# Generate Your API Key

> Create an API key to start using the Camino Treasury API

## Overview

API keys let you interact with the Camino Treasury API programmatically. Each key is scoped to a single organization, so all data returned is isolated to that organization.

## Steps

<Steps>
  <Step title="Sign in to the Dashboard">
    Go to [app.caminotreasury.com](https://app.caminotreasury.com) and sign in to your account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Navigate to API Keys">
    Open your organization settings and navigate to the **API Keys** section.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create a New Key">
    Click **Create API Key** and give it a descriptive name (e.g., "Production" or "Development").
  </Step>

  <Step title="Copy Your Key">
    Your API key will be displayed once. Copy it and store it securely — you won't be able to see it again.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Keep your API key secret. Do not commit it to version control or expose it in client-side code.
</Note>

## Using Your Key

Include your API key in the `x-api-key` header on every request:

```bash theme={null}
curl https://api.caminotreasury.com/v1/wallets \
  -H "x-api-key: your-api-key"
```
