Developer Console Quick Start

A quick start guide for Developer Console.

Developer Console

The Developer Console provides a centralized, role-based experience
for managing API credentials and access rights. The Developer Console is
only available in UKG Authentication environments.

Administrator Capabilities

Administrators can:

  • Create and manage machine-to-machine API credentials
  • Assign and control access using existing role-based permissions
  • View credential metadata, including creation details and usage timestamps
  • Revoke or rotate credentials as needed to support secure integration management

The Developer Console streamlines API access configuration and replaces
manual or ticket-based provisioning processes, giving administrators
direct visibility and control over integration security.
