# Manage API keys

> Create, store, rename, review, and revoke Superdata API keys.

API keys authenticate requests to the four REST APIs and non-interactive
clients using the hosted MCP endpoint.

## Create a key

1. Open **Connections**.
2. Select **Create API key**.
3. Enter a name between 2 and 64 characters.
4. Copy the complete `sd_live_...` secret immediately.
5. Store it in a secret manager or environment variable.

> [!WARNING]
>
> Superdata displays the complete secret only once. If you lose it, create a
> replacement and revoke the old key.

## Review keys

The Connections table shows each key's safe display value, creation date, last
use, and status. It never returns the stored secret.

## Rename a key

Use the key's action menu and select **Rename**. Renaming does not change the
secret or interrupt the connection.

## Revoke a key

Use the action menu and select **Revoke key**. Revocation takes effect
immediately and cannot be undone. Replace the credential in every client before
revoking a key that is still in use.

> [!TIP]
>
> Use a separate key per computer, automation, or environment. Names such as
> `Codex laptop` and `CI enrichment` make rotation safer.
