<Note>
|
|
**Local provider setup.** The key you add here is for your desktop app. OpenWork remains free, and you do not need to sign in to OpenWork Cloud. To manage Anthropic access for a team, use [a managed LLM provider](/cloud/share-with-your-team/managed-llm-provider).
|
|
</Note>
|
|
|
|
Anthropic has disabled 3rd party authentication for their OAuth. In order to continue supporting Anthropic based models in OpenWork, we now default to manual API key entry for Anthropic.
|
|
That means you create the key in Anthropic first, then paste it into OpenWork.
|
|
|
|
## Before you start
|
|
|
|
- You need an Anthropic account at [platform.claude.com](https://platform.claude.com).
|
|
- Your Claude subscription and your Anthropic API billing are not always the same thing, so make sure API access is enabled on your Anthropic account.
|
|
- Treat the key like a password. Anthropic will only show the full value when you create it.
|
|
|
|
If this key should be managed for a team, add Anthropic once under `Models > Bring your Own Keys` in OpenWork Cloud. Members receive it through `Settings > Cloud Providers` instead of pasting it into each workspace separately.
|
|
|
|
## Create the key in Anthropic
|
|
|
|
1. Sign in at [platform.claude.com](https://platform.claude.com).
|
|
2. Open the `API Keys` page.
|
|
|
|
<Frame>
|
|
|
|
</Frame>
|
|
|
|
3. Click `Create Key`.
|
|
4. Give the key a recognizable name like `OpenWork`.
|
|
|
|
<Frame>
|
|
|
|
</Frame>
|
|
|
|
5. Copy the new key right away. It should look like `sk-ant-...`.
|
|
|
|
## Add the key to OpenWork
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Open `Settings` in OpenWork.
|
|
2. Go to `Connect Provider` and choose `Anthropic`.
|
|
3. Paste the API key into the manual key field.
|
|
4. Save the provider, then choose an Anthropic model in chat.

|

|
|
## Common issues
|
|
|
|
- If the key is rejected, make sure you copied the full value without extra spaces.
|
|
- If you cannot see `API Keys`, check that your Anthropic account has API access and billing set up.
|
|
- If you lose the key, create a new one in Anthropic and update OpenWork with the new value.
|
|
|
|
The same general process applies to most providers that use manual API keys: create the key in the provider's developer console, copy it once, and paste it into OpenWork.
