Creating an API Key

API Credentials can be created via the Device Manager UI.

To access this menu, the API Credential Manager permission is required on your user account. See Users and Access

Permissions for the API Credentials work as per user account permissions. In that they can be restricted to only work on certain device groups, and perform certain actions. 

1. Set the Device Group which the credentials will be able to access/control. Generally this will be your client group - but it can be limited further down to individual client groups if required. And give the credentials a name. 
2. Generate a key, and optionally store it. 
3. Set the permissions.
