API keys automatically created with each pod

[gray wind]

I noticed in my audit logs that an API Key was created automatically every time I created a pod. Just wanted to check that that's normal?

so in settings you are seeing a ton of api keys?

[gray wind]

No there are no api keys in my settings. It only shows in my audit logs that an API Key is created every time I created a pod, and that the API key is deleted when I delete a pod. The API keys in the audit logs don't show up in my API key settings.

yep, if you look at the docs of pod's env variable there is an env for accesing a api token

ok, but i'm not trying to access an api token. The api tokens were created automatically (I did not create them, they were created automatically each time I created a pod). I just want to check if this is a normal process that runpod is responsible for.

[flat kindle]

yes it is normal process

all pod has its own api key
