To extend the functionality of your Blackbaud products, your organization can use additional applications created by Blackbaud, providers in the
Blackbaud Partner Marketplace, someone at your organization, or other approved external developers.These applications securely access your data via
SKY API, so you can do more with your constituents, fundraising, and accounting efforts.
For example, previously highlighted applications include:
To use an application, an admin at your organization can enable it using its unique ID, acquired from the developer or Blackbaud Partner Marketplace. (
Admins! To manage your organization's apps, select
Control Panel,
Applications. To use an app, connect it under
Available apps or enable it with its unique ID under
Connected apps.)
Once an admin enables an app, you can install it and authorize it to access your
Raiser's Edge NXT data, respecting the security rights of your Blackbaud ID. For more information, see the
Applications Help.
Interested in developing an app using SKY API? Sign up for a free developer account, which provides access to industry-standard and open REST APIs that extend the functionality of
Raiser's Edge NXT. Upon approval, you'll receive your own
SKY API subscription key and can register your applications and enable those you develop for your organization. For more information, see the
SKY API Getting Started page.
