Passwords for API vs. Administration

Hi,

I am working with a third party developer that has done all the API-level integration into CG. They have been working with a test account so far. As we are approaching launch, I want to setup a real account, link to my bank account, and get some REAL cheddar flowing!

My question is this, can I setup a userid and/or password combination to give to the developers, that they can build into my site's code, for accessing the service, but setup a different userid and password for administration, billing, configuring my account, etc? It's not that I don't trust the third party developer, they are fantastic! It's just that I don't trust ANYONE to manage my cheddar!

So, sorry if that's a newbie question, but I need a little guidance here.

Thanks,
Aaron Gani

    Hi Aaron -- You can actually use the Secret Key instead of a password for API authentication. You can find that here: https://cheddargetter.com/admin/configuration/settings
