Once your game is registered, youโll need to generate API Credentials to allow your game to securely communicate with the ReneVerse backend and enable Smart Ads and Branded Objects.
Hereโs how to do it:
From the top navigation menu in the Portal, go to Games and select your newly created game. You'll also be redirected to the Games Dashboard after creating your game.
Navigate to the Settings tab.
In the left-hand sidebar, go to API Credentials.
Click Generate API Credentials.

Once generated, youโll receive a unique API Key and API Secret. These credentials are required for SDK initialization and enabling in-game ad delivery. Keep them secure!
โ ๏ธ Important: These credentials will only be shown once. Be sure to copy and store them securely. If you lose access to them, youโll need to regenerate new ones.
You can also set an expiry date on your API Credentials as an additional precautionary security measure. Whenever your API Credentials expire, just remember that you will need to generate new API Credentials. ReneVerse will notify you near the expiration date via an in-Portal notification and email.
Now, you're ready to begin the process!
