Nylas Manage API keys API is one of 40 APIs that [Nylas](https://apis.io/providers/nylas/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Manage API keys. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, an API reference, API documentation, a getting-started guide, authentication docs, and rate-limit docs.

The Manage API Keys endpoints let you create, list, and delete API keys from your Nylas application outside of the Nylas Dashboard. ## Nylas Service Account <div id="admonition-warning">⚠️ <b>Before you can use the Manage API Keys endpoints, you need to create a Nylas Service Account</b>. If you have a contract with us, you can <a href="/docs/support/#contact-nylas-support">contact Nylas Support</a> for more information.</div> After Nylas Support creates a Service Account for your application, they send you a JSON file with the following information: </br></br> ```json { "type": "service_account", "private_key_id": "<API_KEY_GUID>", "private_key": "<API_KEY_SECRET>", "organization_id": "<ORGANIZATION_GUID>", "region": "us" "permissions": ["apikey.create", "apikey.delete", "apikey.get"] } ``` You use the information in this file to generate the headers that sign your requests (for example, the `X-Nylas-Signature` header uses your private key's RSA, a 2048-bit key, and an SHA-256 hashed string of the path, method, timestamp, nonce, and payload.). Be sure to [store this information securely](/docs/dev-guide/best-practices/#store-secrets-securely).
