Connect with an API token

  1. In Insightly:

    1. Sign in to Insightly as the user Safeguard will act as (API calls have the same permissions as that user has in the web app).
    2. Open User Settings and find your API Key in the API section.
    3. Copy the key and paste it into Safeguard's API key field.

    Where to find the other values:

    • Pod (optional): User Settings › API section shows the API URL right under your API Key; the pod is the part after api. (for example na1 in https://api.na1.insightly.com/v3.1/).

    Insightly has one API key per user with no scope options; permissions match the user's permissions in the web app.

    Source: api.insightly.com, checked 2026-10-07.

    The permissions Safeguard needs. Insightly shows the full user list only to administrators, so this credential must belong to one. Safeguard only reads with it.

  2. On Compliance › Connectors, open Insightly, click Connect, choose API token and fill in:

    FieldWhat to enter
    API keyRequired. Stored encrypted and never shown again.
    Pod (optional)Leave blank to use na1.
  3. Click Connect with token.
