Overview

To authenticate with Deepgram, you need:
  1. Region — the Deepgram API host that processes your data.
  2. API Key — a Deepgram API key.
This guide will show you how to get them.

​
Prerequisites

​
Step 1: Choose your region

Deepgram serves its API from these hosts:
  • Global — api.deepgram.com
  • EU — api.eu.deepgram.com
  • Australia — api.au.deepgram.com
  • India — api.in.deepgram.com
Pick the host your requests should go to. Use api.deepgram.com unless you need your data processed in a specific region. The same API key works on every host. See Regional Endpoints.

​
Step 2: Create an API key

  1. Log in to the Deepgram Console. If you have more than one project, pick the project from the drop-down at the top.
  2. Click API keys under Manage in the left sidebar, then click Create a new API key.

  1. Click the copy button next to the secret and store it safely. Deepgram won’t show it again. Tick I know I can’t access this key’s secret again and click Got it.
