Thanks.io

Connection

When you’re setting up your first workflow with thanks.io, you’ll need to add your private API key so that thanks.io is a connected app within MESA.

You can create your private API key by clicking Settings (gear icon) > API Access on the thanks.io Dashboard. This link will also take you to where you will find the API key: dashboard.thanks.io/profile/billing

Click on the plus icon on the right hand side, under Personal Access Tokens.

Enter your preferred name of the API Key and click on Create.

Afterwards, you will be shown your first Personal Access Token. This will be the only time you will be shown the token so make sure to copy everything in the text box. Paste that into your MESA workflow’s thanks.io Connection section. Click on Add Connection and then you are all set!
