Get started

Overview​

This guide shows to get started as a developer: create an account, create an app to get your API key and app ID, then request access to services you want to use.

Steps​

Step 1. Sign up for a Sky Mavis Account​

Register for a Sky Mavis Account to access our Developer Console:

  1. Go to the Developer Console.
  2. Create an account using an email and password or social login.

Your Sky Mavis Account is ready to use.

Step 2. Create an app in Developer Console​

Next, create an app in the Developer Console to get your API key and app ID:

  1. Log in to the Developer Console.
  2. Click Create application.
  3. Enter your app's name, then click Create.
  4. Select the app you created, then click Edit, and then on the Information tab, fill in the Website URL, Project Type, and App Logo fields.
  5. Click Save.

You can now view your API key and app ID by selecting the app and clicking the Information tab.

Regenerate API key​

To regenerate the API key:

  1. Click Back to applications, then click More options (three dots) next to your app.
  2. Select Regenerate API key.

Note: If you regenerate your API key, update it in your app code or environment variables to avoid disruptions.

Step 3. Configure services​

Some services require explicit permissions. To request access:

  1. In the Developer Console, select your app, then select the App Permission tab.

  2. Locate the service you want to use, then click Request Access.

  3. Describe your potential use case with this service and submit the request.

Once the request is approved, the service's status changes to "Active."

You can now integrate this service into your app. Refer to the service's documentation in the sidebar for configuration steps.
