## Connecting ReClique Core

Below are instructions on how to authenticate ReClique Core using their legacy gateway. This is the authentication Middle's ReClique Core app currently uses. A future transition will begin using Daxko's API gateway.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Create an API user

Any interaction with the API requires valid access credentials. API access is fully managed by each association.

If you are a third-party integrator, you must request API access directly from the association you want to connect to. To grant access, an association system administrator must create a dedicated user account for the third party.

At a minimum, the API user must:

* Have a secure password
* Be granted the `Use Core API` permission

{% hint style="danger" %}
Any user with the **Use Core API** permission **cannot** sign in through the standard user interface. This permission should only be assigned to dedicated API users, not to human login accounts.

{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Fetch your association slug

The **association slug** is the unique identifier for an association within the Core system. It is typically a short word that represents the association and is used as the subdomain of `recliquecore.com`.

#### How to find the association slug

1. Sign in to the Core interface.
2. Click **Profile** in the top-right corner.
3. Locate your **User ID**.

The association slug is the **alphabetic portion before the numbers** in the User ID.

**Example:**\
If the User ID begins with `metropolis_567`, the association slug is `metropolis`.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Enter the association slug and API user credentials in your Middle app connection
