  2. Access the apps dashboard (steps 2 to 3)
  3. Create a new application and grab credentials (steps 4 to 6)

Step by step

Step 3. In the sidebar of your profile, scroll to the "Developer Links" sections and click on "API Keys". This is where you will manage your different credentials to authenticate with the Eventbrite API.

Step 4. Click on "Create API Key" to create a new OAuth2.0 application.

Step 5. Provide the details asked to save the OAuth consent screen, including:

  • Contact details
  • Application name and website
  • Register the URL you will use to receive the callback once the user logs into Eventbrite.

💡This information can change at any time.

Step 6. Save the form and that's it! Eventbrite will immediately create credentials. If you need to access them again, you can head back anytime to your apps dashboard.
