Getting Started with the Nirvana Cloud API

This page will help you get started with Nirvana Cloud API.

In order to use the Cloud API, you must first create an access token key via https://nirvanalabs.io. This access key is bound to your account. On a team, each user on the team can have their own access tokens.

The Cloud API allows users create, read, update and delete cloud resources such as VPCs, security rules, virtual machines, metrics and billing.

Create an API Access Key

  1. Login to the Nirvana App and navigate to the "Applications & API" section.
  2. Click on "Create Access Token"
  3. Choose a role and expiration date
