Create an Anthale API Key for Server-Side Use

This guide creates a new Anthale API key for a service, environment, or operational boundary.

Before you start

Select the Organization that should own the key.
Decide which service or environment will use it.
Have your secret manager or deployment platform ready before you create the key.

Open API keys in the dashboard

In the Anthale dashboard, open the API key page for the Organization that will own the key.

Start the create flow

Create a new key for the service or environment that needs to call Anthale by clicking the “Create API Key” button in the top right of the page.

Add clear metadata

Give the key a name that identifies the caller. Add a description if you want extra ownership or environment context.

Create the key

Finish the create flow and copy the new key into a secure location immediately.

Save the key in your secret manager or deployment platform before you move to the next task.
Treat Anthale API keys as server-side credentials only.
Do not put Anthale API keys in browser code, mobile apps, screenshots, or source control.

Use one API key per service boundary or environment. That makes it easier to disable or delete one key without interrupting unrelated traffic.

Confirm the new key appears in the API keys list with the expected name.
Use it in Authentication, the Python Direct SDK Path, or the TypeScript Direct SDK Path when you are ready to test the integration.

For inspection, cleanup, or runtime auth, see View API keys, Delete an API key, or Authentication.
