The basics

What is an API key?

An API key is like a password that lets Synfliq talk to your chosen AI provider on your behalf. When you connect your key, your provider account is billed directly for the AI calls Synfliq makes — at standard Anthropic pricing with no additional markup.

Synfliq never sees your billing details, payment information, or AI provider account credentials. The key itself is stored encrypted and used only to make requests on your behalf.


Security

Is it safe?

Your API key is handled with the same care as a password. Here's what we do to keep it secure.

Encrypted at rest Your key is stored using AES-256-CBC encryption. It is never stored in plain text.
No logging of your content Synfliq does not log your prompts, uploaded documents, or generated diagram content.
Revoke anytime Delete or disable the key in console.anthropic.com and access is revoked immediately.
No training on your data Your AI provider does not use API inputs for model training by default. Your content stays yours.

Step by step

How to get an API key

Takes about two minutes. You'll need an account with your chosen AI provider (Anthropic or Google) — both are free to create.

01
Go to your AI provider console (Anthropic or Google)
Visit console.anthropic.com and sign in, or create a free account if you don't have one.
02
Open API Keys
Click API Keys in the left sidebar. You may need to add a payment method before creating a key.
03
Create a new key
Click Create Key and give it a name — we suggest Synfliq so it's easy to identify later.
04
Copy the key
The key is only shown once — copy it now and keep it somewhere safe. It will start with:
sk-ant-…
05
Paste it into Synfliq
Follow the steps below to connect it in the app.

For IT teams

Common questions

Information for IT administrators and procurement teams evaluating Synfliq.

The process descriptions and documents you upload for diagram generation. No other data — no user account details, no usage analytics, no metadata — is transmitted to the AI provider.

AI providers do not use API inputs for model training by default. See your provider's usage policy for details.

AI processing occurs on your provider's servers. See anthropic.com/privacy for data residency and processing location details relevant to your jurisdiction.

Yes. Any valid API key from a supported provider (Anthropic or Google) works with Synfliq, including keys issued under enterprise contracts or reseller agreements. Billing flows through your existing Anthropic relationship.

Delete or disable the API key in console.anthropic.com. Access is revoked immediately — Synfliq cannot make any further API calls once the key is invalid.
