# Create a platform API key

> Mints an additional platform API key for your platform — the create half of key rotation. The plaintext token is returned once in this response and never again; store it securely, then revoke the old key.



## OpenAPI

openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  description: >-
    Splendor is a search and retrieval API for your operational data. Ingest

    datasets — logs, documents, and structured records — and query them through
    one

    consistent interface that spans full-text, SQL, and semantic (vector)
    search.


    Every request authenticates with a bearer token and selects a workspace with
    the

    `X-Splendor-Tenant-Id` header. Read and query operations are available to
    any

    member; operations that create, change, or delete data require an admin
    role.


    All search modes return one shared envelope, and every result carries
    provenance

    back to the exact source object it came from.
