Create and manage API keys
You can now create new API keys in Data Platform for both project groups and individual projects. Go to Data Platform > Projects > API Access to generate, copy or delete an API key.
An API key:
- authenticates your account when using public APIs
- grants access to specific functionality
- applies settings such as rate limits
The account API Keys can be used to access all project groups and projects within this account.
Create a project group API key
Project group keys give access to all projects in that group.
- Under Project Group API Keys, click Add new API key.
- Enter a name (for example, Main key).
- Copy the generated key and use it in your integration.
Create a project API key
Project keys give access to one specific project.
- Under Project API Keys, click Add new API key.
- Enter a name (for example, Secondary key).
- Copy the generated key and use it in your integration.
Keys can be rotated on demand to improve security. Simply create a new key, update your integration, and delete the old one.
