How to create an Account API Key for the API

The information in this document will help you establish an API account for testing. Please note that this is a work in progress, and content will change as we continue to enhance our new API and accompanying documentation.

Step 1 - Sign up for a new Mimeo Print account

The first step is to create a Mimeo Print account in one or more regions. If you already have an existing Mimeo Print account, you can skip this step.

1. Visit the Mimeo Print website and sign up for an account in sandbox first. Once you are ready for production deployment, do the same thing in production. (You can freely test in sandbox, and we will not produce any physical orders nor charge you for them.)

NOTE: In general, we recommend setting up dedicated account for your API implementation, and sharing all print and document content to it.

1. Contact your Mimeo Account Representative to setup your API Accounts.

2. Please provide a valid contact account address for your new API account

3. Manually upload a few print files, and create documents for testing.

Step 2 - Sign up for an API account

Once the account exists, you can use it to generate your API key. If you ever forget your key, you can simply follow this process to retrieve it.

Navigate to visit the appropriate Connect site and generate a region-based API key. Log into the page using the Mimeo basic authentication details you created in step 1.

Once you create your new API Key, you can now start using our Mimeo Print Api!
