Setup

Introduction

To successfully establish a connection and send requests to the Alteryx API, the Alteryx Scope activity must complete authentication to a Custom App using the supported authentication.

To give the Alteryx Scope activity the ability to authenticate and to enable the other activities to successfully send requests to the Alteryx API, you must complete the following steps:

1. Go to the Keys tab on your profile settings in Alteryx.
2. Obtain the Private Studio API (Key) and (Secret).
3. You may also need to obtain the API location if it is different from the default location of http://localhost/cloud/api/v1.
   
   

   

   
   

You're done!

Now that you have completed the setup, you can start adding the Alteryx activities to your project.
