## What you get

With a personal weclapp key, every change your AI assistant from wals.pro AI 4 weclapp makes for you shows your name in weclapp instead of a shared integration user. Your own weclapp permissions apply as well: what you may not do in weclapp, the assistant may not do for you either.

## Store your own key

1. Create an API token for your own user in weclapp. Where to find it is explained in [Connect weclapp](https://ai.wals.pro/help/weclapp-connection).
2. Open [your account](https://ai.wals.pro/account?lang=en) and go to **My ERP keys**.
3. Choose the workspace and paste the token into the **weclapp API key** field.
4. Click **Save key**. The platform checks the key with weclapp and reports **Key tested and saved.**
5. Use **Test** to check the connection again at any time. If your AI client showed a message about a required key before, reconnect it afterwards.

This works in every role, including Viewer. You can replace your key yourself at any time; only an admin can remove it.

## Require personal keys as an admin

1. Open the [company profile](https://ai.wals.pro/company?lang=en) and go to **ERP keys**.
2. Keep **Allow personal weclapp keys** switched on and switch on **Require a personal weclapp key**.
3. Check the members listed without their own key: these members cannot connect after saving until they have stored their key.
4. Click **Save changes**.

If you switch off **Allow personal weclapp keys**, everyone works through the workspace's shared key. Stored personal keys stay saved but are not used.

## Remove a key as an admin

1. Open [Users](https://ai.wals.pro/users?lang=en) and click **Open member page** for the member.
2. In **Personal weclapp key**, click **Remove key**.

## Good to know

- Removing a key does not take away anyone's permissions in weclapp. Revoke the token itself in weclapp if needed.
- Without your own key, the workspace's shared key applies. If your admin requires a personal key, there is no such fallback.
- Personal keys are available on every paid plan, not on the Free plan.
- Previews and approvals work as before. A personal key does not change the rule that every change only runs after your approval.
