# Secrets

> Use secrets to centrally and securely manage your API keys.

Lumi's **Secrets** allow you to store and manage your API keys in one place, whether added during a conversation or manually in the workspace.

## Add API Keys

### In Conversation

You can ask to add an API key directly during a conversation.  In **Agent Mode**, a secure input card will automatically appear, allowing you to safely enter your API key.

<Warning>
  Please **do not** enter your API key directly into the chat message. Always use the provided secure card.
</Warning>

### In Workspace

You can manually add new API keys in Workspace - Secrets.

* Each key must have a **unique name**. If you try to add a new key with the same name as an existing one, the new key will **replace** the old one.
* Multiple API keys can be saved, allowing flexible use across different scenarios.

<Note>
  Only letters, underscores (`_`), hyphens (`-`), and numbers are allowed. The name must include **at least one letter**.
</Note>

## Manage Keys

* You can view all saved API keys at any time in Workspace - Secrets.
* When a key is no longer needed, you can delete it directly to keep your workspace organized and secure.

## Call the APIs

* All API saved in the project's Secret panel can be directly called and used within that project.
* You’ll need to clearly specify the **exact API name** you want Lumi to use during the conversation.
