Regenerate an API key
API keys do not expire, however is a recommended security practice not to use them for too long.
Regenerating an API key invalidates its current value and generates a new value: when you regenerate the key, its old value will be removed from NL Flow memory and all calls to the API of a published workflow associated with the old value of the key will fail. After the regeneration operation is complete, therefore, change the settings of the programs that use workflows via the API key, specifying the new value.
To regenerate an API key, open the API Keys view of the dashboard and:
- Select the key you want to regenerate from the list in the left panel.
- Select Regenerate key on the right panel. A dialog appears.
- Select Regenerate key in the dialog. The new value of the API key is displayed: copy it immediately and save it in a safe place as you do when creating a new key, then you can close the dialog.
