How to Connect GDSense With Your API Key

Make sure the account can create a key

API keys become available after Free access is approved or a subscription is confirmed by the server. If the Account page does not offer key generation yet, finish the access step shown there before configuring the plugin.

• You can sign in to the GDSense dashboard.
• Your account has Free access or an active Starter, Pro, or Ultra subscription.
• The target Godot project already has the GDSense plugin enabled.

Generate and copy the API key

1. 1

   Open Account

   Sign in at gdsense.com and choose Account from the dashboard navigation.

2. 2

   Generate the key

   In the API Key card, choose Generate API Key. If an active key already exists, the control reads Regenerate API Key instead.

3. 3

   Copy the complete value

   Use the copy control while the new value is visible. Later visits show only the key prefix, not the complete credential.

Keep in mind: Regenerating replaces the active key. Any plugin still using the previous value must be updated with the newly generated key.

Save the key in the GDSense dock

1. 1

   Open Settings

   In the right-side GDSense dock, choose the Settings tab.

2. 2

   Paste the key

   Paste the complete value into the API Key field. The field is hidden by default; use Show only when you need to inspect it.

3. 3

   Save

   Choose Save and wait for the status text beneath the field to update.

4. 4

   Return to Chat

   Once the status confirms the key loaded, choose Chat and send a focused test request.

Treat the key like a password

• Do not paste the key into a chat prompt, screenshot, issue, or public message.
• Do not commit the key to the Godot project or any version-control repository.
• Regenerate the key from Account if you believe the complete value was exposed.
• Update the plugin Settings tab immediately after regenerating.
