# bitdefender - How do I link my account?

# Overview

To authenticate with bitdefender, you need two key pieces of information:

1. **API Key** - A unique identifier for your application on bitdefender.
2. **Access Url** - API URL provided by bitdefender

This guide will walk you through finding or creating those credentials within bitdefender.

### Prerequisites:

* You must set up an administrator account with bitdefender with the following rights: **Manage Networks**, **Manage Users**, **Manage Company**, and **View and analyze data**.

#### Step 1: Finding Your API Key

1. Log into `https://gravityzone.bitdefender.com/` with your bitdefender administrator account and navigate and select **My Account**

2. To find the **Access Url**, click your username in the upper-right corner of the console and choose **My Account**. Go to the **Control Center API section**.
