Getting started
How to get partner access, sign in, register your integration, and obtain API keys — before your first API call.
Hello Tractor does not offer self-service account signup. New organizations start with Collaborate; approved users sign in to the partner dashboard.
Overview
The integration journey has two paths depending on where you are:
| You are… | Start here |
|---|---|
| A new organization exploring ST2 | New organizations |
| Approved and ready to connect systems | Approved users |
After you have an API key, continue with the Quickstart and Authentication guides.
New organizations
Partner access is approval-based. There is no public signup form on this hub.
- Reach out — Email the integration team with your organization, goals, and which capabilities you need (financial services, payments, marketplace, or a combination).
- Align on scope — We confirm environments, filters, and API permissions together. See Collaborate for program context and API access permissions.
- Receive access — When approved, your team receives sign-in instructions (Google OAuth where enabled, or credentials issued by Hello Tractor).
Approved users
Once your organization has access, connect systems through the partner dashboard.
1. Sign in
Sign in with the account Hello Tractor provisioned. If Google sign-in is enabled for your environment, you can use Continue with Google on the login page.
2. Complete onboarding
First-time users are guided through the onboarding wizard:
- Choose your integration track (financial services, Marketplace, or both)
- Register a connected system — name and describe the integration that will call Hello Tractor APIs
- Generate an API key — scoped to the permissions agreed during collaboration
You can return to the partner dashboard anytime to add systems, rotate keys, or manage webhooks.
3. Make your first API call
Copy your API key and follow the Quickstart for your API family. Keys are sent as Authorization: Bearer on every request — see Authentication for details.
