# API tokens and keys

### Portal Token

The token you get when creating a project on the [developer portal](https://docs.coherence.io/0.5.2/get-started/create-an-account).

You paste it in the *Project Settings*.

### Runtime Key

Once you have pasted the portal token successfully, you need to fetch the runtime key as well.&#x20;

You can fetch the [**Runtime Key**](https://docs.coherence.io/0.5.2/api-reference/cloud-api/api-tokens-keys) by clicking on the down-arrow button on the right side of the input field.
