# API Key

#### **1️⃣ Choose "API Keys" Tab**

On the **left sidebar**, navigate to the **"Developer API"** section or access <https://platform.takeform.app/developer>

#### **3️⃣ Copy & Save Your API Key**

Your **secret API key** will be displayed **only once** – be sure to copy and save it securely.

💡 **Keep your API key private** to prevent unauthorized access. If you lose it, generate a new one and delete the old one.
