If you don't see an RSS Token in that box, then click on 'Enable RSS Feeds' so that it is checked Click the button 'Generate New' to get a new RSS token Click [Update] to save your changes Regards Sarah Wed, 02 Mar 2016 17:31:48 -05002016-03-02T17:31:48-05:00/Support/Forum/spirateam/issues-questions/1386.aspx#reply2526messageId=2540Chris Li (xinhai_li@msn.com) It works, Thank you very much for your help. "API Key (also known as the RSS Token)" It works, Thank you very much for your help. "API Key (also known as the RSS Token)" If you had put this "Also known" part into your documentation, hours of frustration could be saved, could you suggestion is to add this to your RESTful api documentation? to avoid confusing more new-users like me.
