Hello,
In order to retrieve a merchan'ts API key, do we need to publish an app with clover? Is there a way to obtain the API key without publishing an app or can we do it with a web app (not native android). Any help is appreciated.
Thank you!

You can do it with a web app. You still need to create the web-app and it needs to be approved (for production). You will then follow the OAuth flow documented here - https://docs.clover.com/clover-platform/docs/using-oauth-20 to obtain a token.
Furthermore, tokens are of course per merchant. For each merchant that you need to access their data, the merchant must auth with your web app. There's no "back door" method to obtain tokens for a merchant.
What is the process for the merchant to auth the web app for access to their data?
You will need to follow the OAuth flow that I linked to above. Here it is again - https://docs.clover.com/clover-platform/docs/using-oauth-20.
