Integration Key

Integration Key

 

SupportCenter Plus enables administrators configure multiple API keys to allow delegated access for different integration requirements. Apart from creating and managing integration keys, administrators can also reassign them to different support reps as and when they are required.

 

Add a new key

To add a new integration key,

  1. Go to Admin > Developer Space (Apps & Add-ons in the old UI) > Integration Key.

  2. Click New.

  3. Fill out the displayed form using the pointers given below:

    • Name: Provide a unique name for the integration key.

    • Roles: Select the roles to associate with the key.

    • Key expires on: Choose whether the key has a validity period. Configure the expiry date if you choose the Expires on option.

    • Description: Provide a short description or add notes on the integration key.

View key

All generated keys will be encrypted on the list view page. To view a specific key,

After you reassign a key to another support rep, you cannot perform any action on the key.

Configure key status

All integration keys will be active by default. To mark an integration key as inactive,

Delete key


To delete an integration key,

  2. Click OK to proceed. The key will be deleted from the application.

 



On deleting a key, all integrations configured using the key will be disabled forever.

Notifications  

This section lists the notifications triggered upon various activities performed in an integration key. You can view the notifications by clicking the bell icon on the header panel.

 

  • When an admin user reassigns a key to you, you will receive a push notification on the event.

  • When the keys of a deleted user are auto-assigned to you, you will receive a push notification.

  • The keys of a deleted user will be auto-assigned to you, if you have removed the user.

If the user you deleted has keys configured in instances where you do not have access, the keys will be associated to a random user with admin privileges in that instance.

  • If a key is about to expire in three days, the key owner will receive a push notification to take necessary action.

  • To configure the day to send the reminder notification, contact support at supportcenterplus-support@manageengine.com.

  • When a key has expired, the key owner will receive a push notification.

  • When a custom role associated with a key is deleted from the application, the key owner will receive a push notification.
