=== Importing/creating characters ===

~~Much like EFT, Pyfa can import~~ your character ~~sheet using an API-key. To create a predefined API-key go~~ to ~~[https://community.eveonline.com/support/api-key/CreatePredefined?accessMask=8 this page] and tick 'no expiry~~'.

To connect your EVE character to PYFA you will need to use CCP's ESI SSO.

~~Once you have set up an API-key~~:

To do this:

# Open the Character ~~Editor~~ (~~Window~~ -> ~~Character Editor or press Ctrl-E~~)

# Open the ''SSO Character Management'' screen ('''Character''' -> '''Manage ESI Characters''').

# Create a new character by clicking ~~the [[File:PYFA new char~~.~~PNG]] icon, name the character and click create~~

# Create a new character by clicking '''Add Character'''.

# ~~Enter the Key ID and Verification code from the API key you created (can be found [https://community.eveonline~~.~~com/support/api-key/ here])~~

# A page will open in your default browser - sign in using your EVE Online account credentials.

# ~~Click get characters and choose~~ the correct character from the ~~drop down box~~

# Select the correct character from the list.

# Click ~~Fetch Skills~~

# Click '''Authorise'''.

You can re-open the character editor at any time and edit a characters skill sheet, to do this open the character editor, select a character and click the skills tab. Just right click on a skill to change to the desired level. To revert changed skills to actual skills go to the API tab and click fetch skills.

~~To create a custom character follow the above instructions, after step 2 open the Skills tab, expand any tree and right click on a skill.~~

You can also import character files (for example [[EVEMon]]'s .xml files) directly into Pyfa. This can be very useful if you have certain low-skilled doctrines or other variations that isn't easily checked by your existing characters or the All 5 variant.
