API access and integrations

Written by Fredrik Muri Slettestøl

This article shows you as an organization administrator how to give another system access to data in SourceMagnet.


Create an API client

  1. Go to Access management and select the API tab.

  2. Select Generate API Client.

  3. Keep the details you are given. They are shown only this once.

⚠️ Warning: The key gives access to your organization data. Never share it by email or chat, and never put it into code that is shared. If it has leaked, create a new one and stop using the old.


What it is used for

An API client is used when another system needs to fetch or send data automatically, for example an accounting system that needs contract details.

If a person is going to sign in, what they need is not an API client but an ordinary user account.
