The Automation Secret Key
The Automation Secret Key is found on the main Automation tab in your workspace settings. It is used exclusively to authenticate Feedspace with third-party automation platforms such as Pabbly Connect, Make, n8n, and Zapier.
When you set up a Feedspace trigger or action inside one of these platforms, they will ask for an API key or secret key. You paste your Automation Secret Key into that field.
The API Key and Secret Key
The API Key and Secret Key are found on the API tab in the Automation section. These are used for custom developer integrations with the Feedspace REST API. You use them when you write your own code to fetch reviews, submit testimonials, or manage workspace data programmatically.
Quick Comparison

Common Questions
Can I use the Automation Secret Key with the REST API?
No. The Automation Secret Key is not interchangeable with the API Key. Each is designed for a different integration method. Use the key that matches your use case.
Do I need both keys?
Only if you use both integration methods. Most users only need the Automation Secret Key for platform-based automations, or only the API Key for custom development. You do not need to generate both unless you use both.
Where do I find each key?
Go to Settings in the left sidebar, then click Automation. The Automation Secret Key is on the default Automation tab. The API Key and Secret Key are on the API tab.
