Particle allows developers, hardware engineers, and DIY makers to build Internet-connected devices via WiFi, Cellular and Mesh connectivity. To learn more about the Particle API, visit their page ([https://docs.particle.io/reference/device-cloud/api/](https://docs.particle.io/reference/device-cloud/api/)). You connect to your Particle account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Particle connector user interface. General information for adding DataSets, setting update schedules, and editing DataSet information is discussed in [Adding a DataSet Using a Data Connector](/s/article/360042926274 "Adding a DataSet Using a Data Connector"). ## Prerequisites To connect to your Particle account and create a DataSet, you must have a Particle access token. For help generating a token, please consult the [Particle.io API documentation](https://docs.particle.io/reference/device-cloud/api/#generate-an-access-token "https://docs.particle.io/reference/device-cloud/api/#generate-an-access-token"). ## Connecting to Your Particle Account This section enumerates the options in the **Credentials** and **Details** panes in the Particle Connector page. The components of the other panes in this page, **Scheduling** and **Name & Describe Your DataSet**, are universal across most connector types and are discussed in greater length in [Adding a DataSet Using a Data Connector](/s/article/360042926274 "Adding a DataSet Using a Data Connector"). ### Credentials Pane This pane contains fields for entering credentials to connect to your Particle account. The following table describes what is needed for each field:

Field	Description
Access Token	Enter your Particle access token. For help generating a token, please consult the Particle.io API documentation .

Once you have entered valid Particle credentials, you can use the same account any time you go to create a new Particle DataSet. You can manage connector accounts in the **Accounts** tab in the Data Center. For more information about this tab, see [Managing User Accounts for Connectors](/s/article/360042926054 "Managing User Accounts for Connectors"). ### Details Pane This pane contains a primary **Reports** menu, along with various other menus which may or may not appear depending on the report type you select.
