Manage API keys for your space

As a space owner or admin, you can manage API key access for your team by setting shared space API keys and controlling whether users can set their own API keys. This centralizes billing, lets your team access AI models without providing their own API keys, and gives you control over which models are available.

Set space API keys

Set space API keys to allow your space users to access more models without extra cost to them. Space users can still use their own API keys to access models, unless you disallow user API key usage.

Prerequisites

You are the owner or an admin of the space.

Control whether users can set API keys

Choose whether space users can set their own API keys. If you disable this option, they can only use models that do not require API keys or models available through the space API keys. If you enable this option, they can override the space key with their own key for any AI provider.
