  <h2>Find your API key</h2>

  <p>Your API key authenticates every request. It is created together with your account and stays available on the <strong>Dashboard</strong>, so it can be copied again at any time.</p>

  <Steps>
    <Step title="Sign in to IPGeolocation.io">
      <div data-guide-step data-guide-scopes="" data-guide-display-scopes-list="">
        <p>Sign in to your <a href="https://app.ipgeolocation.io/login" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">IPGeolocation.io account</a>.</p>

        <ul>
          <li>The <strong>Dashboard</strong> opens by default. If you navigate away, click <strong>Dashboard</strong> in the left sidebar.</li>
          <li>Scroll to the <strong>API Keys</strong> panel, below <strong>Current API Plan</strong>.</li>

        <p>In the <strong>API Keys</strong> panel, click <strong>Copy API key</strong> in the <strong>Actions</strong> column.</p>

        <ul>
          <li>The <strong>Key</strong> column shows the key masked, so use <strong>Copy API key</strong> to copy the full value.</li>
          <li>Paste it into the <strong>API Key</strong> field in StackOne Hub.</li>
          <li>The <strong>Developer (Free)</strong> plan includes a single API key. <strong>Add more</strong> requires a paid plan.</li>
          <li>IPGeolocation.io sends the key as a URL query parameter, so treat it as a secret and avoid logging full request URLs. Click <strong>Reset API key</strong> to rotate it if it is ever exposed.</li>
        </ul>
