# Connect Quartr with API Key – StackOne Hub

> Link a Quartr account in the StackOne Hub using API Key. End-user guide to authorize the integration and start using Quartr actions.

<Warning>Access to each dataset is governed by your Quartr subscription plan, not by the API key itself. Companies and events are available on every plan; audio, transcripts, reports, slides, summaries and parsed documents each require their own entitlement.</Warning>

  <h2>Create a Quartr API key</h2>

  <p>Quartr authenticates API requests with a key sent in the <strong>x-api-key</strong> header. Generate one in the Quartr Portal and paste it into StackOne Hub.</p>

  <Steps>
    <Step title="Sign in to the Quartr Portal">
      <div data-guide-step data-guide-scopes="" data-guide-display-scopes-list="">
        <p>Go to the <a href="https://portal.quartr.dev" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Quartr Portal</a> and sign in with the account that holds your API subscription.</p>
      </div>
    </Step>

    <Step title="Open the API keys section">
      <div data-guide-step data-guide-scopes="" data-guide-display-scopes-list="">
        <p>Once signed in, navigate to the <strong>API keys</strong> section of the portal.</p>
      </div>
    </Step>

    <Step title="Generate a new key">
      <div data-guide-step data-guide-scopes="" data-guide-display-scopes-list="">
        <p>Click <strong>New API Key</strong>. The new key appears in the list — copy it straight away and store it securely.</p>
      </div>
    </Step>

    <Step title="Paste the key into StackOne">
      <div data-guide-step data-guide-scopes="" data-guide-display-scopes-list="">
        <p>Paste the key into the <strong>API Key</strong> field in StackOne Hub and save the connection. StackOne verifies it by listing companies.</p>

        <ul>
          <li>Keys have no expiry date. Deleting a key in the portal revokes it immediately, which will break any StackOne connection using it.</li>
          <li>If a connected action returns <strong>403 Forbidden</strong> while others succeed, the key is valid but your plan does not include that dataset — contact your Quartr representative rather than regenerating the key.</li>
        </ul>

        <li>Click <strong>Connect</strong></li>
        <li>If applicable, the provider will redirect you to a sign-in or authorization page. Complete the provider's authorization flow.</li>
