# API Keys

> Use API keys to integrate video generation into your app.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create account">
    First, make sure you have an [Infinite
    Creator](https://infinitecreator.com) account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create key">
    Once you’ve created an account, navigate to the [Developers
    page](https://infinitecreator.com/dashboard/api). Then, click the
    **Create new key** button. The key will be presented to you only once:
    immediately copy it someplace safe, like a password manager. We’ll never
    return the key in plaintext again; if you lose the key, you’ll need to
    delete it and create a new one.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add credits">
    Before you can start using the API, you’ll need to add credits to your
    account. Credits are used to pay for the compute resources used by Tasks
    and are billed separately from subscription plans. Use the [Developers
    page](https://infinitecreator.com/dashboard/api) to buy credits,
    add a payment method, and configure [Auto-refill](/billing/autobilling).
