Hello, I asked the service desk the process for creating an API key for a client. I explained that I know HOW to do it but, not be a partner (yet) I would not have the correct access and therefore wanted to know the process to follow for creating a key. 3 emails later and all they sent me as a link to post a discussion thread…

Anyway, if anyone can tell me how you would go about creating an API for a client when you do not have access, that would be great.
