Using API keys

API keys let you access your Anghello organization's data from your own applications or scripts. This guide shows you how to create and manage your API keys.


Audience: Administrators
Application: Admin (app.anghello.co)
Estimated time: 5 minutes


Before you start


  • You need an Administrator account on Anghello
  • The "API & Webhooks" add-on must be included in your subscription


Creating an API key


1. Open the API Keys page


In the left-hand menu, click the box showing your first name at the very bottom, then click API Keys.



2. Create a key


Click the Generate API Key button. A window asks you to name your key (for example "CRM integration" or "Export script").


3. Copy the key


Your API key is generated and displayed. It has the format ak_xxxxxxxxxxxx.


Important: Copy the key immediately and keep it somewhere safe. For security reasons, the full value can no longer be shown after this step.


Managing your keys


The key list shows:


Column

Description

Name

The name you gave the key

Value

The masked key (click the eye icon to reveal it temporarily)

Created

The creation date

Actions

Copy the key or revoke it


Revoking a key


If a key is compromised or no longer used:


1. Click Revoke to the right of the key concerned.


2. Confirm the revocation.


Important: Revocation is immediate and irreversible. Every application using this key will stop working. Create a new key if needed.


Good to know


💡 Tip: Use explicit names for your keys ("Salesforce integration", "Weekly report") so you can easily tell which service uses which key.


💡 Tip: Create one key per application or service. If a key is compromised, you can revoke it without affecting your other integrations.


Important: Never share your API keys in public source code or emails. Treat them like passwords.


Troubleshooting


Problem

Solution

The API Keys page doesn't appear

The "API & Webhooks" add-on isn't included in your subscription. Contact our team.

My key no longer works

Check that it hasn't been revoked. Create a new key if needed.

I lost my key

Create a new key and update your applications. An existing key's value can't be recovered.
