The Exports Tab
Space Admins can configure various export types by setting up API keys, from within the Exports tab.
API keys are special tokens that link an account in another system to a Carbon Editor Space.
Example
A publisher uses Carbon Editor to produce content for their print magazine.
The publisher is also rolling out a mobile app version of their magazine, built with Liquid State Ubiquity.
In order to export Documents from Carbon Editor directly to their Liquid State Ubiquity account, the Space Admin copies the API key provided in their Liquid State Ubiquity account, and adds it to the Space Administration Exports tab.

- Click your current Organisation's name in the top navigation bar.
