Overview

Merchants can use the REST 2.0 API Credentials Report to generate API keys required for Nuvei REST API 2.0 transaction authentication. Merchants can generate multiple API keys for each Site and Entity ID pair, with the flexibility to decide which API key to use based on their needs.

The REST 2.0 API Credentials Report is available to a Control Panel user with the Developer only role or the Temp role (regardless of whether the user has admin permissions).

For more information about Nuvei REST API 2.0, see REST 2.0.

REST 2.0 API Credentials Report

The following information appears in the report:

• Parent Entity ID – When generating an API key for a Parent Entity ID, all Child Entities of this parent receive the same key. This makes it easier to manage keys for multiple entities under one parent organization.
• Entity ID – Unique identifier for a merchant account or business entity in the Nuvei system.
• Site Name – Name of the specific site or platform associated with the API key.
• API Key – Unique API key associated with a specific Entity ID and Site Name. Merchants can create and use several keys for different purposes, and decide which key to use for processing.

You can:

•   – Generate an API key for the corresponding Entity ID and Site Name pair.
• Copy an API key for processing – After generating multiple keys for an Entity ID and Site Name pair, you can copy the appropriate key to use for your processing requirements. Each key can be associated with a specific site or entity, allowing for flexibility and control over which key to use for transactions.
