API key

Dear Sirs!
In your "Getting Started with Visa Developer" says "Use the following URI:sandbox.api.visa.com/vdp/helloworld?apikey= (replace the value of API key query string parameter with the actual API key that you received from the Visa Developer Center)."
But in my Dashboard I do not see any "API key". I only see the "User ID" and "Password".
Please explain how can I get it "API key"?

Re: API key

Hi there,

 

You have to generate the API key.

 

Please take a look at Test App Creation in the Getting Started Guide: https://developer.visa.com/guides/vdpguide#test_app_creation

 

  1. Go to your Dashboard.

  2. Click on Create a new application.

  3. Specify Application Name and Application Description (Note: This can be maximum 1000 characters).

  4. Select the APIs you are interested to use in your app.

    Note: For some APIs, you may have additional Agreements (Terms and Conditions).

    1. Depending on the APIs you select, submit a Certificate Signing Request (CSR):
    2. Generate a CSR for me (default)
    • Submit my own CSR

 

Once your app is created, you can use the following options:

  • Keys/APIs to access your API credentials.

 

Hope this helps!

 

Thanks,

Ricardo
