# How do I rotate or delete an API Key in Rekaz? Source: https://help.rekaz.io/en/articles/16425353-how-do-i-rotate-or-delete-an-api-key-in-rekaz Updated: 2026-08-15 Rotating a key stops the current Base64 value immediately, so update the connected integration with the new value as part of the same change. Deleting a key also stops it immediately and cannot be undone. Verify the key name before either action. # Steps 1. From any Rekaz page, select Search to find Api Keys. _The Rekaz search dialog opens._ 2. Enter Api Keys, then select Api Keys under Pages. _The Api Keys page opens._ 3. For the key that needs a new credential, select Rotate key. _Rekaz displays the Rotate this API key warning for the selected key._ 4. Read the warning, verify the key name, and select Rotate key in the confirmation. _The old Base64 value stops working and the API key rotated dialog displays the replacement value._ 5. Select Copy Base64, store the replacement in the secrets manager, and update the connected integration immediately. _The replacement credential is copied without exposing it in the guide._ 6. After the integration is updated, select Done, I've copied Base64. _The rotation dialog closes._ 7. To revoke a key permanently, select Delete in that key's row. _Rekaz displays the Delete this API key warning._ 8. Verify the key name and warning, then select Delete in the confirmation. _The key stops working immediately and is removed from the list._ 9. Verify that the deleted key no longer appears in the list. _The list no longer contains the key and Rekaz confirms successful deletion._ # Illustrated guide **Step 1:** Open Rekaz Search to find Api Keys.
