The Creator's Access Token from a client of your own.
About 3 minutes.
Get the key
- Open patreon.com/portal/registration/register-clients while signed in as the creator, and create a client (API version 2; any name; https://revwarn.com as the address).
- Open the client and copy its Creator's Access Token.
- Paste it on your dashboard's Connections page under Patreon and press Save and test.
Don't send keys by email or chat. Paste them only on your dashboard's Connections page, where they're encrypted before they're stored.
Which site earned it
Your members appear in the Subscriptions panel: recurring revenue, new members, cancellations and declined payments. Each paid charge counts in your revenue. The campaign is matched to a site by its name; otherwise match it once on the Revenue uploads page.
Keeping it connected
Patreon's creator tokens expire after about a month. When the sync starts failing, RevWarn warns you; refresh the token on your Patreon client page and paste the new one.
