Quick Start

What you’ll build

Before you start, make sure you have the following in place:

• A Paycux account with access to the project you are configuring.
• An API key for the environment you are working in. Staging keys start with sk_test_; production keys start with sk_live_.
• Admin access on the system you are connecting, so you can create the application and read its metadata.
• A redirect URI registered in the Paycux dashboard under Developer → Redirects.

Before getting started

Quick Start is part of the Paycux platform. This page explains what it does, when to reach for it, and the smallest working setup you can ship.

Everything below applies to both environments. Build and test in staging, then promote the same configuration to production without changing your code — only the API key and client ID differ.

API object definitions

API object definitions is handled by Quick Start rather than by your application code. Paycux exposes it through the same API surface as the rest of the platform, so the client you already configured needs no additional setup.

Configuration lives in the dashboard and is versioned per environment. Change it in staging, confirm the behaviour, then apply the same change to production.

Create a new directory connection

Directory Sync keeps your user list in step with the customer's directory. Paycux receives create, update and delete operations and normalizes them into a single shape regardless of the source system.

Deletes arrive as deactivations. Treat a deactivated user as a user who can no longer sign in, and decide separately whether to delete their data.

Okta

Okta is handled by Quick Start rather than by your application code. Paycux exposes it through the same API surface as the rest of the platform, so the client you already configured needs no additional setup.

Configuration lives in the dashboard and is versioned per environment. Change it in staging, confirm the behaviour, then apply the same change to production.

Entra ID (Azure AD)

Entra ID (Azure AD) is handled by Quick Start rather than by your application code. Paycux exposes it through the same API surface as the rest of the platform, so the client you already configured needs no additional setup.

Google Workspace
