# Settings

> Manage API keys, team members, billing, and account preferences

The Settings page is where you manage everything about your VLM Run account. It is organized into three sections: **[API Keys](https://app.vlm.run/dashboard/settings/api-keys)**, **[Team](https://app.vlm.run/dashboard/settings/organization)**, and **[Billing](https://app.vlm.run/dashboard/settings/billing)**.

## API Keys

Create and manage the API keys used to authenticate requests to the VLM Run API.

* **Create new keys** for different users and projects (coming soon).
* **Revoke keys** instantly if compromised or no longer needed.
* **View usage** per key to track which integration is consuming credits

<Warning>
  Treat API keys like passwords. Never commit them to source control or share them in plain text. Use environment variables or a secrets manager instead.
</Warning>

<Tip>
  Set your key as the `VLMRUN_API_KEY` environment variable so the Python SDK, Node.js SDK, and CLI pick it up automatically.
</Tip>

## Team

Manage who has access to your VLM Run workspace. All team members share access to skills, chat history, the Observe dashboard, and billing.

* **Invite a member** Send an email invitation to a new team member. They will receive a link to join your workspace.
* **View members** See the list of all current members along with their email and role.
* **Remove a member** Revoke a member's access to the workspace. Their API keys (if any) are also revoked.

## Billing

View your current plan, credit balance, and usage trends. Upgrade or downgrade your plan, and purchase additional credits directly from this panel. See [Pricing](/pricing) for full plan details and per-credit costs.

From the Billing panel you can:

* **View credit balance**: See how many credits remain in your current billing cycle and when the cycle resets.
* **Track usage trends**: A chart shows daily credit consumption so you can spot spikes or plan for scaling.
* **Upgrade your plan**: Move from Starter to Pro, or contact sales for an Enterprise agreement.
* **Purchase additional credits**: Buy top-up credit packs if you need more before your cycle resets.
* **View invoices**: Download past invoices for your records.
