    2. Select Create API Key.
    3. Add a description for the key.
    4. Select the user with whom the API key should be associated, or create a new user.
  3. Open the Tridion Sites Content Manager Explorer and select Settings from the left-side menu.
  4. Select the Siteimprove logo and then Content Check.
  5. Provide the API key from step 2 along with the username you associated with the key.
  6. Click Verify to check status of the activation.
