Connecting a ZBD Dev Dashboard Project to ZBD Shield is required to route transactions for that Project through your ZBD Shield instance. This will be done by inputting the applicable Project’s API key from the ZBD Dev Dashboard into ZBD Shield.

In ZBD Dev Dashboard

  1. In a separate browser tab, log in to your ZBD Dev Dashboard account.

  2. Navigate to the applicable Project.

  3. Navigate to the API tab.

  4. Copy your ZBD Project API key.

Once you have your API key, you’re ready to insert it into ZBD Shield instance.

Now, we need to put that API key into ZBD Shield, so the two are linked and ZBD Shield can properly protect your Project’s transactions.

  1. Login to your ZBD Shield instance.

  2. Navigate to Settings.

  3. Navitate to API Key.

  4. Paste your ZBD Project API key and press the checkmark button to save the entry.
