By now you've created an org and have successfully logged in as an administrator. Before you can begin making API requests, you will need to first generate an API key.
Note: For our examples in this guide, we are completing each step in a development environment.
To generate an API key, complete the following steps after logging in to your org:
1.
Select Settings > Apps on the left-hand menu.
2.
Click New App. The Create App screen is displayed.
3.
Enter a name for the new app in the Label field.
4.
(Optional) Check Sessions to create a session-based app.
5.
(Optional) Uncheck CSRF Protection. If this is checked, you will need to send the medable-csrf-token header with each authenticated request.
6.
Click Create App. The API key appears in the API Key column.
Tip: CSRF protection is not necessary for this example, but we highly recommend enabling it for production web apps.
In our example, we created a new app called NewHealth App with the API key mwidxhb8ShcqmV1B9iOYJh.
