How to generate API key for user

Hi,

maybe this is trivial question but unfortunately can't find how to generate
API key/secret for user.

On account screen i've got such information (screen included). Only
available options are:
* Edit - where I can edit only "Name" and "Network Domain".
* Update Resource Count
* Disable account
* Lock account
* Delete account

Nothing else. Can somebody tell me where I can find option for generating
API/Secret Key?

Regards,
p.

Hello Peceka,

The keys are attached to a user rather than an account:

First make sure you are logged in as a root or domain admin, then go into accounts > click on your account > click “view users” > click the username > click the rightmost icon (white key in a black square) to generate the keys.

You can now copy the API and secret key from the same page.

Hope this helps.

Navigate to Accounts -> YOUR_ACCOUNT -> "View Users" (on the right) -> YOUR_USER -> "Generate Keys" (a square symbol)

Peceka,

Go to the users (“View Users”) of the account in the Accounts and then from the Accounts -> Users, Go to Quickview or Detailed view of the user, you can see “Generate Keys” action button. See the screenshot attached.

Thanks,
Suresh
