## Overview

### Instructions

#### Step 1: Find your API key

1. Log in to your account and go to the [API keys](https://app.finta.io/settings/api) page.
2. Click **Create Key**.

3. Enter a name, select the account access, then click **Create Key**.
4. Copy the key immediately — it's only displayed once. It looks like `finta_...`.

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

Once you have your API key:

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