# Authentication

Your API requests are authenticated using API keys. Any request that doesn't include an API key will return an error.  You can generate API keys from your Safi Dashboard at any time.

Create Account: <https://safi.insolify.com>
{% endhint %}

### Getting Your API Keys.

1. Create an account on safiloop.com&#x20;
2. Login and Go to Dashboard
3. Navigate to Settings
4. Locate API & Secret Keys.

The APIs are authenticated with headers for every request. Look at how apikey and secret key placement is done in sample requests for each endpoint.

### Changing Your Keys&#x20;

Whenever your keys got compromised, it is important you regenerate new ones to avoid surprises.
