## Related resources |

|
|
|
Refer to [Action Network's API documentation](https://actionnetwork.org/docs/){:target=_blank .external-link} for more information about working with the service. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Using API key |
|
|
|
|
|
To configure this credential, you'll need an [Action Network](https://actionnetwork.org/){:target=_blank .external-link} account with [API key access enabled](#request-api-access) and: |
|
|
|
|
|
- An **API Key** |
|
|
|
|
|
To get an API key: |
|
|
|
|
|
1. Log in to your Action Network account. |
|
|
2. From the **Start Organizing** menu, select **Details >** [**API & Sync**](https://actionnetwork.org/apis){:target=_blank .external-link}. |
|
|
3. Select the list you want to generate an API key for. |
|
|
4. Generate an API key for that list. |
|
|
5. Copy the **API Key** and enter it in your n8n credential. |
|
|
|
|
|
Refer to the [Action Network API Authentication instructions](https://actionnetwork.org/docs/v2/#auth){:target=_blank .external-link} for more information. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Request API access |
|
|
|
|
|
Each user account and group on the Action Network has a separate API key to access that user or group's data. |
|
|
|
|
|
You must explicitly request API access from Action Network, which you can do in one of two ways: |
|
|
|
|
|
1. If you're already a paying customer, [contact them](https://actionnetwork.org/contact) to request partner access. Partner access includes API key access. |
|
|
2. If you're a developer, [request a developer account](https://actionnetwork.org/developers){:target=_blank .external-link}. Once your account request is granted, you'll have API key access. |
