Before you start using the API, you should prepare a few things.

Go to My Account
Click on Settings
Go to the API Keys section
You can then create API keys and define their scope
Copy your tokens in a safe place

❗️
Keep your API keys safe
API tokens are personal and grant access to private resources. Handle them with care.
If in doubt, you can always generate new tokens.
Ensure API key updates are planned carefully to maintain synchronization between your application and the platform. Deleting an active key may disrupt any app still relying on it.
