Connecting to Board

The board API uses a API key and Token-based authentication.

Using Token Authentication

Your board API Key and API Token are required to create a connection to board. API Key and API Token can be generated in the board API settings page. Once you have obtained those properties, set them in the ProfileSettings connection property.

Example Connection string

Profile=C:\profiles\board.apip;ProfileSettings='APIKey=my_api_key;APIToken=my_api_token;'
