Metadata Plus keys

To access all of the features of Metadata Plus, you’ll need to create an API Key. Once you’ve subscribed to Plus, your technical contact will receive an email to set a password to access key manager. This is where you’ll create and manage API keys for Metadata Plus access. If you subscribed to Plus before August 2023, you’ll be using a token.

Create a new API Key

  1. Login to key manager
  2. Under API Keys, click “Add New”
  3. Give the key a name (description)
  4. Copy the API Key (Note: The key will only be displayed once, so you must copy and paste it somewhere safe)

Delete an API Key

Note: a deleted key cannot be recovered.

  1. Under API Keys, find the correct key and click the three dots to its right
  2. Choose “Delete” from the drop down menu
  3. Type DELETE in the modal and click ok. The key now cannot be used to access Plus services. The key cannot be recovered. It may take up to 60 seconds for this to propagate through the system.

Edit a key’s description

  1. Under API Keys, find the correct key and click the three dots to its right
  2. Choose “Edit” from the drop down menu
  3. Edit the key’s description and click ok.
