Connecting to Tickspot
Tickspot uses token authentication to control access to the API.
Using Token Authentication
In order to authenticate to Tickspot, you'll need to set the APIKey to your API Token. In addition to your token, the SubscriptionId is required with every request (except for Roles table). You can obtain your API Token and SubscriptionId by querying the Roles table. To query the Roles table, set User and Password to your login email address and password in the conn string. Set both the APIKey and SubscriptionId in the ProfileSettings property to connect.

Profile=C:\profiles\Tickspot.apip;User=your_email_address;Password=your_password';
Example connection string for all other tables
