Creating an API Client

Use the Corti Console to Create an API Client

Updated over a week ago

Introduction

The Corti Console is home base for our customers and extends self service functionality to you, providing the tools you need to build great things. The Corti Console is a key tool for customers integrating with Corti's API to be able to create an API key and integrate with whatever tool you have built.



Navigating to the API Clients Page

Upon first login, you will notice the name of your Project in the top left corner of your screen (in the screenshot below, the Project Name is 'Test2 Gerrit'. Along the left side menu, you will see the active modules for your project. Upon login, your Project Home page will be your default page. From this page, either select API Clients in your left menu or select Create Client from your Project Home.

API Clients Page

The API Clients page within the Corti Console contains all created API Clients for your Project.


Accessing Your API Credentials

On the API Client page, click on the API Client that you want to access credentials for. This will expand the client credentials as below:

From the expanded menu, you can now see the following information:

  • Client ID

  • Client Secret

  • Environment ID

  • Tenant Name

Using this information, you can either use the Authentication Quickstart option to get preconfigured code to aid you in authentication, or you are able to use that information with the Get Started page in Corti's API documentation to use the provided information.




Creating an API Client

To create an API client, you'll select Create API Client in the top right corner of the page.

From the Create New API Client modal, you will

  1. Enter an API Client name - This will serve as the UI display name

  2. Select the data residency region for the API Client.

  3. Click Create Client ID to complete the creation process

As the API Client Name is entered, the Client ID will be auto-generated using an API friendly format with the project name appended to the beginning of the Client ID.
