The Shiftkeeper API enables you build your own integrations on top of Shiftkeeper.
Anything you can do in the web and Slack app, you can also do via the API.

## Getting started

First generate an API key by going to [Settings > API Keys](https://app.shiftkeeper.io/settings/api).
Then head over to the [API reference](/api-reference) to learn how to use the API.
