Credentials
To gain access and integrate with our products and services, you need to create access credentials.
With the credentials (API Keys) obtained through our Partner's portal, you can access all of our APIs, as well as ME Data Connect.
In the next section, we will detail how you can invite users so they can create their own access credentials in the Partner's portal. On the invitation page, there are several profiles, including the developer profile.
The purpose of this profile is to give developers the autonomy to access the Partner's portal to manage API Keys and Webhooks. With the generated keys, developers can access our APIs, such as the ME Data Connect API.
📘 Note
The developer profile can only access the Partner's portal and APIs. This profile does not have access to any E-procurement functionalities of ME.
If you already have access to the Partner's portal, meaning you have received the invitation and accessed it before, go straight to the Add Credentials section.
