# JumpCloud - How do I link my account?

## Overview

To authenticate with JumpCloud, you need:

1. **API Key** - A key that grants Nango permission to interact with JumpCloud's API resources and services.

This guide will walk you through obtaining your **API Key** within JumpCloud.

### Prerequisites:

* You must have a valid JumpCloud Administrator account
* Your account must have appropriate permissions to generate API keys

### Instructions:

#### Step 1: Generate Your JumpCloud API Key

1. Log in to the [JumpCloud Admin Portal](https://console.jumpcloud.com/)
2. In the top-right corner, click on your account initials
3. Select **My API Key** from the dropdown menu

4. Click **Generate New API Key** to create a new API key

**Important Security Notes:**

* Generating a new API key will revoke access to the current API key
* This will render all existing integrations using the previous API key inaccessible
* Only administrators with appropriate roles can access the API
* Keep your API key secure and do not share it, as it grants full access to your JumpCloud instance

#### Step 2: Enter credentials in the Connect UI

Once you have your **API Key**:

1. Open the form where you need to authenticate with JumpCloud
2. Enter your **API Key** in the respective field
3. Submit the form, and you should be successfully authenticated

You are now connected to JumpCloud and can access both v1 and v2 API endpoints.
