Overview

Prerequisites

  • An Ecologi account. If you don’t have one, create it on the onboarding page.

Step 1: Generate an API key

  1. Log in to Ecologi and select Integrations in the left-hand menu.

Step 2: Enter your API key in the Connect UI

  1. Open the form where you need to authenticate with Ecologi.
  2. Paste the key you copied in Step 1 into the API Key field.
  3. Submit the form. The connection is saved without checking the key: if the key is wrong, the first API request returns an authentication error.
