Account setup and API keys

This guide walks you through creating your Terra account and obtaining the API keys necessary to start integrating with our services.

1

Create your Terra API account

  • Sign Up: Create an account at the Terra API Registration Page.

  • Onboarding: Follow the Terra the onboarding flow and fill in the required information (email, password, company details, etc.) when prompted.

2

Select plan

  • Setup: During onboarding you'll be prompted to select your plan and enter billing details. Select the plan that best fits your requirements.

  • Manage plan: Once signed up, you can manage view your current plan and billing details within the Terra Dashboard under Settings. Ensure your account and subscription are active to maintain uninterrupted API access.

3

Obtain API keys

  • Get keys from dashboard: Once your account is setup, go to the Terra Dashboard and click on API Keys in the Navbar. Here you can copy your Developer ID and API Keys.

  • Credentials per environment: Terra maintains separate credentials for testing, staging, and production environments. There is a user cap on testing and staging.

4

Start using Terra API!

  • Follow API Docs: You're now all set to use Terra API. We recommend that you start with the Health & Fitness API.

  • Keep secret: Never share your x-api-key publicly or embed it directly in client-side code (e.g., mobile apps, frontend JavaScript).

  • Backend Use: API keys requiring this level of access (like your main x-api-key) should typically be used only from your secure backend server.
