- Go to the API Keys tab → Configuration tab
- Click Create API Key
- Enter a name for the key and enable the required permissions — see Configuration Keys permissions for details
- Click Save and copy the API key
note
You must use a Configuration API Key, not an Ingest Key or Team Management Key. Ingest Keys can only send telemetry data and cannot run queries or access columns. You must be a Team Owner to create an API Key. For more details, see the Honeycomb API Keys documentation.
