# Login

<details>

<summary>I'm getting 'One or more of your API Credentials are invalid' when trying to login</summary>

There are two likely scenarios where you can get an invalid credentials error.

**You are not the Owner of your app:**

While the User Management feature of the Dashboard allows multiple users to login and view the dashboard, only an App's "Owner" username and password will allow you to generate a token.\
You can view who your App's owner is on the [team view](https://channel.violet.io/settings/team)

**You are using the wrong App Secret for the environment you are trying to login:**

While your username and password will be the same across environments (test and live) as will your `X-Violet-App-Id`, this is **not** true for your `X-Violet-App-Secret`.\
The `X-Violet-App-Secret` you retrieve from the Channel dashboard is *different* depending on the live/test mode toggle. You must use the correct app secret that corresponds to the environment you are trying to login to: `test` for `sandbox-api.violet.io` and `live` for `api.violet.io`.
