Administer API Key

This feature is available only in the Open Source Edition.

To connect to a data source that uses OAuth, you must first create an API Key. See OAuth Data Sources below for the data sources that require the API key.

If an API Key has not been created (as described below), the user will be shown an error message when they attempt to create the new data source.
