Documented steps
Personal key: POST https://console.neon.tech/api/v2/api_keys with body {"key_name": "my-key"} and Authorization: Bearer <existing personal key>
Organization key: POST https://console.neon.tech/api/v2/organizations/{org_id}/api_keys with body {"key_name": "orgkey"} — requires org admin
Project-scoped key: same org endpoint with body {"key_name": "project-key", "project_id": "<project-id>"} — grants member-level access to that single project only
Response includes numeric 'id' and the 'key' secret prefixed neon_api_key_* / neon_org_key_* / neon_project_key_* — store it immediately, it is shown only once
Revoke a key with DELETE /api/v2/api_keys/{key_id} (or the org equivalent); scopes: personal = all projects you can access, org = all org projects, project-scoped = one project
Known gotchas
Key secrets cannot be retrieved later — losing one means revoke + recreate
Personal keys stop working for org projects if the user is removed from the organization; project-scoped keys become invalid if the project is deleted or transferred out
Organization API key creation is rate limited to 10 requests per second — back off on bulk creation
Project-scoped keys cannot delete their project (member-level access) — a feature, use them for CI/CD
