Cannot see my API key

[former_member1043974]

Hello all, I am new to SAP world. I wanted to explore the API for integration with my web application. I created a SAP API Business hub profile. When I try to get my API key, (Button: Show API Key), I am getting the message "We cannot display the key. Please try again later". Any help on this will be appreciated.

Regards,

Jeo

I'm having the exact same issue and Google gives no answers on how to resolve this. Even with what Denys suggested gives me the same issue, so you're not alone with this. Did you ever find out what the issue was, or are you still stuck where you left?

Kind regards,
Jussi

Hi all,
I just signed up today to SAP API Business Hub and experiencing the same problem/error message:

We cannot display the key. Please try again later.

Tried several times later, but it does not work. Is it a timing problem? Has anyone experience how long "later" should be?

Best regards,

Marcel

Hi Jeo,

Just tried for the SAP S/4HANA Cloud Business Partner OData API but found no issues

• https://api.sap.com/api/API_BUSINESS_PARTNER/resource

Do you get a different result? (Using Chrome browser)

Thank you for your response, Denys. Still I am getting same error. Tried in chrome as well as edge.error.png

It seems like the API Keys are provisioned with a delay. Login in api.sap.com with an S-user (Types Partner or Customer) or a P-user, click "Show API Key". If you never logged into api.sap.com before, then there's the error "We cannot display the key. Please try again later". api.sap.com needs some time to generate the key. Wait for a couple of days and try again.

vladimir_latyshenko , I checked the user type - it is a P-user. Does it mean, that I am at a dead end? 😞

Marcel! You need to wait for a couple of days for the key.

Thank you.

Today just now, I was able to get my API key, without doing anything. Hope it will work in future too.

Thank you all for your support and response.

Works for me too, so whatever they did on SAP side fixed the issue 🙂
