Anthropic API key: create, add credits, troubleshoot
Anthropic setup is usually quick, but failures can come from missing credits, incorrect keys, or rate limits. Use this flow to get stable responses.
1
Create Anthropic key
- Open the Anthropic console and create a new API key.
- Store it securely and add it as
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY. - Restart your agent runtime after saving the key.
2
Verify credits and usage controls
Confirm your account has available credits and usage policies allow your expected request volume.
3
Troubleshoot quickly
- authentication_error: key is missing, malformed, or from another account.
- rate_limit_error: reduce concurrency or increase plan limits.
- No response in app: ensure your agent is using Anthropic provider and key env var correctly.
