Where do I find the API key for the PlayIt Live Control API?

The PlayIt Live Control API uses API keys for authentication, which you can create and manage through the Remote Management web interface.

To create an API key, first ensure the Remote Access Server is running by going to File > Enable remote connections in PlayIt Live and clicking Start Server. Then click the server URL link (e.g. https://localhost:25433) to open the web interface in your browser. Navigate to Remote Management, log in if necessary, then go to Settings & Tools and click API Keys. Enter a descriptive name for your API key and click Create. Make a note of the generated API key immediately, as it cannot be retrieved later.

The PlayIt Live Control API requires the Remote Management module, which is a premium module available for purchase at https://www.playitsoftware.com/Account/Subscription/RemoteManagement. For complete API documentation, visit https://www.playitsoftware.com/PlayItLiveAPIDocs.
