Overview

To authenticate with Snipe-IT, you need:
  1. API Token - A token that grants Nango permission to interact with Snipe-IT’s API resources and services.
  2. Domain - Your Snipe-IT instance URL (e.g., yourcompany.snipe-it.io).
This guide will walk you through obtaining these credentials within Snipe-IT.

​
Prerequisites:

  • You must have an account with Snipe-IT (either self-hosted or cloud instance).
  • You must have admin privileges to generate API tokens.

​
Instructions:

​
Step 1: Create an API Token

  1. Log in to your Snipe-IT instance (e.g., https://yourcompany.snipe-it.io).
  2. Navigate to Account > API Keys from the top-right user menu.
  3. Click Create New Token.
  4. Enter a Name for your token (e.g., “Nango Integration”).
  5. Click Save to generate the token.
  6. Copy the generated API token immediately (it will only be shown once).

​
Step 2: Finding Your Domain

  1. Note your domain URL (the part before /admin in your browser URL).
For the demo instance at demo.snipe-it.io, you can use username admin and password password to test the integration.

​
Step 3: Enter credentials in the Connect UI

Once you have your API Token and Domain:
  1. Open the form where you need to authenticate with Snipe-IT.
  2. Enter your Domain (e.g., yourcompany.snipe-it.io - without https://).
  3. Enter your API Token in its respective field.
  4. Submit the form, and you should be successfully authenticated.
You are now connected to Snipe-IT.
