Steps
Obtain a Global API Key from the Genea Portal (the current key type; the legacy per-user API Token is being phased out and doesn't support all endpoints)
Send requests with header Authorization: Bearer {api_token}, scoping calls with customer_uuid and location_uuid path/query variables as required
List doors, access groups, elevator access groups, controllers (SCP panels), interfaces, and schedules through their respective resource endpoints
Paginate list responses using the page and page_size query params (page_size accepts roughly 1-100)
Respect per-endpoint rate limits (e.g. list endpoints and create endpoints have documented distinct req/min ceilings) and add retry/backoff for 429s
Known gotchas
Endpoints tied to the legacy User API Token (like 'me'/list-my-locations style calls) are not supported when using the newer Global API Key — pick the key type that matches the endpoints you need
Rate limits differ per endpoint (e.g. create vs list), so a single global throttle setting can still trigger 429s on specific calls
Audit/event, custom attribute, and card/PIN endpoints exist alongside the core door/group model — confirm the exact resource name in the live Postman docs before coding against it
