How API keys work
- Create a key with New API key.
- The key value is shown once, right after creation, for you to copy — store it safely, because you won’t be able to see it again.
- Revoke a key you no longer use by deleting it. Revocation is immediate: the external tool loses access as soon as the key is deleted.
Common tasks
Create and copy a key
1
Open API Keys
Go to Settings → Workspace → API Keys.
2
Create the key
Click New API key.
3
Copy it now
Copy the key value while it’s displayed — this is the only time it’s shown. Store it in a safe place, then paste it into the external tool that needs to connect.
Revoke a key
1
Open API Keys
Go to Settings → Workspace → API Keys.
2
Delete the key
Delete the key you want to revoke. Access is cut off immediately, so any tool still using it will stop working.
API keys and workflow credentials solve different problems. API keys let external tools reach into your workspace. Credentials let your workflows reach out to external services from inside a workflow node.
