Admin Package (REST)

The Memberstack REST Admin API allows you to verify webhooks and JWT tokens, and use CRUD methods on Members.

Getting Started

Authentication

The Memberstack Admin API uses secret keys to authenticate requests. You can view and manage your API keys in the Memberstack dashboard.

Test mode (sandbox) secret keys have the prefix sk_sb_ and live mode secret keys have the prefix sk_live_.

Rate Limits -> 25 requests per second.

Secret Keys -> Your Secret keys carry administrative privileges, so keep them secure and use them in server-side environments only! Do not use your secret keys in publicly accessible places like Webflow, GitHub, or client-side code.

Memberstack REST API

Base REST URL:

https://admin.memberstack.com

Use X-API-KEY headers with your secret key to authenticate with the API.

"X-API-KEY": "sk_sb_..."
