Overview

The API User menu is used to manage users or credentials that access OneDB services through API calls.

API users are typically used by applications, services, or integration components that need to perform operations such as tokenization, detokenization, masking, or other data protection functions.

Common Activities

Administrators can use this menu to:

• Create an API user
• Generate API credentials
• Review API user status

Typical API User Information

An API user record may include:

• API username
• API password
• Created date
• Last updated date

Recommended Practice

API users should be created per application or service. Avoid using a single shared API user for multiple unrelated applications.
