Steps
Enable the Developer API add-on in Workiz from the Feature Center/Marketplace, then get your API token and API secret from Settings > Integrations > Developer
Build requests against the REST base URL https://api.workiz.com/api/v1/{api_token}/ — the token is embedded in the URL path, not a header
POST to the job/create/ endpoint with customer contact info, service address, job type, and requested time window
Read the returned JobSerial/UUID from the response to confirm the job was created
Assign or update the technician on the job using the job update fields documented at developer.workiz.com
Poll or webhook-subscribe to confirm the job's dispatch status changed as expected
Known gotchas
The API token sits in the URL path rather than an Authorization header — treat request URLs as sensitive and avoid logging them in plaintext
The Developer API is a paid add-on that must be explicitly enabled before any token/secret is issued; a fresh Workiz account will not have API access by default
Community PHP/Python SDKs on GitHub are unofficial and may lag the live schema — treat developer.workiz.com as the only authoritative reference
