Generate API key

[ScottG67]

Hello All,

      I want to start using the API to get some data from my Meraki environments. I found this support page: https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-latest/#!authorization/obtaining-your-meraki-api-key

That shows how to enable and generate the API key. I was able to enable the API key as the document above states and save the settings. When I go to my profile there is nothing to generate an API key. There is nothing like what is available in the article. I went back to the settings to confirm that the box was still selected to enable API access and it was. So I am not at a loss here on how to obtain the key. Is this something that support needs to enable like some of the other Meraki features? 

Thanks,

Scott

Is your account:

1. An Admin account
2. Logging in with an email and password and not SAML

I was wondering if that was the case. I will log in with an admin account and not SAML and give it a try. Thanks for the info.

I can confirm that SAML accounts are not able to have an API key.
