Most vendors require both an API key, described as a special password used to communicate with the vendor for your specific account, and an API URL, which is the endpoint where the data is stored. Some vendors also require additional credentials such as Client IDs or Client Secrets, and in certain cases you may need to obtain credentials directly from the vendor rather than creating them in their portal. The guide notes that credentials may be needed from multiple places when data is located across different APIs or endpoints.
