Work with your own weclapp key

Store your personal weclapp key so changes run under your name and with your weclapp permissions.

What you get

With a personal weclapp key, every change your AI assistant from wals.pro AI 4 weclapp makes for you shows your name in weclapp instead of a shared integration user. Your own weclapp permissions apply as well: what you may not do in weclapp, the assistant may not do for you either.

Store your own key

  1. Create an API token for your own user in weclapp. Where to find it is explained in Connect weclapp.
  2. Open your account and go to My ERP keys.
  3. Choose the workspace and paste the token into the weclapp API key field.
  4. Click Save key. The platform checks the key with weclapp and reports Key tested and saved.
  5. Use Test to check the connection again at any time. If your AI client showed a message about a required key before, reconnect it afterwards.

This works in every role, including Viewer. You can replace your key yourself at any time; only an admin can remove it.

Require personal keys as an admin

  1. Open the company profile and go to ERP keys.
  2. Keep Allow personal weclapp keys switched on and switch on Require a personal weclapp key.
  3. Check the members listed without their own key: these members cannot connect after saving until they have stored their key.
  4. Click Save changes.

If you switch off Allow personal weclapp keys, everyone works through the workspace's shared key. Stored personal keys stay saved but are not used.

Remove a key as an admin

  1. Open Users and click Open member page for the member.
  2. In Personal weclapp key, click Remove key.

Good to know

  • Removing a key does not take away anyone's permissions in weclapp. Revoke the token itself in weclapp if needed.
  • Without your own key, the workspace's shared key applies. If your admin requires a personal key, there is no such fallback.
  • Personal keys are available on every paid plan, not on the Free plan.
  • Previews and approvals work as before. A personal key does not change the rule that every change only runs after your approval.
