Web3 development demands efficiency, flexibility, and a seamless user experience. The thirdweb Dashboard is designed to simplify blockchain development by providing powerful tools for contract management, analytics, and team collaboration. Whether you’re tracking API usage, configuring permissions, or managing fee sharing, the dashboard centralizes everything you need to build and scale your Web3 projects.
Navigating the thirdweb Dashboard
The thirdweb Dashboard is structured into intuitive tabs, each serving a specific function. Let’s explore these sections in detail to understand how they empower Web3 developers.
Overview Tab: A Snapshot of Your Projects
The Overview Tab is your command center, giving you instant visibility into your Web3 applications.
See it like your homepage, offering you a quick-look and overview of:
All active projects.
All deployed smart contracts.
Your app’s latest transactions and interactions.
& Real-time insights into contract activity, transaction volumes, and system alerts.
In short, it’s the one-stop-shop to let you know exactly how your app is running.
API Keys Tab: Secure and Manage Access
Next, you have the API Keys tab. API keys are the backbone of thirdweb’s services, allowing secure interactions with your contracts and applications. To do anything with thirdweb, you’ll need to generate one. Luckily, the thirdweb Dashboard makes that an easy and pleasant process.
And that’s not all, let’s look at the full details of how you can manage API keys with the dashboard:
Generate unique API keys for different use cases.
Define granular access control for API requests.
Securely handle authentication for your Web3 applications.

Usage Analytics Tab: Access Data about your app
Understanding how your application interacts is crucial for optimizing performance. At thirdweb, we understand the importance of analytics for projects big and small. That’s why our analytics tab offers a comprehensive overview of your app and its usage. Dive in to:
Track request volumes and response times.
Identify patterns in API consumption.
Analyze interactions by type (e.g., contract calls, wallet connections).
Monitor user engagement and transaction behaviors.
Settings Tab: Tailor Your Web3 Configuration
Customization is key to building scalable blockchain applications that resonate with users. We’re all about innovation here at thirdweb, which is why we design our tools for full customization—no app is the same, and so its tech stack should reflect that.
With the thirdweb dashboard, it’s easy to access, control and configure specialized and custom functions and features to make your user experience truly unique.
Here’s how you can customize your app:
Choose specific blockchain networks and RPC endpoints.
Define how wallets interact with your app
Control revenue-sharing mechanics for transactions.
Customize settings based on specific application needs.
Team Management Tab: Streamline Collaboration
Web3 projects often involve multiple developers, security auditors, and stakeholders. And with decentralized applications and projects, this can often cause friction. To make onboarding and offboarding users simple and secure, the thirdweb Dashboard offers the Teams feature.
Using teams, you can setup access, roles and permissions, including:
Assigning permissions based on user responsibilities.
Adding new members seamlessly.
Defining who can view, edit, or deploy contracts.
Revoking permissions and access whenever needed
This is a game-changer for large teams, web3 development services, and ecosystems. No need to worry about how to secure access to specific features or build custom security mechanisms—simply access the dashboard and make your choice, no development skills needed.
What Can You Do with the thirdweb Dashboard?
The thirdweb Dashboard provides more than a simple interface; offering advanced tools to enhance Web3 development. Here are key functionalities developers can leverage:
Deploy & Track Smart Contracts
Smart contracts are the foundation of Web3 applications, and thirdweb simplifies the entire lifecycle of contract deployment and tracking.
Effortless Deployment – Deploy smart contracts without writing complex scripts.
Contract Management – Monitor active contracts, verify deployment details, and manage versions.
Interaction Tracking – View real-time contract interactions and transaction history.
Security & Updates – Keep contracts secure and roll out updates when necessary.

Implement Seamless Blockchain Interactions with RPC Edge
Reliable and efficient RPC communication is essential for Web3 applications, which is why we make it easy to access and manage all EVM RPC Endpoints directly from the thirdweb dashboard. Here’s what you can do with the dashboard:
Obtain a Client ID & Secret Key for secure authentication.
Confifure RPC edge to unlock faster blockchain interactions.
Access enhanced API reliability, reducing request failures.
Access and Update Your Monetization Strategy via our Universal Bridge
The thirdweb dashboard also lets you access and manage your fee Sharing model settings, courtesy of thirdweb’s web3 payment solution, Universal Bridge. With the Universal bridge, your users are charged a 1% transaction fee; 70% of which is distributed directly to the developer.
The thirdweb dashboard is your gateway to managing those profits, letting you specify payout addresses for fee distribution and manage your payments.
Why Use the thirdweb Dashboard?
The thirdweb Dashboard consolidates everything a Web3 developer needs into a single, efficient interface. Key advantages include:
Simplified API Management
With thirdweb, anyone can manage API keys and access secure authentication. The interface is simple and intuitive, meaning the founder of any project can access and manage API keys—no dev experience needed.
Advanced Analytics & Monitoring
Not all web3 development platforms offer analytics, but we’re serious about helping developers make data driven decisions. That’s why we offer analytics for as many products and features as possible: to help you identify specific user interactions and adapt your roadmap accordingly.
Team Collaboration & Security
Managing multiple projects can be a chore—especially when you have a separate team working on each project. Our approach to collaboration means it’s easy to manage all levels of access. You can access and manage API key access, add and remove members of your team, and set up custom security mechanisms. The choice is yours!
Flexibility of Integration
Finally, the thirdweb dashboard also offers flexibility: you can easily use it to access multiple development frameworks, making it adaptable to different workflows—no matter what you’re building.
React & React Native SDKs for seamless frontend integration.
TypeScript support for robust applications.
Unity integration for blockchain-powered gaming.
