Where to get the API key from? #106

Open Nowaker opened 4 years ago

I've spent 5 minutes going through the Papertrail UI to find a place where I can get my API key or generate one, and I have no clue.

% papertrail                
Authentication token not found. Set config file "token" attribute or PAPERTRAIL_API_TOKEN.

Because apparently Papertrail's UI is convoluted, having a direct link in this error message would be a big help.

Wow, the only place where you can obtain the token is on "Add Systems" screen! https://papertrailapp.com/systems/setup?type=system&platform=unix

On page Settings > Profile, at the bottom of the page you have the option to regenerate the token.
