Description: Adding Flock API keys allows you to change Canary Configs, Manage Alerts, Mass Create Canarytokens within a single flock. Our API documentation can be found here. If you want to create an API for access to your entire Console, see here. 

Please note: If you wish to make use of this functionality, please drop our Support team a mail on support@canary.tools so that we can enable it for you.

In this article, we'll cover creating a Flock API Key that can be used to make API calls to manage its flock.

Step 1:

Log in to your Console.

Step 2:

Navigate to the flock settings page.

Step 3:

Scroll down to the Flock API Keys section, and click the + icon to begin creating a new API key.

Step 4:

Add a reminder to identify the key in future (eg. "Infrastructure Team, Atlanta"), and hit create.

Step 5:

Copy the Auth Token value, and you're ready to start using the API to manage this flock. See the API  docs for the various endpoints you can use this with.
