An API key lets one tool or script read your workspace without signing in. Owners and admins manage keys in Settings → API keys. Creating a key needs the Pro plan or the 7-day trial.

​
Create a key

  1. Click New key.
  2. Enter a Name that says what will use it, such as “Claude Code” or “Reporting script”.
  3. Tick what the key can do. See the permissions below.
  4. Choose an Expiry: Never expires, 30 days, 90 days or 1 year.
  5. Click Create key.
  6. Copy the key and click I’ve copied it. It starts with zk_live_.
You see the full key only once. ZynfoAI stores a one-way fingerprint of it, so it can’t show it to you again. If you lose it, revoke it and create another. A workspace can have up to 20 active keys.

​
Permissions

Keys are read-only. No permission lets a tool change your workspace. A key can’t be changed after you create it. To give a tool different permissions, create a new key and revoke the old one.

​
Where keys show

The list shows each key’s name, the first characters of the key, how many permissions it has, when it was last used and when it expires. Keys that expired or were revoked are not listed.

​
Revoke a key

  1. Click the bin button next to the key, named Revoke and the key’s name.
  2. Click Revoke key to confirm.
The key stops working at once, and this can’t be undone. Revoking works on every plan, so you can always switch a key off.

​
Apps you connected with one click

Apps you connected by signing in, such as Claude on the web or ChatGPT, are listed under Connected apps. Click Disconnect next to one to cut its access at once. See Connect Claude, ChatGPT or Perplexity.

​
Keep keys safe

  • Treat a key like a password. Don’t paste it into a chat, an email or public code.
  • Use one key for each tool, so you can revoke one without breaking the others.
  • Set an expiry on keys you only need for a while.
  • If a key may have leaked, revoke it right away.

​
When your plan changes

API access is part of the Pro plan and the trial. If the workspace moves to Starter or Free, every key and connected app stops working straight away. They are kept, and they work again when the workspace is back on Pro. You can still revoke keys and disconnect apps on any plan.
