# How to Access CSBS

Web-based service management platforms, including HTTPS-based application programming interfaces (APIs) and the management console, are provided for you to access the CSBS service.

- APIs

  Use this access method if you are required to integrate the ECSs on the cloud service platform into a third-party system for secondary development. For detailed operations, see the Cloud Server Backup Service API Reference.

- Management console

  Use this access method if you do not need secondary development. If you already have a cloud service account, log in to the management console and click Cloud Server Backup Service on the homepage.
