API keys enable application developers to build applications that utilize authentication and data from the Metafy API for their own account.

Protect your API keys to prevent unauthorized access. API keys can be a security risk if they fall into the wrong hands.

​
Setting up API Keys

1

Create an API Key

To create an API key, navigate to the API Keys section of your account settings.

Click the “Create API Key” button and give your key a description. You can create multiple keys for different applications or services. API keys are scoped so make sure to include the scopes you need when creating a key.

Once you’ve created your key, you’ll be shown the key value. Make sure to copy this value and store it securely. You won’t be able to see it again.

You can also include your API key as a query parameter in your requests:
