DialNexa API Keys

Create and manage DialNexa API keys, including key names, one-time raw key display, edit, delete, and regenerate behavior for existing keys.

DialNexa API keys are organization-level credentials used by external systems to access DialNexa APIs. The Keys page lets users create named keys, see the raw key once, copy it immediately, edit key names, delete keys, and create a new key with expiration behavior for previous keys.

The raw API key is shown once. Once the dialog closes, the dashboard will not be your memory palace.

API Key Actions

These actions are available from the Keys page.

Action	Behavior
Create first key	Creates a named API key and shows the raw key once.
Create another key	Asks whether to expire the previous key now or in 24 hours.
Copy raw key	Copies the newly created key while the one-time dialog is open.
Edit key name	Changes the label used in the table.
Delete key	Removes the selected key.

Create A Key Safely

1. Open Keys

   Use the workspace where the external system should connect.

2. Choose Add Key then API Key

   Enter a name that identifies the system or environment.

3. Copy the raw key immediately

   Store it in your secret manager.

4. Close the dialog only after storing

   The raw key will not be shown again.

5. Rotate old keys intentionally

   Use now or 24 hour expiration based on migration risk.

API Key Mistakes

Using a key from another workspace

Keys are organization-scoped.

Naming every key production

Use system and environment names.

Closing before copying

Create a new key and rotate if the raw value was lost.

Sharing in chat

Use a secret manager, not messages or docs.
