How do I create a write key for a data source?

Objective

This article helps you add a write key to a Conversation Memory data source. A write key is what your website or app uses to send activity to that source, so a second key is useful for separating environments such as production and staging.

 

Product

Conversation Memory

 

Environment

Twilio Console

 

Procedure

  1. In the Twilio Console, select Data in the left sidebar.
  2. Select Conversation Memory, then Data sources.
  3. Select the source you want to add a key to, then open its Settings page.
  4. Select Edit to open the Edit source settings panel, which lists the source's existing write keys.
  5. Select + Create write key.
  6. Enter a name for the key in the Write key name field.
  7. Select Save. A Write key created confirmation appears and the new key is listed with the others.

 

Additional Information

  • Save stays unavailable until you enter a name, so a key cannot be created without one.
  • To back out, select Cancel. Nothing is created and the + Create write key button returns.
  • The source's Settings page shows how many write keys the source has, for example 1 write key.
