To locate the Key and Secret, you can click on Settings (gear icon), on the top right hand corner in the ShipStation dashboard.

MESA workflows that contain ShipStation (such as Shipment Created) will run on a polling system. Meaning, on every hour or whatever the selected frequency is selected in your MESA workflow, MESA will look for any recent activity in ShipStation. As a result, you may not see immediate activity in your MESA workflow until the frequency hits.
