Create an API Key
This process creates a new key and assigns it to manually configured acl group ids that you have access to (see api/Read/Groups). Your primary access group that allows key creation cannot be allocated to new access keys. Only the GroupId and Display_Name key are required and the others are optional. Secret Hmac and Today Code Required. No Caching.
