  2. Username - Your Paligo account email address.

This guide will walk you through finding your instance name and generating an API key in Paligo.

Prerequisites:

  • You must have a registered Paligo account.
  • You must be an admin user in Paligo — only admin users can access the API.
  • The Paligo API is a public interface that provides access to several of Paligo’s core features. Developers can use it to get external applications to interact with Paligo. You can find more information, including details of its endpoints, in the Paligo API documentation.

Instructions:

Step 1: Find your Paligo instance name
