# Connect VectorVMS with API Key and Secret – StackOne Hub

> Link a VectorVMS account in the StackOne Hub using API Key and Secret. End-user guide to authorize the integration and start using VectorVMS actions.

> [!WARNING]
>
> Each VectorVMS API environment (UAT and Production) has its own API Key and Secret. Use your Production credentials.

## Requesting API access

VectorVMS (Pixid VMS Pro) does not offer self-service API keys. Your API Key and API Secret identify your vendor organization and application to the API.

**1. Request API access**

Contact your VectorVMS (Pixid VMS Pro) account team and ask for API access for your vendor organization in the Production environment.

**2. Save your API Key and Secret**

VectorVMS creates your API Key and Secret when it first sets up your access, and creates new ones each time it grants additional API access. Store both values securely for use later.

## Entering your credentials

Your API Key and API Secret together authenticate every request StackOne makes to VectorVMS.

**1. Paste the API Key**

Paste the API Key from VectorVMS into the **API Key** field in StackOne Hub.

**2. Paste the API Secret**

Paste the API Secret from VectorVMS into the **API Secret** field in StackOne Hub.

<ul>
  <li>StackOne never sends the API Secret to VectorVMS. It only uses it to sign each request.</li>
</ul>

## Linking the Account from the Hub

**1. Navigate to the Hub**

Use one of the three [Linking Account Methods](https://docs.stackone.com/connect/managing-connectors/linking-accounts.md) to access the Hub.

**2. Fill out the fields**

Fill out the following fields using details from your provider:

<ul>
  <li>**API Key**</li>
  <li>**API Secret**</li>
</ul>

**3. Connect**

<ul>
  <li>Click **Connect**</li>
  <li>If applicable, the provider will redirect you to a sign-in or authorization page. Complete the provider's authorization flow.</li>
  <li>Once authorization is successful, you will see a confirmation popup</li>
</ul>

If the account linking is successful, you will see the newly linked account on your [Accounts](https://app.stackone.com/accounts) page.
