Your NGAZE API key is used to securely connect your website (via the NGAZE WordPress plugin or other integrations) to your NGAZE account. This key identifies your account and enables NGAZE features on your website.
What the NGAZE API Key Is Used For #
Your API key allows NGAZE to:
- Authenticate your website
- Enable NGAZE website features
- Sync website performance and SEO data
- Connect the NGAZE WordPress plugin to your account
Each account (and in some cases, each location) may have its own API key.
How to Find Your NGAZE API Key #
Step 1: Log in to NGAZE
Go to your NGAZE dashboard and log in using your account credentials.
Step 2: Go to Settings
From the left navigation menu, click:
Settings
Step 3: Open API Settings
Within Settings, navigate to:
API or API Keys
(The exact label may vary depending on your account setup.)
Step 4: Copy Your API Key
You’ll see your NGAZE API key displayed on the screen.
- Click Copy
- Keep this key secure
- Do not share it publicly
This is the key you’ll paste into the NGAZE WordPress plugin > Settings > API
Where to Use the API Key #
Your NGAZE API key is typically entered in:
- NGAZE WordPress plugin settings
- Other NGAZE-supported integrations (if applicable)
You only need to enter the key once per website.
Important Security Notes #
- Treat your API key like a password
- Do not email or post it publicly
- Only share it with trusted administrators or the NGAZE team
- If you believe it’s been compromised, contact support
Common Questions #
Can I regenerate my API key?
API key regeneration depends on your account permissions. Contact support if you need to rotate or regenerate a key.
What happens if I use the wrong API key?
The website will not connect, and NGAZE features will not activate.
Do I need a different API key for each website?
This depends on your NGAZE account and location setup. Some accounts use one key per account; others use location-specific keys.
Troubleshooting #
API Key Is Invalid or Not Working
- Make sure the entire key is copied (no missing characters)
- Check for extra spaces before or after the key
- Confirm the key belongs to the correct NGAZE account
- Verify you’re using the key for the correct website/location
When to Contact Support #
Contact support if:
- You cannot find the API key in Settings
- The API key is rejected repeatedly
