Step 1: Find your Access Key

  • To find your Access Key, log into ConnectWise Sell and find your Access Key within the URL.

              Please note:  When accessing ConnectWise Sell, log in directly to ConnectWise Sell and avoid accessing it through 

              the CWM Portal.

  • Your Access Key includes your subdomain followed by an underscore and the word "azure"                                        e.g. accesskey=subdomain_azure  
     
  • Keep this information handy for a later step.


Step 2: Create API Keys

API keys are used for authentication with the API. Authentication with a username and password is no longer allowed. To create your API Keys follow the following steps:

  • Go to Settings
  • Now click on the Organization Setup tab
  • Find 'API Keys'
  • Now click on the 'Add' button on the top right of the screen
  • Enter a description to help you identify your API key. 
  • Click Generate Key
  • Save the public and private keys in a text file. The private key cannot be retrieved later. Click OK when you are finished generating these.

Step 3: Send the information to us.

  • Your Access Key (from step 1)
  • API - Public and private keys 
  • Please send this information to support@cognition360.com.
