How to set up an OrbiSCADA API key?

To use the OrbiSCADA API, you need an API key linked to your user account. API keys cannot be created by users directly in the system. If you need API access, please contact support and request an API key for your user account.

Your API access follows the same permissions as your normal user account. The API does not bypass access restrictions. If your user only has access to selected controllers, or only has limited permissions, the API will follow those same limits. Command actions done by a user are displayed in the activity log, however its not displayed if a command action was done through the API or interface.
