To authenticate your requests to the Tempest API, you’ll need to generate an API key. Follow the steps below to generate an API key:

1

Navigate to your organization's settings page

In your Tempest web console, click on the arrow in the top left corner—next to your organization mame—and click on the Settings option.

2

Generate an API key

In the API Keys page, enter a name for your key and, optionally, configure it’s TTL. Once you’re ready, click Create Key.

3

Next steps

Once your key is created, you’ll be able to copy it to your clipboard. Your API key can be used to authenticate your Tempest CLI via the tempest auth login command or can be used directly in in the Authorization header if you’re using the Tempest API.
