# API Keys

⚠️ API keys are currently not being enforced but will be enforced in the near future!

Go to[ authereum.com/dashboard](https://authereum.com/dashboard) to get your api key to avoid being rate limited. 

Include the API key in the configuration object when initializaing the Authereum SDK:

```javascript
import Authereum from 'authereum

const authereum = new Authereum({
  networkName: 'mainnet',
  apiKey: 'y7edbh5uw4eTpLg8JAk7tHdzfMOT6wlB'
})

await authereum.login()
```
