Where to Find Your API Key

Last updated: October 2, 2026

API keys are available to users subscribed to a CoinGecko API Paid plan, as well as users on the free Demo plan. Your API key is securely stored and managed directly within your account.

Accessing Your Key 

Your API key is not displayed by default. It will only be revealed once you have actively generated it inside your Developer's Dashboard.

Security Note: Treat your API key like a password. If you suspect your API key has been compromised, you must immediately delete it and generate a new one from your dashboard to prevent unauthorized usage and protect your monthly quota.

Step-by-Step Guides
