Gateway Hub

Application Keys

Overview

The Application keys page allows you to connect to external applications securely using OAuth 2.0. You can use this page to manage OAuth 2.0 client credentials.

For more information about OAuth 2.0, see the OAuth documentation.

API key credentials are composed of a client_id and a client_secret. These can be used by an external application to authenticate their identity with Gateway Hub before requesting authorisation to access data. You can create new API key credentials, regenerate the client_secret associated with an identity, or remove API key credentials.

Caution: You cannot recover API keys once you have closed the New API Key window.
