Overview

To authenticate with Auvik, you need:
  1. Username – Your Auvik account username (usually your email address).
  2. API Key – Your Auvik API key (separate from your password).
  3. Region – Your Auvik region (e.g., us1, us2, eu1). This determines your API base URL like https://auvikapi.<region>.my.auvik.com.
This guide walks you through generating an API key and finding your region in Auvik.

Prerequisites:

  • Optional: create a new, separate Auvik account within your organization to hold your API Key so that this key is not tied to any one individual. Auvik documentation refers to this as setting up a “service account.”
  • Access to your Auvik account with API permissions.

Step 1: Generate an API Key

  1. Log in to your Auvik dashboard.
  2. Scroll to the bottom of the left-hand nav. Look for your account’s name and click to view and edit your profile.
  1. Under the API Key section, click Generate.
  1. Copy and securely store your API Key – this is separate from your password and will be used for API authentication.
  1. Your Username is the email address associated with your Auvik account.
See: Auvik API Documentation

Step 2: Determine your region

Your region is visible in your browser’s address bar when you’re logged into the Auvik web UI:
  • If your URL is https://yourcompany.us1.my.auvik.com/... → Your region is us1
  • If your URL is https://yourcompany.us2.my.auvik.com/... → Your region is us2
  • If your URL is https://yourcompany.eu1.my.auvik.com/... → Your region is eu1
Common regions:
  • us1https://auvikapi.us1.my.auvik.com
  • us2https://auvikapi.us2.my.auvik.com
  • eu1https://auvikapi.eu1.my.auvik.com

Step 3: Enter your details in the Connect UI

Once you have your Username, API Key, and Region:
  1. Open the form where you connect to Auvik.
  2. Enter your Username (email address).
  3. Enter your API Key.
  4. Enter your Region (e.g., us2).
  5. Click Connect.
You are now connected to Auvik.
