  <h2>Before You Start</h2>

  <p>If you already have your Client ID and Client Secret stored securely from a previous setup, you can use those existing credentials instead of generating new ones.<br /><br />Resetting your API keys will disconnect all integrations that currently use them. Only generate new keys if you do not have your existing credentials or need to revoke access for security reasons.</p>
