How do I permission and securely send my API key?

If you are integrating with a third party and need to securely share an API key, please follow the instructions below. Please NEVER send an API key via email or messaging app.

Step 1:

Log into your TransactAPI dashboard and locate your API keys. View and edit permission for API keys is only given out with written approval from the SLA signer on the account. Please have the SLA signer reach out to techsupport@northcapital.com if this permission needs to be granted for a user.

Choose an API key that is not in use and will be unique to the 3rd party with whom you are sharing. A new key can be added if needed (if you don't see the Add New Key button, please have the SLA signer reach out to techsupport@northcapital.com to add this permission to your user) .

Step 2: Assign Permissions to the key

Permission for each API call can be granted or revoked depending on what your 3rd party needs access to. 

Step 3: Share Key via secure sharing folder

API keys should only ever be shared via secure folder such as Dropbox. Please NEVER send an API key via email or messaging app.
