Overview

Your API key allows you to access MNTN reporting data outside the MNTN user interface. This is supported through a User Application Protocol that delivers the reporting data in several formats.

The process is as follows:

  1. Copy and send your API request to the developer responsible for accessing the MNTN API.

  2. This will allow you to make requests to our R2DS data service.

  3. In turn, you can embed reporting data into your own applications.

Access It

  1. Navigate to My Account and select the API tab.

  2. Click Copy, and you'll see that you've copied the key.

Use It

Once copied, you can use your browser or a terminal app with any MNTN API request. Just make sure to include your API Key as part of your HTTP request.
