  • Log on to the Merchant Interface at https://secure.authorize.net
  • Select Settings under Account in the main menu on left
  • Click API Login ID and Transaction Key in the Security Settings section
  • Enter your secret answer to the secret question you configured when you activated your user account

  • Click Submit
  • The Transaction Key for your account is displayed on a confirmation page.

  • Log on to the Merchant Interface at https://secure.authorize.net
  • Select Settings under Account in the main menu on left
  • Click the Transaction Details API link in the Security Settings section. The Transaction Details API screen opens.
