<summary><strong>How can I create a Hex API key?</strong></summary>

Cakewalk reads your Hex users with a workspace token. Use a workspace token rather than a personal access token: personal tokens must expire within 120 days and carry only your own permissions, while a workspace token can be created without an expiry.

1. Sign in to Hex as a workspace admin.
2. Open **User Settings** and go to **API keys** under the Account section.
3. Create a new **workspace token**. Only admins can create this type. Workspace tokens begin with `hxtw_`.
4. Give the token a recognizable name.
5. Leave the expiration unset so the sync continues without interruption.
6. Copy the token value.
7. Navigate back to Cakewalk and paste the token into the `API Key` field.

<summary><strong>Where can I find my <code>Hex Workspace URL</code>?</strong></summary>

Your Hex Workspace URL is your Hex web address ending with `/`, for example `https://app.hex.tech/`.

Leave out anything after `.tech/`.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.cakewalk.security/docs/human-access/connections-and-integrations/integration-guides/hex-technologies.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
