Where is the Tumblr API Key?

Question

Their documentation is not clear at all

There is nothing at all anywhere on the site labeled as the "API Key" but there is

• consumer_key:
• consumer_secret:
• token:
• token_secret:

Answer 1

You can get the consumer_key and consumer_secret after registering a new app at Tumblr here (it is called OAuth Consumer Key and there is a link below to get the Secret key of the app).

The token and token_secret keys are generated after allowing access of an app to a Tumblr account. They will be returned as parameters after returning to the callback script.

Answer 2

If you have already registered your app and are looking for your keys you can find it at - https://www.tumblr.com/oauth/apps , it will be a list of your apps with their consumer keys and a toggle to reveal their secret keys.
