Where do I find my Unkey Root Key?

Log in to your [**Unkey Dashboard**](https://app.unkey.com/), go to settings, and navigate to the 'Root Keys' section to generate a new key for this integration.

Is it safe to verify keys through this agent?

Yes. All communication is encrypted and your Root Key is stored securely. When verifying a user key, the agent transmits it directly to Unkey's verification endpoint to check validity.
