• API keys are used to authenticate requests to APIs
• Should be long and unpredictable for security
• Never share API keys publicly or in version control
• Use environment variables to store API keys
• Rotate API keys regularly
• Different prefixes help identify key types
• Stripe-style keys use prefixes like sk_live, pk_test
• Generate new keys if compromised
