Creating an LTX-2 API key
Create an API key for LTX-2 in the Developer Console. Once created, securely store your key since you won't be able to view it again. With your key in hand, you're ready to start making API requests to LTX-2.
Create an API key
- Log in to the LTX Developer Console
- Click Create API Key
- Enter a name and expiration date for the key
- Click Create API Key again to generate your new key
- Copy your API key and store it somewhere safe (you won't see it again!)
- Click Done to finish
Warning: You won't see your full API key again
You'll only see your full API key once after creation, so copy and store it securely immediately.
Tips for naming your API key
Choose a descriptive name that clearly identifies where and how the key will be used. Since you'll typically only see the key name (and the first few characters) in your key management interface, make it count.
- Use environment identifiers like "Production App," "Staging Environment," or "Development Testing"
- Include the application or integration name, like "Mobile App iOS" or "Website Backend"
- Be specific enough to identify the key at a glance when managing multiple keys
- Avoid generic names like "Key 1" or "Test" that won't help you track usage later
Clear naming becomes especially helpful when you need to rotate or revoke a key quickly without disrupting the wrong integration.
