Generate New API Key
Generate New API Key is the wizard that mints a fresh credential for an integration, letting the admin name it, set scopes and capture the secret securely on creation. It enforces that secrets are shown once and access is least-privilege. Admins use it when onboarding a new partner or app.

Workflow
- Open MFI > Configuration > API / Integrations > Generate New API Key
- Name the integration and choose its owner
- Select the scopes and permissions to grant
- Generate the key and securely copy the secret shown
- Confirm the new key appears in the API Keys list
