# Squarespace Commerce connection guide

This guide contains all permissions and requirements for connecting your Squarespace Commerce data to Supermetrics.

You can connect to data sources from the [Data sources page on the Supermetrics Hub](https://hub.supermetrics.com/token-management). On the Hub, you can also [share an authentication link](/v1/docs/how-to-connect-to-data-sources-from-supermetrics-hub#share-authentication-link) to connect to a data source you don't have direct access to.

After you connect to the data source on the Hub, you can use the data source connection in [all available destinations](/v1/docs/squarespace-commerce-connection-guide#connection-instructions).

## Required permissions

You need an API key in order to connect to Squarespace Commerce.

Follow these steps to generate an API key:

1. Log in to your [Squarespace](https://login.squarespace.com/) site.
2. In the left side navigation, click **Settings**.
3. Select **Developer Tools**.
4. Click **Developer API Keys**.
5. Click **GENERATE KEY**.
6. In the dialog, add a key name under "KEY NAME", and enable “Read only” permission on the following: Products, Orders, Profiles
7. Click **GENERATE KEY** in the top right of the dialog.
8. Record the generated key in a safe and secure place.

For security reasons, this is the only time the API key is visible. API keys will never expire as long as the merchant site remains active.
