# MSG91 credentials

You can use these credentials to authenticate the following nodes:

* [MSG91](/integrations/builtin/app-nodes/n8n-nodes-base.msg91.md)

## Prerequisites <a href="#prerequisites" id="prerequisites"></a>

Create a [MSG91](https://msg91.com/) account.

## Supported authentication methods <a href="#supported-authentication-methods" id="supported-authentication-methods"></a>

* API key

## Related resources <a href="#related-resources" id="related-resources"></a>

Refer to [MSG91's API documentation](https://docs.msg91.com/overview) for more information about the service.

## Using API key <a href="#using-api-key" id="using-api-key"></a>

To configure this credential, you'll need:

* An **Authentication Key**: To get your Authentication Key, go to the user menu and select **Authkey**. Refer to MSG91's [Where can I find my authentication key? documentation](https://msg91.com/help/api/where-can-i-find-my-authentication-ke) for more information.

## IP Security <a href="#ip-security" id="ip-security"></a>

MSG91 enables [IP Security](https://msg91.com/help/api/what-do-you-mean-by-api-security) by default for authkeys.

For the n8n credentials to function with this setting enabled, add all the [n8n IP addresses](/deploy/use-n8n-cloud/configure-cloud/find-your-ip-addresses.md) as whitelisted IPs in MSG91. You can add them in one of two places, depending on your desired security level:

* To allow any/all authkeys in the account to work with n8n, add the n8n IP addresses in the **Company's whitelisted IPs** section of the **Authkey** page.
* To allow only specific authkeys to work with n8n, add the n8n IP addresses in the **Whitelisted IPs** section of an authkey's details.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.n8n.io/integrations/builtin/credentials/msg91.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
