## Create an indexing API key [#create-an-indexing-api-key]

Pushes authenticate with an API key of the **Indexing** class that carries the
`index:write` scope; add `index:status` to track ingestion and `index:delete`
to remove documents or replace a whole datasource. Create one under **Workspace settings > API keys**; the
raw key starts with `nv_eu_idx_` and is shown once. See
[Authentication](/docs/guides/authentication). Each request also names your
workspace id as `tenantId`, the id in your workspace's address in the app
(`/w/<workspace id>/...`), and it must be the workspace the key belongs to.
