Your API key (click on your username in the control panel, then choose “Account Settings”, then “API Key: Show”) Your account number (appears in parentheses next to your username when you are logged in to the control panel at ) Your username (you picked this when you created your account) When you’re logged in to your account, you can see the region names.

#Rackspace control panel login install
