After installing the Data Connector, it appears in the Management Tool’s Configuration → Applications tab as a registered application. This is where you confirm registration succeeded, see version information, and (when needed) deactivate the integration.
NOT AVAILABLE IN SAAS. This procedure applies to on-premises deployments only.
Managing the Data Connector requires the administrative Tenant Management and System Configuration permission.

​
Open the Applications tab

1

Open Configuration

Sign in to the Management Tool. Click the Configuration (gear) icon at the top.
2

Open the Applications tab

Select the Applications tab. A new record for the Data Connector is displayed after a successful installation — confirming the Data Connector has registered with the Application Server.

The Applications tab showing the registered Data Connector — a successful install appears here automatically.

​
Deactivate the Data Connector

To remove the Data Connector’s integration with the Application Server — for example, when migrating to a different host or decommissioning the integration:
1

Click Remove

On the Applications tab, click the Remove icon on the right of the Data Connector row.
2

Confirm

Confirm the removal in the prompt that appears.
Removing the Data Connector means it must be reinstalled to reactivate it. The application can’t be re-registered without going through the full installation procedure again. Don’t remove unless you’re decommissioning or migrating.
After removal, API calls to the Data Connector return HTTP 403 Forbidden — the application is no longer registered on the Application Server. See Status codes for the full error mapping.

​
Get an API key

Each Management Tool user has their own API key. The key inherits the user’s administrative permissions, Client permissions, and User-to-User access — so API consumers see the same data scope the user would see in the Management Tool.
1

Open the user menu

In the Management Tool, click the button in the top right where your user name is displayed.
2

Open Manage Account

The Manage Account page opens. Find the Active API Key field.
3

Copy the key

Click the Copy icon next to the Active API Key to copy it to your clipboard. Paste it into your API consumer (Power BI, Postman, your script, etc.) as the ApiKey header.
Treat the API key like a password. Anyone with this key can read every piece of monitoring data the user has access to. Don’t commit it to version control, don’t paste it into chat logs, and rotate it if you suspect exposure.
For the full authentication conventions and the header format, see API reference → Authentication.
