Developers

Access API keys through Console.

Overview#

API keys can be created and retrieved within the Developers section of Console.

• API keys are an id and secret combination used to authenticate API requests.

Both Sandbox and Production keys are available. Sandbox API keys allow you to retrieve sample data, and Production API keys are used when connecting real accounts.

API keys#

You can generate as many sets of Sandbox and Production API keys in Console as needed. For example, you could have a set of API keys for every Console member on your team, or sets of API keys that correspond to a specific Console member role.

Argyle provides both Sandbox and Production API environments. In the Sandbox API environment for example, authorize requests using your Sandbox API key and secret, and make requests to various endpoints using the Sandbox https://api-sandbox.argyle.com/v2 base URL.

To generate new API keys:

1. Select "Create API key" in the upper-right of the API keys section of Console.
2. In the pop-up, enter a name for the new set of API keys and select an environment.
