Obtain Your Access Key

Continuous Testing Cloud lets you remote testing if you specify your username and password in the Desired Capabilities. However, best practice is not to use your username and password in your code. Instead, use your Access Key.

To obtain your access key:

1. On the top right of the screen, click your user avatar → Get Access Key. 
   
2. In the Access Key dialog, click the copy to clipboard button.
   

Now you can use it in your code. To do so, add it to the Desired Capabilities

• On-premises Continuous Testing Cloud environment - Your designated URL. For example: https://company.com/wd/hub
