Creating and granting permissions to application keys

Creating application keys enables you to give EMS access and permissions to any applications you create, either within your EMS or externally. Once created, an application key must then be granted the necessary permissions within your EMS (as by default, application keys are created without permissions).

Admins can also receive system notifications whenever a new application key has been created. See: Managing your system notifications

Procedure

To create an application key and grant it permissions:

Click Admin & Settings - Applications.
Click New Application Key, enter a key name, and then click Save.
Copy the application key displayed.
Note: You can only view an application key once, so make sure to copy it when you create it. If you don't have a copy of the keys on your list, you'll need to create a new one.
Click Permissions.
Locate the service you need and click Edit.
In this example, we’re updating the User Provisioning service.
Select the required template for your application and, if required, enable SCIM permissions.
In this example, we are granting our application with manage permissions and enabling SCIM permissions.
Click Save.
Add the application key to the authorization header of your requests using the following format:
```
Authorization: AppKey APPLICATION_KEY
```
Your application now has the correct permissions within your EMS.
