70The Linux app signs in the same way as on macOS and Windows: with a claude.ai subscription, or through your organization's SSO. Desktop doesn't accept a Claude Console API key directly; use the [CLI](/docs/en/quickstart) for API-key authentication. For enterprise deployments that route Desktop to Google Cloud's Agent Platform or an LLM gateway, see [Claude Desktop on 3P](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/overview) and [network configuration](/docs/en/network-config).
