How to create an API key

All of our current products use the Sanbase account as reference. Sangraphs let you directly use Sanbase as a login option, but this does not work for the API or for Sansheets. This is where an API key comes in.

When you make a Sanbase account you are able to create an API key that carries the same access rights, to use with these other products. The access rights that are assigned to this key depend on your subscription plan.

Creating an API key

Creating API keys is done in the account settings of Sanbase, SanAPI or Sansheets.

In accounts settings you should click on the Generate button to create the new key. The key will be shown as a string. You can copy it and use it wherever you need. The key can be revoked from the same place anytime.
