2. In the top right of the screen, click your **profile avatar** and then click **Administration** to open your _Account_ page.
3. On the _Account_ page, under _Site_ in _General Settings_, view the cloud information.

## Create an API token and client ID

2. In the top right of the screen, click your profile avatar and then click **Administration**.
3. From the left menu of the _Administration_ page, click **Developer Access**.
4. In the top right of the _Developer Access_ page, click the **Create New** button.
5. In the _Create client credentials_ dialog, for _Select privileges_, click the **Rest API** checkbox, and then enter the following details:

- `Can View` permission for all the Sigma workbooks and datasets you want to crawl.
- `Can Use` permission for all the Sigma connections used in the workbooks and datasets.
