# API Keys

API Keys make it possible to authenticate requests to the Flows API and [HTTP Endpoint blocks](/core-blocks-reference/http-blocks). You can also use them with the [Flows TF Provider](https://github.com/spacelift-io/terraform-provider-flows) and the [Flows CLI](https://github.com/spacelift-io/flowctl).

To create an API Key, click your avatar in the upper-left corner, then select “Settings”, and click the “Authorizations => API Keys” tab in the left sidebar.

There, you’ll be able to create and manage your API Keys.
