Generating an API connection to integrate with a supported third-party product is easy!  Follow these steps:

1. Login to your Aeries website as an admin

2. Navigate to Security -> API Security

3. Select the “Add New Record” button

4. Enter the product name and any comment you’d like.

5. Click Insert to save the Certificate

6. Grant the applicable API Permissions;

7. Select the checkbox next to “Display Certificate Details”

8. You'll need the certificate, along with your Aeries base URL* to configure the initial vendor connection. 

*The "base URL" is the entire web address of your Aeries system leading up to the part that says "/Login.aspx"

In this example, the highlighted text is the "base URL." Your own base URL will be different.

For hosted customers, your base URL will be https://yourdistrictname.aeries.net/admin

(replace "yourdistrictname" with your actual assigned URL address)
