API Keys

The Develop section expanded in the sidebar with API Keys highlighted

Click Create New Key

The Create New Key button in the top right of the API Keys page

Copy your new key

Store the key somewhere safe. It’s only shown in full once. Treat it like a password: keep it out of source control and don’t share it publicly.

Once you have a key, head to Authentication to see how to use it on every request, or jump into the Quickstart to make your first call.
