Where can I get the API key for my Honey Pot Project account?

Author: T.Sorgdrager (5 Oct 12 4:06am)

Hi,
I just installed the "AVH First Defense Against Spam"-plugin on my Wordpress blog.
In the settings there is an option to check for spammers in the Project Honeypot database.
But the plugin asks for the API key:
"To check a visitor at Project Honey Pot you must enable it below, you must also have an API key. You can get an API key by signing up for free at the Honey Pot Project."

My question is: Where can I get this API key?

Thanks in advance!

regards,
Taco Sorgdrager

The 12 character http:BL API key you need is available here on your dashboard.

When you login, go to "Home -dashboard" at the top of the left column, the first bullet under "Your Stats"

Click on the http:BL API key link.

This has been changed. After logging in, click "Services" tab then look for Http:BL Usage in bold and you in that paragraph you can see where you can request or get your API key.

Its little bit hard to find the API key on Projecthoneypot, so here is an easy instruction on how to find it:

( 1 ) Login to your account
( 2 ) Click on SERVICES on the header
( 3 ) In the HTTP BLACKLIST look at the last paragraph you'll see a link says: http:BL API document.
( 4 ) Click on it.
( 5 ) There you will see a title HTTP: BL USAGE again look at the last paragraph and there is a link says: request an Access Key

( 6 ) Click on it and your API key should be in the table under the: Your http:BL Access Key.

Hope this will helps :)

I always thought that some instructions were a test for who was qualified to use a tool. Now you have given away the key to the test. </sarcasm>

Wow, no change I could have find it on my own.
After this test, I'm ready to hack a bank or something. Probably a lot easier than to find this key.
And thx for the instruction!

And why the heck is this essential key so deep buried here, that you´ll almost never find him? Whats that bullshit? Put the key where everyone finds it in his settings - exactly there: in his account-settings!

For those that can't follow multi-step directions, there is a simpler way to get the API key.

Login to your Project Honey Pot account. near the top left side of your dashboard you will see "Your http:BL API key: none | get one"

Get one is a link. click on that to get your key.

Still a test. A test of observation vs ability to follow directions.

All these other websites with links at the top that say things like "Get Your API Key" are fools. This site is so much better at hiding this.
