{% hint style="info" %}
Please note that the Secret Key will only be displayed once. It is possible to regenerate a key, but the old key will be invalidated and any process that uses it will receive an "access denied" error.
{% endhint %}

## Using the API

1\. Use the following method to retrieve your credentials:

```
curl --request GET \
      --url "$your_labdrive_url/api/user/internal/access_methods" \
      --header "authorization: Bearer $your_labdrive_api_key"
```
