Introduction

The "Easy JsonAPI: API Key Signup" module is a specialized Odoo application that extends the functionality of the core JSON:API framework. Developed by EKIKA, this module is designed for businesses that need to enable public user interactions like signup, login, and password change through a secure API key. This is particularly useful for external applications that need to communicate with your Odoo database, providing a robust authentication method without the security risks of transmitting plain text passwords.

Key Features

  • API Key-Based Authentication: Provides a secure way for users to log in and interact with Odoo by using a unique API key for authentication.

  • Public API Calls: Enables public calls for signup, login, and password changes, making it ideal for integration with third-party applications.

  • No Code Required: The module is designed for easy maintenance and configuration, allowing administrators to manage API calls without needing to write any code.

  • Security: Enhances the security of API requests by preventing unauthorized access and ensuring data is managed securely.

Benefits

  • Streamlined Integration: Simplifies the process of integrating Odoo with external systems or mobile applications by providing a secure and consistent API.

  • Enhanced Security: Offers a more secure alternative to traditional password-based API authentication.

  • Ease of Use: Reduces the technical complexity of setting up and managing API access for public users.

  • Automated Workflows: Facilitates the automation of user-related tasks, such as user creation and login, reducing manual effort.

Compatibility & Technical Details

The module has a technical name of easy_jsonapi_apikey_signup. It is compatible with Odoo versions 15.0 and later, including version 18.0. This module depends on several other apps, including easy_jsonapi and api_framework_base, and requires the Discuss (mail) application. It is licensed under the Odoo Proprietary License v1.0 (OPL-1).
