#How do I get the key

Hi @past prairie. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
It’s not totally clear which “key” you mean, so here are the two most common cases covered in the docs:
1. Getting the auth token to log into Warp
If you’re trying to sign in and need the auth token:
- Open a browser and go to:
- Signup: <https://app.warp.dev/signup> (if you don’t have an account), or
- Login: <https://app.warp.dev/login> (if you already have one).
- After logging in, you’ll land on
<https://app.warp.dev/logged_in.> - On that page, click the “here” link to copy the authentication token.
- Paste that token into Warp’s login prompt. On Linux/Windows, use
CTRL-SHIFT-Vto paste. [Troubleshooting login]
If “Take me to Warp” doesn’t work, always fall back to copying the “here” link and pasting the token manually. [Troubleshooting login]
2. Getting a Warp Platform API key (for the Warp CLI / agents)
If you need an API key for the Warp CLI:
- In the Warp app, click your profile photo (top-right).
- Go to Settings → Platform.
- In API Keys, click + Create API Key.
- Name the key, choose an expiration, then click Create key.
- Use that key via env var or CLI flag as described in the CLI docs. [CLI login]
If you meant a different key (e.g., Linux package signing key, MCP auth token), reply with a bit more detail (OS and what you’re trying to do), and I can point to the exact steps from the docs.
Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon:
