The IXOPAY platform provides additional services as the [Provisioning API](https://documentation.ixopay.com/api/provisioning/provisioning-api) and the [BI Data Source](https://documentation.ixopay.com/docs/reference/features/bi-data-source) to be accessed via API. Any request to both APIs must be authenticated via BASIC Authentication credentials.

The username is the API Key, the password is the API Key's password. In this section you can create and edit API Keys for the Tenant / Sub-Tenant as follows:

> **Tip**
>
> Separate multiple IP addresses with a comma (and NO whitespace, e.g. `198.51.100.101,203.0.113.103`). You can also use CIDR notation for the IP addresses (e.g. `198.51.100.0/28` for all IP addresses from `198.51.100.0` to `198.51.100.15`)

> **Warning**
>
> Make sure to securely store the generated password, this is the only time it is shown to you. After that you can only reset it.
