1. Navigate to Integrations > API Keys.
2. Click Create New Key.
3. Provide a name for the key (e.g., "Backend Service").
4. Select the scopes/permissions required.
5. Click Create.

:::danger Make sure to copy your API Key immediately. For security reasons, it will not be shown again. :::

Authentication

All API requests must include your API Key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

Rotating Keys

If you suspect a key has been compromised, you can revoke it immediately from the API Keys dashboard and generate a new one.
