## How to Create an API key

<Steps>
  <Step title="Navigate to API Settings">
    Log in to your dashboard and navigate to [**Settings > API keys**](https://app.oneform.one/settings/api_keys) to view your current keys.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Generate a New Key">
    Click the "Create API key" button to generate a new token.

    <Note>
      You can generate separate API keys for each integration. This allows you to revoke specific keys when they are no longer needed without affecting your other integrations.
    </Note>

  </Step>

  <Step title="Secure Your API Key">
    Copy your new API key immediately and store it in a secure location, such as a password manager or environment variable. For security purposes, the key will not be shown again. If you lose it, you will need to generate a new one.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Authenticate Requests">
    Use your API key to authenticate your API requests. Include it as a Bearer token in the `Authorization` header of your HTTP requests.

    ```bash theme={null}
    Authorization: Bearer sk-xxxx
    ```
