Hyundais seem To have a problem with the crankshaft position sensor. You can get one at a junkyard or order online (dealer price is stupid high). Its very easy to get to and replace. With the limited information you gave, it could also be a starter but i would try the crankshaft sensor 1st

check your rockers mine did the same thing and i found i had 6 rockers that had fallen off

It does not turn over. Only a small grunt and nothing. Lights and everything stays on.

Mine (2013 with a key) is doing the exact same thing you guys describe. Lights, power windows, radio, everything else works, but it will not turn over. It makes a sound like it's try to turn, but then just quits. Here's the kicker though - if it sits for approx. 1.5-2hrs, it starts back up with no problems. Then as soon as I turn it off, boom it won't crank again for another 1.5 to 2hrs. Rinse/repeat. Its not an issue driving to work, but if I have to run up to the store or any kind of errand, I have to take a chance that it won't get stolen and leave it running. Or, if I go somewhere and know I have to go somewhere else in a short time frame, I have to leave it running in my drive way. It's SOO frustrating! Does anyone else's car do this?
