Singular Integration - Limited Access API Keys

Written by Kevin Jabbour

Introduction to API Keys

API keys are essential for allowing external applications or users to securely interact with your Singular MMP data. A limited access API key ensures that a user can only access specific data points or functionalities, enhancing security and data governance.

Process

Step 1: Create a user

  1. Log in to your Singular MMP dashboard

  2. Use this guide to set up a new user, ensure to choose restricted user

  3. Choose an email address for the restricted user

    1. Use a +kohort alias on your own domain - for example, [email protected]. Most providers route these to the base inbox automatically, so no new account is needed.

    2. If your email provider doesn't support +aliases, create a dedicated address like [email protected] instead.

Step 2: Configure Access

  • When setting up, the user creation wizard will appear when you choose to add a restricted user. It will give you a screen that looks like the below
