Finding Your API Key

Your Novageness API key is already generated for you — there is no “create key” step. It’s a single key that works across all supported AI tools and models. Where you find it depends on which dashboard your organization is on. Log in first, at gateway.novageness.com or your organization’s custom domain, then follow whichever of these matches what you see.

​
If you have Connect in the left sidebar

1

Open Connect → AI Coding Tools

Click Connect in the left sidebar, then AI Coding Tools.
2

Select your tool

Click the tool you want to use (Claude Code, Roo Code, Cursor, etc.).
3

Copy your API key

For Roo Code, Cline, Kilo Code and Custom Access the key appears in its own field — click Copy. For every other tool the key is already embedded in the setup command shown on the page, so copy the whole command.

​
If you don’t

Some organizations are on the newer Configure page instead, and have no Connect entry in the sidebar. Use the Configure button in the top-right of the header. Your key is embedded in the install command in step 3 — masked on screen, complete when you copy it.
The Configure button only appears for Admins and Analytics Viewers. If you have neither Connect in the sidebar nor a Configure button, your role can’t reach the key from the dashboard — ask an organization admin for it, or install the Novageness CLI and run novageness login, which fetches it for you.
Your API key is sensitive. Never share it publicly, commit it to a git repository, or expose it in client-side code.

​
Don’t See an API Key?

If you reach the page but no key is shown:
  • “Your API key is being generated. This usually takes a few moments.” — wait a moment and refresh. If the message persists, contact support.
  • Make sure you’re logged into the correct organization
  • Verify you have the necessary permissions — contact your organization administrator if you’re a new user
  • Some enterprise configurations require admins to enable tools before API keys become available
If the page itself won’t load and you see “Unable to load configuration data. Please try again later.”, that is a loading failure rather than a permissions problem — refresh, and contact support if it repeats.

​
API Keys for Specific Tools

Your single Novageness API key works across all supported integrations:
Your single Novageness API key gives you access to all models enabled for your organization — Claude, GPT, Gemini, and more. You don’t need separate keys for each provider.

​
How Tools Display API Keys

The Connect → AI Coding Tools page shows two types of setup flows depending on the tool: Tools that display a dedicated API key field (with a Regenerate button):
  • Roo Code
  • Cline
  • Kilo Code
  • Custom Access
For these tools, you’ll see your API key directly on the tool’s page along with a Regenerate button next to it. Tools that provide setup scripts or commands (no separate API key field):
  • Cursor
  • Claude Code (Subscription)
  • Claude Code (API Key)
  • Codex (Subscription)
  • Codex (API Key)
  • GitHub Copilot
  • Gemini CLI
  • Cowork
For these tools, the API key is embedded inside the setup script or commands shown on the tool’s page. Just copy the provided script/commands as-is — the key is already included.

​
How to Regenerate Your API Key

The Regenerate button is only available for tools with a dedicated API key field (Roo Code, Cline, Kilo Code, Custom Access). For other tools, the key is part of the setup script and doesn’t have a standalone regenerate action.
1

Go to Connect → AI Coding Tools

Navigate to the Connect section in the sidebar, then click AI Coding Tools. If your dashboard has no Connect entry, this per-tool Regenerate button isn’t available to you — see Rotating keys for other people below.
2

Click into your tool

Select Roo Code, Cline, Kilo Code, or Custom Access to open its setup page.
3

Click the Regenerate button

The Regenerate button appears next to your API key. Click it to generate a new key.
4

Update all your integrations

Copy the new key and update it in all tools, scripts, and environment variables where you use it.
Regenerating your key immediately invalidates the old key. Any tool still using the old key will stop working until you update it.

​
Rotating keys for other people

Admins can rotate other members’ keys in bulk from Configure → Actions → Rotate API Keys. Select up to five members at a time, type ROTATE to confirm, and the rotation runs in the background — you’ll be notified when it finishes.
This invalidates the selected members’ keys immediately. Any tool or device still holding an old key stops working until that person copies the new one.
There is no self-service way to rotate your own key from the Configure page. If your tool isn’t one of the four with a Regenerate button, ask an admin to rotate it for you.
