Registering an API Client
Before you can use the Patreon API, you need to create an application client and API keys for your campaign.
-
Navigate to: https://www.patreon.com/portal/registration/register-clients
-
Click the
Create Client
button -
You must set the
Client API Version
to2
, and fill in theApp Name
,Description
, andRedirect URIs
fields.The value used in the
Redirect URIs
field depends on how you plan to configure and use the plugin (below). You can edit this value at any time later if necessary.If you plan to handle everything within the game client, then the game client will expect the redirect at
http://localhost:8080/login
by default. This can be customized, though.If you plan to use your own web service to proxy the authentication, then the
Redirect URI
should point to your web server.
Once you have created a Client, you will need the Client ID
and Client Secret
.
