API Keys #
Admins can create and manage API keys for programmatic access to the Command Center REST APIs. Navigate to Settings > Identity and Access > API Keys to see the API keys for your org:
Every API key object has a Secret value that grants access to the Command Center REST APIs, and should be stored securely.
