About

This article describes how to self-manage your API authentication.

Management

You can manage your API login and Token values by logging into your site admin and selecing 'API Settings' from the Admin menu. On this screen, you can define a username/password to use with your API. This username will NOT count against your admin seats, however it can only be used to authenticate through the API and cannot be used as a regular admin acct.

Your site should already have a token defined for it, but if you wish you can generate a new one. Please be aware that any changes to these values will require that any existing code that uses the i4a API must be updated with your changed values.
