Reissuing an Application Key

You can reissue a key for an application in case it has been compromised, Application keys are established at the application level. If you reissue an application’s key, the old key is invalidated. This affects all APIs (that have the key validation policy applied) to which an application is registered. Every request to these APIs must use the new key to succeed. Requests using the old key are rejected. APIs without the key validation policy are not affected as these do not require a valid application key to pass requests.

To reissue an application key:

1. On the Applications List page, select the application for which you want to reissue an application key.
2. Click Reissue Key.
3. Click Yes.

A new application key is issued.
