# Creating API keys

> Learn how to create API keys to securely access and integrate with our platform.

API keys allow you to securely authenticate and integrate with the Delino platform programmatically.

## Prerequisites

* Active Delino account
* Appropriate permissions to create API keys in your team

## Creating a new API key

1. Navigate to the API Keys page by clicking **API Keys** in the left sidebar
2. Click the **New Key** button in the top-right corner
3. Configure your API key settings:
   * Enter a descriptive name for the key
4. Click **Create** to generate the key

<Warning>
  Copy and store your API key immediately after creation. For security reasons, you won't be able to view the full key again.
</Warning>

## Managing your API keys

You can view and manage all your API keys at:

* Personal account: [https://app.delino.io/en/teams/\~/api-keys](https://app.delino.io/en/teams/~/api-keys)

From this page, you can:

* View all active API keys
* Revoke keys that are no longer needed

## Best practices

* Use descriptive names that indicate the key's purpose
* Create separate keys for different applications or environments
* Revoke unused or compromised keys immediately
* Never share keys in public repositories or client-side code
