# How to get your Humaans API Key: Step-by-step guide
------
_November 14, 2023_


When connecting Humaans to other platforms, authentication requires an API Key.

Follow these step-by-step instructions to generate one from your Humaans account, or provide them to your customers if they need to connect their account.


1. Log in to the Humaans Admin Dashboard
2. Go to Settings
3. Open API access tokens
4. Click Create new token
5. Give it a name (e.g. "Unified.to")
6. Copy the generated token
7. Paste it into the API Token field
8. Click Authorize


**Note:** You'll need **Admin access** in Humaans to see "API access tokens."


You've now retrieved your Humaans API Key. That's one system covered, but scaling integrations one by one means repeating this process hundreds of times.

Unified.to handles this for you: 475 integrations out of the box, all with normalized schemas, real-time delivery, and [Virtual [Webhooks](/blog/replacing_polling_with_unified_webhooks_and_virtual_streams)](/blog/unlock_real_time_data_with_virtual_webhooks). No polling scripts, no retry logic, no maintenance backlog.
