API Key

In order to access the Aeris APIs, your application needs to pass an API key to the Aeris server that hosts the interface. The key is a secret token specific to your account which identifies your application. It ensures only your application can use the Aeris API to perform device operations in your account.

Because the API Key is specific to your account and is requested for the operations on your devices, you must ensure that it is kept secret within your organization and that it is not shared with any other organization.

Your API Key can be found on the Account Information page in AerPort. Remember that only the Account Manager(s) of your account have access to this page.

If your level of access to the account is set to User and you need the API Key for your application, please ask your Account Manager.
