# Manage API keys

Create and delete API keys required to use the Aximo API.

For details about the API, see the [API Reference](https://aximo.autify.com/docs/api) in Aximo Docs.

## Create an API key

1. In the lower-left corner of the screen, click the account icon, then click **Settings**.
2. In the left menu, click **API Keys**.
3. Click **Create API Key**.
4. Enter a key name, such as `CI/CD Pipeline`.
5. Click **Create**.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The API key value is shown only once immediately after creation. Copy it right away and store it in a secure location.
{% endhint %}

## Delete an API key

1. On the **API Keys** page, find the key you want to delete.
2. In the key row, click the delete icon.
3. In the confirmation dialog, click **Delete**.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Deleted API keys cannot be restored. If a pipeline uses the key, create a new key before deleting the old one.
{% endhint %}
