Revoking Your API Key
The API consumer might want to revoke an API key if, for example, the key is no longer needed or if an error is found in the API.
To request for revocation of an API key, the following prerequisites must be met:
API provider must have configured the predefined policy
API Key Revocation, which enables the
CentraSite Administrator, API Provider or designated approvers to approve or reject the "Renew API Key" requests.
A gateway instance (for example,
Mediator) should be up and running. For information on gateways, see
Run-Time Gateways.
To revoke your API key
1. In the My API Keys section, displays a list of your API keys in CentraSite.
2. Move the cursor over the API key you want to revoke. This causes a Delete (
) icon to appear, that you can use for revoking. 3. Click the icon to revoke the API key.
A confirmation message appears that the API key will be revoked.
Once the API key revocation is processed, CentraSite sends an email message to the API Consumer informing the request has been processed successfully.
