Next, click on the "Sign up" button in the top right corner to get started. Then complete the registration form.
You will then be prompted to create your Wonderware Online InSight solution. Provide any name that you like for your new solution that will contain your soon to be published data.

Once in the administration page, click on "Data Sources".
Click the "+" icon to create a new data source.
Provide any name that you like for your new CSV/JSON data source and click "OK".
Once your new data source has been created, you will be shown its API authentication token. Click on the "Copy" icon to copy this string to the clipboard.
