Warning

Only the first blockchain key under a newly created company is automatically approved by CargoX. If it is not the first blockchain key under a given company, then such key will need to be approved by your company administrator before you can start using it. All users with proper permissions within the company account will receive a notification reminding them that they can review and approve the newly added blockchain key. You will receive an email once your blockchain key has been activated.
