Description Generate a new API key for a wallet address. Each wallet can only have one active API key at a time. If an API key already exists for the wallet, it must be revoked first before generating a new one.
Important Notes Save your API key immediately! The API key is only shown once during generation. It cannot be retrieved later. If you lose your key, you’ll need to revoke it and generate a new one.
