Hello, I’d like to connect GF to my [weweb.io](http://weweb.io) application so that I can use the data collected in my GF forms. I’ve generated a key but access to the link type: [mywebsite.com - This website is for sale! - mywebsite Resources and Information.](https://www.mywebsite.com/wp-json/gf/v2/forms/42/entries) can only be accessed if you’re connected to the back office of my wordpress site. On the Weweb support forum, they tell me: "You need to generate an access token in Wordpress and pass it with your REST request to authorize yourself. " Which I can’t manage to do. I searched the pages: [REST API v2 Authentication - Gravity Forms Documentation](https://docs.gravityforms.com/rest-api-v2-authentication/) and [Gravity Forms REST API Settings - Gravity Forms Documentation](https://docs.gravityforms.com/gravity-forms-rest-api-settings/) but couldn’t find how to do it. Is it possible to make this type of link accessible without having to log in? If so, how? If not, how can I generate authentication for an external application? Thank you in advance. ---

Hello @Anthony-MD, Thanks for your question. You have mentioned this: > [@Anthony-MD](#): > > I’ve generated a key Does this mean you have already created a Consumer Key and Secret Consumer Key from your GF Forms → Settings → REST API page? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/gravityforms1/original/3X/2/c/2cfe5ff4295c941bf81fecda27ebc5315c91be3b.png) If yes, you will have something like this ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/gravityforms1/original/3X/4/1/419759da76c777462f421028647f98577e8173da.png) If no, you can create your keys by following the steps here: > **[Gravity Forms REST API Settings](https://docs.gravityforms.com/gravity-forms-rest-api-settings/)** > > The REST API settings page allows you to set up the Gravity Forms REST API, which can be used to integrate Gravity Forms with other apps. Once you have those Keys, now go for the Basic Authentication method and you will get the guide here: > **[REST API v2 Authentication](https://docs.gravityforms.com/rest-api-v2-authentication/#h-basic-authentication)** > > The Gravity Forms REST API v2 supports authenticating requests using Basic Authentication and OAuth 1.0a Authentication. Credentials can be generated by Gravity Forms or WordPress. Let us know how it works. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Regards, ---
