# Get the apiKeyId
The `apiKeyId` is a required parameter in any Coveo REST API operation that interacts with a single specific API key.

Use the [Get all API keys for this organization](https://platform.cloud.coveo.com/docs?urls.primaryName=AuthorizationServer#/Api%20Keys/rest_organizations_paramId_apikeys_get) operation to find the `apiKeyId` of an API key in a specific [Coveo organization](https://docs.coveo.com/en/185/).

**Request template**

```http
GET https://platform.cloud.coveo.com/rest/organizations/<MyOrganizationId>/apikeys HTTP/1.1

Accept: application/json
Authorization: Bearer <MyAccessToken>
```

In the request path, replace `<MyOrganizationId>` with [your organization ID](https://docs.coveo.com/en/148/).

In the `Authorization` HTTP header, replace `<MyAccessToken>` with an access token (API key or OAuth2 token) that grants you the privilege to view API keys in the target organization.
See [Get your Coveo access token](https://docs.coveo.com/en/123/) and [Get the privileges of an access token](https://docs.coveo.com/en/109/).

> **Note**
>
> It's impossible to authenticate this call using an API key, since an API key can't have the privilege to edit or view other API keys.

The body of a successful response contains information about all API keys in the target Coveo organization, if not already done.

To get the `apiKeyId`, check the response body for the `displayName` or `description` of the desired API key.
The `apiKeyId` is located under the `id` property of that API key object.

> **Note**
>
> The only time you can get the full unmasked `value` property of an API key is when you initially [create that key](https://docs.coveo.com/en/1718#create-an-api-key).
