Set up an Ecommerce API token

North America—United States and Canada

You can create public and private keys or Ecommerce API tokens in either the production or sandbox environment. API tokens secure the communication between an app integration and your merchant account. You can use an API token to integrate online payments with your ecommerce website. You can create only one Ecommerce API token per merchant account, but you can use the same token for multiple solutions.

To create public and private keys (API tokens):

  1. Log in to your Global Developer Dashboard.
  2. From the Developer Account drop-down list, select a merchant name under Businesses. The Merchant Dashboard for the selected merchant appears.
  3. From the left navigation menu, click Account & Setup. The Account & Setup page appears.
  4. In the Ecommerce section, click Ecommerce API Tokens.
