# Get Wargear API Key

## Introduction

When connecting Wargear.net with Amber Signals you need to retrieve a **read-only API key** from your account. It is very important that the api key is only read only and we cannot do any moves in your games. This is no problem at the moment, because only read only keys are available!

## Step 1

Open [wargear.net](https://www.wargear.net/) and login into you account.

## Step 2

Go to **Settings ->** [**Account**](https://www.wargear.net/settings/account) and scroll to the bottom where you can see the api key starting with:

```
wg_ro_....
```

Copy the key and use it when you create the wargear.net service in your [Dashboard](https://ambersignals.com/dashboard).
