# ChannelApe

## Connection

Connections provide secure access to the integrated app that you use in a MESA workflow. Your ChannelApe connection securely links your workflows with your ChannelApe account.

When you're setting up your first workflow with ChannelApe, you'll need to create a connection by contacting ChannelApe's support team via *<support@channelape.com>* to obtain your private API key.

Once you obtain your private API key, you can paste the API key into your workflow connection's API Key field.
