# Kno Commerce - How do I link my account?

# Overview

To authenticate with Kno Commerce, you need:

1. **Client ID** - The client ID from your Kno Commerce API Access settings.
2. **Client Secret** - The client secret from your Kno Commerce API Access settings.

This guide will walk you through creating an API client and obtaining your credentials.

### Prerequisites

* You must have a Kno Commerce account with admin access.
* You need access to the [Kno Commerce dashboard](https://app.knocommerce.com).

### Step 1: Creating an API Client

1. Log in to your [Kno Commerce dashboard](https://app.knocommerce.com).
2. Navigate to **Settings** > **API Access**.
3. Click the **+** button to register a new API client.
4. Enter a name and select permissions. For the URL, use `https://app-api.knocommerce.com` — it is not required but must be a valid value.
5. Click **Save** to create the client.
6. After the client is created, you will be provided with:
   * **Client ID** — Your API client identifier
   * **Client Secret** — Your API client secret (shown only once, so save it securely)

<Note>
  The Client Secret is only displayed once when you create the client. Make sure to copy and store it securely. If you lose it, you'll need to generate a new client.
</Note>

### Step 2: Enter credentials in the Connect UI

Once you have your credentials:

1. Open the form where you need to authenticate with Kno Commerce.
2. Enter the **Client ID** and **Client Secret** in their designated fields.
3. Submit the form, and you should be successfully authenticated.
