Every API call to Skyvern requires an API key. The key identifies your organization and determines billing.

​
Finding your API key

Open Settings in the sidebar. Your API key is shown in a masked field. Click the eye icon to reveal the full value, or the copy icon to copy it to your clipboard. API key display with reveal and copy buttons
Treat your API key like a password. Anyone with this key can create runs, read results, and manage workflows on behalf of your organization.

​
Using your key

Every Skyvern API request requires the x-api-key header: 
curl -X POST "https://api.skyvern.com/v1/runs" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "url": "https://example.com", "prompt": "Extract the pricing table" }'
With the Python SDK: 
from skyvern import Skyvern

client = Skyvern(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")
Store the key in an environment variable (SKYVERN_API_KEY) rather than hardcoding it. In production, use your platform’s secrets management (AWS Secrets Manager, Vault, etc.).
