The registration of a database with Autotask requires a so-called “API user”. An API user is a special type of user, different from regular Autotask users. This topic describes the steps to register and/or find your API user:
- Navigate to the Autotask website.
- Log on:
- Provide the password:
- Go to the Admin menu.
- Go to Account Settings & Users.
- Go to Resources/Users (HR) group.
- Go to Resources/Users.
- Choose the New button > New API User.
- Add and/or edit the API user:
- Make sure “Locked” NOT checked.
- Make sure “Active” is checked.
Use the API user to log on to Autotask with Invantive SQL. The regular user name will not work.
