API developer portal updates

The API developer portal launches on February 24, 2025. This portal provides a more intuitive and powerful experience for developers and API consumers.

This update enhances API discovery, security, and management while introducing API client and API key model (formerly API access profiles). Workato has also updated the developer APIs and embedded APIs that manage API clients and keys.

The legacy API portal remains available until August 1, 2025, and legacy API clients and access profiles are supported until July 1, 2026. After this date, Workato will fully deprecate legacy API clients, access profiles, and associated tokens.

What's changing?

API client and API key model

The API clients and API keys model consolidates access control at the API client level. API keys inherit client settings, which enables faster provisioning and self-service key management. Workato has released updated developer APIs and embedded APIs to support this model. We recommend that you use this model for all future API clients and integrations.

Legacy API clients and access profiles

You can create and modify legacy API clients and access profiles until December 1, 2025. After this date, you can't modify existing configurations or create new legacy API clients and access profiles.

On July 1, 2026, Workato will fully deprecate legacy API clients and access profiles. After this date, access tokens associated with legacy profiles will no longer be valid.

Deprecation of the legacy API portal

The API developer portal replaces the legacy API portal, which is accessible through the client URL on the API clients page. The legacy portal remains available until August 1, 2025, after which it will no longer be accessible.

What you need to do

You must create new API clients to access the API developer portal. Legacy API clients aren't compatible with the API developer portal. You should plan to transition before August 1, 2025, to access enhanced capabilities and prevent disruptions. Until then, legacy API clients can continue using the existing client URL.

Refer to the Configure the developer portal to set up and use the API developer portal.

We recommend that you migrate to the API client and API key model before July 1, 2026, when Workato deprecates legacy access profiles and tokens.
