Prerequisites​

Before creating an ArtsVision credential in Nexla, you need to obtain your client-specific API key from your ArtsVision account. This credential authenticates Nexla with the ArtsVision API and should be kept secure.

Obtain an ArtsVision API Key​

  1. Contact your ArtsVision account representative or access your ArtsVision account settings to request API access.

  2. Navigate to your account settings or developer settings to access API configuration options.

  3. Locate the API section in your account settings. This section contains your client-specific API credentials and access tokens.

  4. Generate or copy your API Key. The API key is a client-specific secret token that authenticates API requests and provides access to your ArtsVision account data. The API key is sent in the apikey header for all API requests.

    Your API key provides full access to your ArtsVision account data through the API. Keep your API key secure and do not share it publicly or commit it to version control systems. If you suspect your API key has been compromised, contact your ArtsVision account representative to regenerate it. For additional information about ArtsVision API access, see the ArtsVision website.

Credential Name & Description​

  1. Enter a name for the credential in the Credential Name field and a short, meaningful description in the Credential Description field.

    Resource descriptions are recommended but are not required. They should be used provide information about the resource purpose, data freshness, etc. that can help the owner and other users efficiently understand and utilize the resource.

API Key Configuration​

  1. Enter your ArtsVision API key in the Api Key field. This key authenticates Nexla with the ArtsVision API and should match the client-specific API key obtained from your ArtsVision account. The API key is sent in the apikey header for all API requests.

    The API key provides full access to your ArtsVision account data through the API. Keep your API key secure and do not share it publicly or commit it to version control systems. ArtsVision uses the API key in the apikey header for authentication, which allows Nexla to make authenticated requests to your account.

Save the Credential​

  1. Once all of the relevant steps in the above sections have been completed, click the Save button at the bottom of the overlay to save the configured credential.

  2. The newly added credential will now appear in a tile on the Authenticate screen during data source/destination creation and can be selected for use with a new data source or destination.
