Message Bird uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Message Bird account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Message Bird APIs in both code and no-code steps.
Once you sign in, the API key information are available in the Developer Settings, which is shown as Manage API Keys in the middle right of the Dashboard.
