1. Introduction
Once you sign in, you'll land on your dashboard. Over the next few steps, you'll generate a new API key with full access permissions and copy it for use. To get started, look at the left sidebar.
2. Access API Keys Section
In the left sidebar, click "API Keys." This opens the API key management section in Meeting BaaS, where you'll create and handle all your keys.
3. Initiate New API Key Creation
Because this is your first key, you'll see a "No API keys yet" message. Click "Create API key" to start generating a new one.
4. Open Permission Settings
A dialog pops up. First, give your key a name in the Name field, like "Production," so it's easy to recognize later. Then click the "Permission" dropdown to choose the access level for this key.
5. Set Full Access Permission
From the dropdown, click "Full access." This grants the key complete permissions across the platform, so it can do everything the API allows.
6. Save API Key Configuration
With your name and permission set, click "Save." This stores the new key with the permissions you chose and generates it.
7. Copy API Key To Clipboard
Here's the most important part. Meeting BaaS shows you the key only once, so don't close this yet. Click the "Copy to clipboard" icon to grab the key, then paste it somewhere safe right away, like a password manager or your project's environment variables.
8. Close API Key Dialog
Once your key is safely copied and stored, click "Close" to exit the dialog and return to the main API Keys page. Your new key now shows up in the list.
And that's it. You've created a new API key with full access permissions in Meeting BaaS and copied it for use. You can now plug this key into your applications to enable authorized access. Thanks for watching, and I'll catch you in the next video.
