# Eagle Doc - How do I link my account?

## Overview

To authenticate with Eagle Doc, you need:

1. **API Key** — a personal Eagle Doc API key (starts with `API-`) or a business API key (starts with `APIB-`).

This guide will show you how to get it.

### Prerequisites

* An Eagle Doc account. You can [sign up](https://docai.eagle-doc.com/#/auth/signup) for the free plan; no credit card is required.

### Step 1: Get your API key

Both kinds of key work. Use a personal key for your own account, or a business key to call the API on behalf of an Eagle Doc business.

**Personal API key**

1. [Log in](https://docai.eagle-doc.com/#/auth/login) to the Eagle Doc dashboard.
2. In the left menu, expand **For Developer** and click **API key**.

3. Your personal API key (starts with `API-`) is shown on the page. Click **Copy API key**. Do not click **Generate new API key**: it revokes the current key right away.

**Business API key**

Business API keys are created by a business owner or admin.

1. If you don't have a business yet, click the account switcher at the top of the dashboard (**Personal**) and choose **Create business**.
2. Switch to your business, open **Settings** under **Business**, and select the **API keys** tab.
3. Enter a key name, then click **Create key**.

4. Copy the key (starts with `APIB-`) from the **API key created** dialog. It will not be shown again.

### Step 2: Enter your API key in the Connect UI

1. Open the form where you need to authenticate with Eagle Doc.
2. Enter your **API Key** in the designated field.
3. Submit the form, and you should be successfully authenticated.
