Description

_(Hello,

Do I need to create a Yelp Fusion account or use my existing Yelp business login to get my business API? Every time I sign into "Create App" my login takes me directly to my business dashboard and when I return I need to keep signing in. It is an endless loop. Please let me know!

Hi @jasalvarez,

in order to create an API key you need to signup for a Yelp user account first on https://www.yelp.com/signup.
