# API Keys

> Create, manage, and rotate Userplane API keys

API keys provide programmatic access to the Userplane API. Each key is scoped to the user who created it and shares that user's workspace permissions.

You can manage API keys from the [Developers tab](https://dash.userplane.io/_/account?tab=developers) of your account settings.
