This is not strictly required, but it is generally considered polite, and it will speed up your data requests (the polite get served first!). To request a token, navigate to [`data.cdc.gov`'s developer settings page](https://data.cdc.gov/profile/edit/developer_settings). You will be prompted to log in. If you have CDC credentials, you can use those. Otherwise, you can [sign up for an account](https://data.cdc.gov/signup) with Tyler Data and Insights (the contractor that manages `data.cdc.gov`). Once logged in, navigate to the [developer settings page](https://data.cdc.gov/profile/edit/developer_settings), click the "Create new API key" button and follow the prompts.
