API Key Application Timeframe

Hello,

I applied for an API Key yesterday and I am currently still waiting for the API Key section of the application to be populated. We don’t mind waiting but we need to start in the next week developing our system to query the CH API, out of interest how long should we expect to wait before the API Key is granted?

Thank you,

Samuel

Samuel,

The API key should be generated immediately. If you click on the “your applications” link in the top of the screen when signed in do you have a list of applications and a long string in the client id column? The client id is the API key, so please use this.

If you click on the application name I am assuming the table has a blank api key section. We have a bug at the moment with that screen which should show the API key, and we also understand that naming it as client id in one place and api key in another is poor and will be changing in the near future.

Hope this clarifies the situation.

Thanks

Mark.

Hi Mark,

Thank you for clarifying. That makes sense, I appreciate you getting back to me.
