Creating an API User

As a best practice, you should create an API User for use solely between Lookout and MaaS360. This ensures that communication between Lookout MES and MaaS360 is restricted to a single set of credentials.

  1. Log in to your MaaS360 Admin Portal.
  2. In the top bar, navigate to SETUP > Administrators and click Add Administrator:


  3. Fill out the email address and username information and click Next.
    The username may be the same as the corporate email address, or it may be a unique identifier.
  4. Grant the Administrator and Administrator - Level 2 roles and click Next:


  5. Click Save.
    If you are prompted to enter your password, do so.
  6. Log in to the MaaS360 Admin portal as the new API User to verify that you have access.
