Before you start

Huntbase signs in to Fastly with Fastly API Token. Create the credential in Fastly first, then keep it to hand for the Connect step.

1. In the Fastly control panel, go to Account › API tokens › Personal tokens and click Create token. Enter your password when prompted.
2. Enter a descriptive name and choose the token type and role.
3. Under scope, select Read-only access (global:read).
4. Under service access, limit the token to the service you want to query, and set an expiration.
5. Click Create Token and copy the token immediately. It is never shown again.

Permissions:

• global:read (read-only access to account information, configuration and stats)

Watch out for

• Each connection covers a single Fastly service, so the token must have access to the service in Service ID.

For the vendor's own instructions, see Fastly API token documentation.

tip

Use a dedicated, read-only credential for Huntbase where the product allows it. Huntbase only needs to read.

Connect Fastly

1. Go to Connections and click New connection, or click New connection on the Fastly product page.
2. On Product, pick Fastly and choose the Owner.
3. On Details, give the connection a Name and, optionally, a Description.
4. On Connect, fill in the settings and credentials described below.
5. On Verify, review the summary and click Create & check.

For everything else on the setup page — saving a draft, I'll do this later, and what each check result means — see Connections.
