Create and manage API users

Overview

This article explains how users with the Administrator role in Maestro can create and delete API users.

Before you start

Before creating an API user, make sure you: 

  • Have administrator permissions for your Maestro company. 
  • Are prepared to securely store the client ID and client secret displayed during creation, as the secret might not be shown again.

Create API user

To create an API user, follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to Maestro.
  2. Go to Admin > API Users.
  3. Select Create API User.
  4. Provide a clear name.
  5. Click Create.
  6. Copy the generated client ID and client secret, and store them securely. For security reasons, the secret is displayed only once.

Treat credentials as secrets. Never paste them in unsecured channels, commit them to repositories, or share them outside your organization.

 

Delete API user

  1. Open the API Users list and select the user.
  2. Select Delete and confirm. 

This action immediately revokes access for any integrations using that user's credentials.

Next steps

Authenticate with OAuth using your client ID and client secret. For more information, see Get started with Maestro API authentication.

New API users are provisioned on Auth0 Enterprise and must use OAuth client credentials. Existing legacy users (Auth0 Community) will be migrated. A deprecation timeline will be communicated once migration is complete.
