Generate Secret Key
Browsee allows you to import data via its APIs. For using our APIs, you need to generate a secret API key which you should never make public (more about Secret key security below).
How to generate a secret key?
Go to Your Account or Settings page
Go to Integrations tab from left navigation
Click on "Generate New Key" for getting an API Key
Once, you click on the button, you will get a key. Remember to store your key somewhere safe because as soon as you navigate from this page, you will not be able to retrieve or restore this generated token.
However, you can always generate a new one.
How to keep the secret key a secret?
It is important to understand that anyone who has access to this secret key will be able to access your account's data. Thus it's important to keep it a secret. Here are somethings you should never do with your secret key
Use it from the client side Javascript code. Client-side javascript code is public to anyone on your website and they can then reproduce the same code.
Check it in public repositories or any repository accessible to anyone whom you do not want to access Browsee's data.
