Make a note of what you enter in the **SHIP API Key** field, as this will be needed when configuring SHIP in Salto Space.

## Settings in Salto Space {#salto-space-prerequisites}

To configure the server running Space to communicate with the XS4 Face Server, run the **Space Install Script** in an Administrator Powershell terminal on the Space server, and set the fields in the [Face recognition tab of General Options](/space/user-guide/operator/general-options/face-recognition) to match those shown in the **Space General Options** section of the integration configuration.

Ensure the following settings are correct in Salto Space:

- The Space service **must** be running on HTTPS.
This is done in the [Space Configurator](/space/user-guide/systems-admin/check-configuration).
- The SHIP add-on is enabled.
- SHIP is configured to use HTTP(S) with custom authentication in the [SHIP tab of General options](/space/user-guide/operator/general-options/ship#salto-ship-server-panel).
Input the **SHIP API Key** from the XS4 Face integration configuration as the API Key for custom authentication.

To reset the API key, click the **refresh** icon in the **Authentication (API key)** field.
You will need to update the API key in the [Face recognition tab of General Options](/space/user-guide/operator/general-options/face-recognition).
