Retrieving iTwin IoT Asset API Key

An API key from the iTwin IoT asset will be required in order to establish the data transfer connection between Move and iTwin IoT. This section will guide the user in retrieving an API key from iTwin IoT.

1. Navigate to the Asset that data will be pushed to in iTwin IoT. From any page, click on the "Configure" icon in the lower left side of the page.

2. The user will be directed to the "Asset Configuration" page. The API key will be available within a tile on this page. The API key can either be highlighted and copied, or the "Copy to Clipboard" button will save it for pasting in future steps.
