* Authenticate API requests
* Automate deployments
* Integrate external services
* Manage infrastructure programmatically
* Build custom workflows
* Access platform resources securely

# Security Best Practices

* Never expose API keys publicly
* Rotate keys regularly
* Revoke unused credentials
* Use environment variables for storage
* Restrict access to trusted systems only

<Tip>
  Store API keys securely using environment variables or secret management systems instead of hardcoding them into applications.
