Create an app

Create an app in Zelt to get your Client ID and Client secret. You will need both to generate your API access token.

1. Sign in to your Zelt admin account
2. Go to Settings → Security → Developer Hub → Build Apps
3. Fill in the required fields:
   1. Name: a clear name for your integration (e.g., "HR Sync", "Internal Tool").
   2. Description: short explanation of what this app will be used for.
   3. Redirect URI: required since your integration uses OAuth-style redirects. Use a publicly accessible URI (e.g., https://google.com/). Local addresses such as localhost or 127.0.0.1 are not supported.
4. Click Generate. A drawer appears showing your Client ID and Client secret. Use the copy buttons to save both values in a secure place.

❗️

Important

The Client secret is only shown once and cannot be viewed again. Copy it now and store it securely (e.g., in a password manager or secrets vault). If you lose it, you will need to regenerate it and update every integration that uses it.

5. Click Close to finish
