# Authentication

> In this guide we will teach you how to get your API Token so you can authenticate to our API.

First you need to enter the [Dashboard](https://camposcloud.com/dashboard/applications), click on "Your Account" and look for the menu called "Developer", After that click on **"Generate New API Key"**

<Note>
  Dont forget to save your API Key, you will not be able to see it again. If you lose it, you will need to generate a new one.
</Note>

<Danger type="alert">
  Dont share your API Key with anyone, it is a secret key that allows access to your account.
</Danger>

## Using the API Key

To use the API Key, you need to add it to the `Authorization` header of your requests. The format is as follows:

```json theme={null}
{
  "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"
}
```
