API documentation

The TablesReady API allows you to add new walk-ins and reservations to your waitlist directly from some other source system.

You are also able to use our Webhooks to get party information back out of TablesReady.

Authentication

To begin, go to Settings > Integrations to enable the API and get your API key:

To send requests to the TablesReady API, you must use this API key to authenticate.
