# API Key Management

**Enterprise Feature**

<Note>
  **[Manage your API keys](https://app.requesty.ai/api-keys)** in the Requesty Console.
</Note>

Programmatically manage your organization's API keys using the Requesty API Key Management API. Create, monitor, configure, and delete API keys with code, just like you would from the Requesty console.

## What is API Key Management?

The API Key Management feature allows enterprise customers to automate their API key lifecycle management through a RESTful API. Instead of manually managing keys through the web console, you can integrate key management directly into your workflows and systems.

With this feature, you can:

* Create new API keys with custom permissions and spending limits
* Monitor API key usage and spending in real-time
* Update monthly spending limits programmatically
* Delete unused or compromised keys instantly
* Retrieve comprehensive usage analytics for any date range

## Benefits

* **Automation**: Integrate API key management into your CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure automation
* **Security**: Programmatically rotate keys and manage permissions at scale
* **Cost Control**: Set and update spending limits across all your API keys
* **Monitoring**: Track usage patterns and spending across your organization
* **Compliance**: Maintain audit trails and enforce governance policies

**Tip**: Use descriptive names for your API keys and standardize your naming convention to make management easier across teams.

## Prerequisites

To use the API Key Management endpoints, you need:

1. An enterprise Requesty account
2. An API key with **manage permissions** (read/write access)
3. The manage permission allows you to call all API key management endpoints
