## Using API key

To configure this credential, you'll need:

- An **API Secret**: Generated with the API key.
- Your ERPNext **Environment**:
  - For **Cloud-hosted**:
    - Your ERPNext **Subdomain**: Refer to the [FAQs](/guides/automated-workflows#how-to-find-the-subdomain-of-an-erpnext-cloud-hosted-account)
    - Your **Domain**: Choose between `erpnext.com` and `frappe.cloud`.
  - For **Self-hosted**:
    - The fully qualified **Domain** where you host ERPNext
- Choose whether to **Ignore SSL Issues**: When selected, Mosaic Workflows will connect even if SSL certificate validation is unavailable.


If you are an ERPNext System Manager, you can also generate API keys and secrets for other users. Refer to the [ERPNext Adding Users documentation](https://docs.erpnext.com/docs/user/manual/en/adding-users) for more information.

## How to find the subdomain of an ERPNext cloud-hosted account

You can find your ERPNext subdomain by reviewing the address bar of your browser. The string between `https://` and either `.erpnext.com` or `frappe.cloud` is your subdomain.

For example, if the URL in the address bar is `https://transmit.erpnext.com`, the subdomain is `transmit`.
