Generate API Secret

An API (application programming interface) credential, also known as an API secret, must be generated for a user before that user can use the Cloud Email Protection API.

TIP: Only users with the User Administrator role can generate API credentials.

  1. Go to Manage > Users.
  2. Click a username.
  3. In the API Access UID section, click Generate API Secret.
  4. Copy and save the API secret in a secure place. You will need to enter it on the API Documentation page when you test an API or when you are using an Cloud Email Protection integration via API.
