To start your account integration with your platform, you will need to access your Gameball API keys, secret Key, as well as enable some security measures if needed, such as your high Security Mode, or apply key rotation. The following will show you where to find those keys and how to apply strong security measures.

You can access your Account Integration settings section in Gameball Admin Dashboard through Settings > Admin Settings > Account Integration

Integration Keys

Live API Key

This is your account key, which will be used in the integration between your platform and Gameball.

โ—๏ธโ—๏ธ Disclaimer!

You will have Test API Key and Live API Key, use the test one during your integration and the live one after going live. Read more about Test/Live Data API Keys

Test API Key

This is your account key, which will be used for test environments.

Secret Key

This is your account points transactions key, it will be used with all points transactions APIs.

High Security Mode for API Authentication

When enabled, this mode ensures that all API requests are verified and secure, preventing unauthorized access and data exposure. This feature is disabled by default and can be easily activated in the Integration settings within the Admin panel. Once enabled, any integration that previously required only an API key will now also require a Secret Key, ensuring that even if the API key is exposed, it cannot be misused.

API & Secret Key Rotation

You can now secure your accounts by rotating keys without affecting your existing platform connections, helping them comply with security best practices (e.g., periodic credential rotation) and mitigate potential key exposure risks.

Key Features:

  • Individual Key Rotation: API keys and Secret Key can each be rotated separately with dedicated actions.

  • Immediate Replacement: Upon rotation, a new key is generated instantly, and the old key is immediately disabled.

  • Automated Updates for Shopify & Salla:

    • Rotated keys are automatically updated in connected Shopify and Salla stores.

    • On these platforms, you do not need to manually update your store configuration after key rotation.

  • Access Control:

    • Only Admins, Workspace Owners, and Workspace Admins can rotate keys.

    • If using custom roles, key rotation permission is configurable.
