Delete an API Key

When you delete a key, components using the key in their integration setup lose their connection with Observability. Events sent from those components will be rejected with a 401 code.

You will need to update your integrations with a new, valid key to continue to send events.

Use caution when deleting keys. This action is permanent. It cannot be undone and you cannot retrieve the key. Any scripts or agents that use the key will be unable to send events to Observability.

How to

From the API Keys page, select Delete for the key you want to remove.
