Generate your API key
To use the Python or JavaScript client with TerminusDB, an API key is required. The API key is obtained in the DFRNT TerminusDB cloud by using the steps below.
1. Log in
Log in to the modeller user interface dfrnt.com
2. Select a Team
The teams are listed in the settings section after logging in (and selecting a plan if you have not already done so). This will be the team in which the API key will be generated.
3. Select your profile
Select your API Tokens in the menu.
4. Generate a Personal Access Token
Enter a description in Add a Token Description then click Generate New Token. Copy the token generated.
5. Copy the required code snippet
Select the Python or JavaScript tab then copy the code snippet.
Set up your environment
Assign your token to the environment variable TERMINUSDB_ACCESS_TOKEN in your code snippet. The example below is in bash.
Code: API key environment configuration
export TERMINUSDB_ACCESS_TOKEN="my API key here"
You are now ready to start with a client -
