System Settings : The API Keys Module : Add an API Key
  
Add an API Key
API Keys are created and added to VBrick Rev for linking devices for use with Rev. You must create an API key for each type of device you plan to use with Rev, including LDAP Connectors. Once the API key is created, enter the key in the Rev API field of its corresponding device before you add the device in the Device module in Rev.
 
Tip: See Add a Device in VBrick Rev - Initial Configuration and Set Up for more information on how to set up devices.
 
*To add an API key:
1. Navigate to Admin > System Settings > API Keys > Add Key button.
2. Enter a descriptive API Key Name.
3. Enter the API Key. You may use any combination of letters, symbols, and numbers of your choice.
4. Enter any redirect URIs needed if you plan to use any integrations and the OAuth API. This field is checked that the redirect URIs specified in the authorization and token request match and provides an additional security check to ensure that the correct user is making the request. Multiple URIs may be provided but at least one must match the authorization request to be redirected.
5. Click Create.
6. Use this same key in the device you plan to add and link to Rev for use. See the corresponding device’s Admin technical manual for more information on where to enter this key.
7. Return to the main API module to display the API’s Secret that is generated (for use with Rev’s REST authorization API) if needed.
