44description: Create an Admin API key for your Claude Console or Claude Enterprise organization.

7An Admin API key authenticates every API in the **Admin** section of this guide: the [Admin API](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/manage-claude/admin-api), [Analytics APIs](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/manage-claude/analytics-api), [Compliance API](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/manage-claude/compliance-api), [Plugins API](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/manage-claude/plugins-api), [Claude Tag API](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/manage-claude/claude-tag-api), [Spend Limits API](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/manage-claude/spend-limits-api), [Usage and Cost API](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/manage-claude/usage-cost-api), and [Rate Limits API](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/manage-claude/rate-limits-api). You do not need a separate key for each API. The one exception is the Admin API’s service-account, federation-issuer, and federation-rule endpoints, which accept only an OAuth bearer token with the `org:admin` scope. See [Obtain an OAuth bearer token](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/manage-claude/admin-api#oauth-bearer-token).
