This will open a modal where you can select the type of application.

Step 1. Create app

2. Authentication method

App Credentials

Create a new key

To generate your client_id and client_secret click the "Create new key" button. This action will trigger a download of a text file with your API keys. Make sure to store the keys in a place where they can be retrieved at a later time.

Consent URL

Generate a new URL

Once your API application has been setup, you will need to request consent from the advertiser or publisher to get access to their assets. You can generate as many URLs as you want; each URL can only be used once.

-Click Generate new URL. This will generate a fresh new consent URL every time this step is done

-Click the "Copy" icon to the right of the consent URL field

-Share this URL with a user access to the advertiser or publisher account. Users with admin, business manager and technical managers will have access to grant consent to API applications in retail media.
