How to access Kaniwani/ KameSame

WaniKani API And Third-Party Apps
#1

hey WaniKanians!

I´m new here and already read some threats about what to use apart from WaniKani to learn effectively Japanese. I´ve seen some of you talking about KaniWani and KameSame and wanted to give it a try too, but… I don´t get API at all :slightly_frowning_face: ! Could someone please explain me how to use The “WaniKani V2 token” thing to be able to sign in? call me stupid but I feel quite lost right now. I hope someone can help me.

thanks in advance :slight_smile:

Wanikani considers your data to be private. If you want to use Kaniwani or Kamesame you need to give them permission to read your data. You do this by giving them an API token.

You can get an API token here:

api
api386×590 53.4 KB

You click on the “Generate a New Token” button and the token you need will appear. For Kamesame and Kaniwani you don’t need to set the permissions options. Just use the defaults and it will be fine.

To use the token you copy and paste it into the input field of Kaniwani or Kamesame.
