You will require admin or user management permissions in Manage to complete this step.

If you self-host your Connectwise and are restricting IP addresses or geolocation, please ensure you whitelist all IP addresses we may connect with.

You may either create API keys on an existing user, or you can create a specific API Member account. We recommend using an API member account for tracking and auditing purpose so we will document the process of using a new API user.
