To use the mobile app with your WHMCS installation, you'll need to establish a connection to it by following these steps:
- Open the configuration.php file found in your WHMCS installation directory using a text editor
- Add the following line to the end of the file:$api_access_key = "YOUR_API_ACCESS_KEY";
- Replace YOUR_API_ACCESS_KEY with the key you'd like to use.
- A tool such as https://passwordsgenerator.net/ can be used to generate a random key
- Save changes to the configuration.php file and upload to your server
- Open the mobile WHMCS application
- Upon the first login, you will be asked to enter your authentication details:
- The WHMCS Installation URL should be set to the System URL found on your admin area Setup > General Settings > General tab
- Enter your admin username and password
- Enter the API Access Key created above
- Finally, click the Save button
If everything was done correctly, you will be taken to the mobile app home screen and can begin using the app.
