The Anthropic connection uses an Admin API Key to gather cost and usage data for your organization. In CloudZero you can view, track, and forecast your Anthropic costs, broken down by project, model, operation, and more.

Prerequisites

You must create an Admin Key.

ℹ️

Only organization members with the Admin Role have the authority to create and use Admin API keys.

To create an Admin Key, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the Anthropic Console: console.anthropic.com.
2. Sign in to your Anthropic account.
3. Navigate to API Keys.
   Look for API Keys in the sidebar or settings menu. You may have to navigate to API Keys then Admin keys.
4. Click the button to Create Admin Key.
5. Name your key with a descriptive name.
6. When you have created the API key, copy it immediately and store it securely.
   You will not be able to see the key again.
