# How to generate API Key
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OpenMetadata Uses [REST APIs](https://qlik.dev/apis/) to communicate with Qlik Cloud and fetch relevant metadata, and connecting to these APIs require authentication token as described in [these docs](https://help.qlik.com/en-US/cloud-services/Subsystems/Hub/Content/Sense_Hub/Admin/mc-generate-api-keys.htm).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In this document we will explain how you can generate this token so that OpenMetadata can communicate with Qlik Cloud.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

# Step 2: Provide Name and Generate API Key
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Provide name for the API key you will generate.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Select Expire in time. It will revoke the API in selected time duration.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Click On Generate. Copy the key and keep it somewhere safe.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note: This Key will be generated only once. So remember to keep it in secure location.
