How does ClearRun store my API key?
ClearRun stores only a SHA-256 hash of each key, plus its first 12 characters so you can tell keys apart. The full key is shown once, when you create it, and can't be shown again.

What that means for you
- Copy the key when you create it.
- If you lose it, create a new one.
- The keys page lists each key by its first characters and name, never the whole key.
On your computer
clearrun login saves the full key in a private file in your home folder. See Where does clearrun login save my API key?
